VMR VB3 CSL Hyperblack 19x8.5, 19x10 on BSM E90

NiVeDh · 05-05-2010, 01:39 PM

Recently bought a set of VMR VB3 CSLs in hyperblack finish. Thanks to Jurrian@EAS for making it a simple, painless transaction!

Buy my OEM 162s w/ Michelin PS2 ZP and 20mm Eibach spacers: http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=358360

Specifications are:
Fronts: 19x8.5 ET40
Rears: 19x10 ET38

Tires are Hankook Ventus V12 Evo K110:
Fronts: 245/35/19
Rears: 275/30/19

I put the wheels on my Black Sapphire Metallic pre-LCI E90 with Sport Package (ZSP). The rears are extremely concave and look amazing in person - can't really capture it in pictures.

Here are the pictures for your enjoyment:

Looks great! Any rubbing? I see you have stock sport suspension. Thought about lowering it at all on these?

Verbiage · 05-05-2010, 01:44 PM

Looks wonderful, congratulations!

See, not everything needs a drop all the time

No rubbing at all. I almost had rubbing on the inside on a suspension component - details here. They rubbed a lot with a 20mm spacer (effective ET18 offset) but no rubbing whatsoever with the ET38. In fact, I can probably even add a 5mm spacer with no issues. I was going to get some H&R Sport springs but I can't really afford any more mods for a while since I'm starting grad school soon. I don't think the wheel gap is too bad with the ZSP springs.

Looks like you can change that part of your sig, too

Wheel gap isn't bad at all IMO.

i like it

issabmw · 05-05-2010, 01:58 PM

Wow, those rims set your car on fire. Congrats on another spectacular looking e90

issabmw · 05-05-2010, 01:59 PM

Nice tips too

raceyBMW · 05-05-2010, 02:22 PM

Nice! I have same setup as you, different tires though. Looks like the Hankooks give better rim protection than my Falken FK452s.

You rub at all up front with the 245s?

really weird thing is I had hankook v12 evo 245s up front and had to have them replaced with 235 (but I do have an e92). Glad you aren't rubbing

Lumsden · 05-05-2010, 04:46 PM

Except mine do on stock sport suspension in the front only (245/35R19). Maybe its just a coupe thing?

yamazaho · 05-05-2010, 05:24 PM

Glad to see you got them wheels mounted no problem, very nice.

BTW am I seeing BMW stickers on all your headrests????

JayReplay · 05-05-2010, 05:49 PM

I really like em! Looks perfect on Black Sapphire

kantonaxtwoo · 05-05-2010, 05:54 PM

Do you guys like the stickers or no? I've gotten nothing but compliments from people who have seen them in person.
