The car shown in those pictures is running the 18x8 ET42 square setup with 225/40/18 front and 245/35/18 rear tires. These are also offer in 19" fitments with recommended specs of 19x8.5 ET35 and 19x9.5 ET45.

I'd be more interested in the 19's.
Do you have the weight specs on these sizes as well?

I do have official weights! These are our lightest 19" offerings!

I want to run square VMR V703 18x9.5et45 on my 2014 M235i (RWD) w/o rolling the fenders... is this possible?

I can add camber plates if necessary. I want to be able to run square 245 setup (245 federal rsrr's for now)


Edit: also what about VMR v710s - 18x9.5et45 (or 18x9.5et50) square, same question - possible to run them without rolling fenders?

If you want to run a 245 square setup, the 8.5 ET35 would be a much better choice. A 9.5" wheel is too wide for the front of a 2 Series and would not clear the suspension without sticking way outside the fender. I would recommend 18x8.5 ET35 with a 245/35/18 tire. It may take a little camber up front, but would be just fine in the rear.

Looks great! The wait is always worth it once you see it on the car!
With this set up wheel wise, will a 235/40/18 be ok as far as clearance/rubbing???

I've seen customers run the 235 front with an ET35, but there have been a few reports of rubbing. For a guaranteed rub free fitment with a 235 tire, we recommend the ET45 with a 3mm spacer.

Looking at the 718, 18x8.5 ET 35 and 18x9.5 ET 45 to run 235/40/18 and 255/35/18. This looks like the best option for no rubbing / poking? Any chance I can get pricing? VMR site shows 718 is limited - 710 is my second choice.

Is that weight for the 18's based a squared set?
Do you offer these staggered, if so, what is the weight for the rear wheels?

Yes, the 18x8 ET42 V804 weighs 18x5 lbs. They are not offered in staggered fitments at this time, but the square setup will still allow you to run up to a 245/35/18 rear tire.

I've got 18x8.5 et35 V801 square setup with 225s. Can I go up to 245 square without any issues in front and rear with stock suspension?

I don't think the rears would give you any trouble, but the fronts might. A 245/35/18 may require a rolled front fender.

Does anyone know, if I can fit a 235 tyre up front on the V801 in 8.5j ET43? with stock suspension for sure, but what about a KW suspension, with moderat lowering (20mm)?
I have seen the 225 tyre on that setup, and its pretty flush. Pic attached with 225 fitted. Lowering on that pic is not moderate btw. its pretty deep. My setup would be 10-20mm higher than that.

Are the 18 inch V801's heavy?

And are they offered in staggered fitment?

I absolutely love the look of these wheels.

No, the V801 are FF wheels, which are lighter than normal ones.
U can get a staggered setup ofc.

The V801 is relatively lightweight for being a full face mesh design. They work incredibly well on the F22!

Is there a reason, those wheels are only available in Anthracite Metallic? I live in Switzerland. Black would be nice to have.

I would recommend reaching out to VMR Wheels Eu to inquire about the Titanium Black Shadow. They may be able to source a set for you! This isn't a finish that is offered through our European branch.
