Derek, Id be interested in your rims but what you are asking is the same price as brand new ones from modbargins. With miles on the rims, they should be priced lower....

I need them gone, name your price, but do not forget mine come with the center caps and M logos. I paid 1069 for these plus 99$ shipping 2 weeks ago, these are 950 shipped, not quite the same price as **********s.

any gap sucks balls, but for the time being... the offset + wider rim vs OEM help push the wheels closer to fenders which makes for a better flush look.

Suspension is a must on ANY stock ride, so that is to be expected to achieve the look we all so much admire

ST Coils will be my next mod for sure, but for now on just rims alone, im super stoked with the look.

Thanks. It looks like the cs7 are a 9 width. The vb3 is a 9.5 width. I may go with the wider rim

Yes you get the wider rim, but the offsets are not exactly 1 series specific.

I love vb3's, but not having to worry bout rubbing when lowered is what sold me on the cs7's.

Whatever you end up choosing is a win, win.

If you want more information on the cs7's - **********s.com is top notch.
