VB3s look awesome! I almost bought them before I decided to go with some 20s instead

They also do 19x9.5 and 19x10 for this wheel
which 1 should I go for?

I just found out they do the VB3 in hyperblack as well but not in the 710
hyperblack will have a contrast on my car compare to Gunmetal

My car is this colour

If anyone is interested, I have two rear 19x9.5s for sale for only $200. Wheels have no curb rash but have a small chip on lip. Wheels will come with tires but will need to be replaced soon. Located in socal. Pics of them on my car:

Didn't have much time to take any photos after mounting them (i'll be taking more pics soon). Here is a comparison. I know its not a great representation because of the lens I was using but you should still see the difference in the concavity. I also wanted to have more sidewall which I was able to achieve as well. Oh and this is on stock sport suspension.


Before: 19x9.5 - 275/30/19


After: 19x10 - 285/30/19
