MStyle are a good company - as Sunny's said already, contact Raj or Paul.

They might be showing that they can get hold VMR710 wheels, but I doubt they would be in stock and if that's the case, they'll have the same issues (delays) trying to source a set as you would going direct to the States.

Just leave a refundable deposit, if he doesn't come up with the goods in the time specified you get your deposit back.

If that's what he says, there's no reason to disbelieve him. As Will says, give a deposit, make sure it's refundable, and ask Raj to commit to a reasonable time frame beyond which you'll ask for your money back.

they also recommended to get 8.5j for the front and 9.5j for the back....this would not cause any rubbing or any other problems would it?

Depends on what offsets they're suggesting. It can cause rubbing, especially the 9.5J on the back if the wheels are specced incorrectly. I'll work out what offset you need for it to work properly.

The ET's on the 225's are 37 front (8J rim) & 39 rear (9J rim),I'm assuming you are looking at the E92.

Most of the CSL reps and the VMR 710 wheels that MStyle carry have an offset of ET44 front and ET27 rear and the rims are generally 18 or 19 x 8.5 front and 18 or 19 x 9.5 rear.

The front will be no problem and you could get away with a 5mm spacer with a 235 tyre or 10mm spacer with a 225 tyre to fill the arch out more.

The rear is where you may have a problem as ET27 is not E92 friendly, you will probably be ok on 255's, but 265's are likely to rub with passengers in the rear or going rapidly over undulating road surfaces.

Thanks for the info mate....how much do the spacers cost if you do not mind me asking and what if i get the arches rolled instead?

just to clarify, I would use the spacers for the front just to fill the arch out more right?
