Got my shoes put on. Waiting on my BMW caps to get in. This is the only pic I got off of my iPhone. The quality is good, better then I thought they would be. I've read a review that was not too great, but I think they are worth the cost for sure! The fitment is perfect. No vibrations at all. I am running General Exclaim UHP 245/35/19 up front and 275/30/19 out back, no rubbing issues at all. I'm very happy with my choice and going with 19's is a big difference over 20". The performance is much, much better! Let me know your thoughts.

BTW: Info on these wheels sourced from Trinity, Myfootsmells, John@Eurorev. Thank You!

Special Thanks, goes to Mike@F1Autohaus for the VMR 710's. GREAT SELLER!

Really think 19's give better performance? I was thinking 20's for both looks and performance.
