I can vouch as a vendor who has carried VMR since their inception that the quality and durability of the wheels are very good. Most of our customers run these daily so they are built to withstand daily use and abuse. You do need to care for them like any other aftermarket wheel requires and of course they will chip if you are using a metal impact wrench to install the bolts. With that said, we continue to receive positive feedback and as evidenced by the amount of wheels they presell.
we sell both the VMR and Alufelgen and there are some distinct differences between the wheels that customers usually consider when purchasing wheels for the E46 M3.
1. VMR makes the VB3 in a 10" rear
2. Aluflelgen is the most accurate of representation of the real CSL wheel
3. Alufelgen has 19 - 8.5 et35 which is a little bit more aggressive than the VMR VB3
4. VMR has the 19 - 9.5" et33 which some/many have opted for an aggressive front in combination with the 10.0" rears that only VMR has.
personally, i really like the 19 - 9.5/10.0 combination, if you can pull it off, although some work is needed.
Also, if this is for non-M E46, VMR has the best fitments, aggressive kind or the regular plug and play kind.
This may sound like a dumb question, but is there a way to tell which ones you have? My car came with CSL replica wheels, but there are no markings on the inside to say what brand. They are 8.5 front, 9.5 rear, and with BMW center caps.
Sorry for interupting this thread but crimson whats up with your BS SIG?????
"We will never forget but will forgive" Are you Serious ???? You do realize that the people who did this are terrorist and do not care if we forgive or not. They will kill your family in a instint if they could. People like you need to wake up and realize that this is very real.
ok so wtf is wrong with everybody and running wheels with stretched tires???? All those aggressive fit VMR wheels have stretched tires and its soooo lame! Get some wheels and tires that fit properly...and the term "stance" is sooo wack and shouldnt be in the BMW world IMO..LOL...ok rant over...with that said
Alufelgen CS7 > VMR VB3 in terms of best looking rep csl wheels HANDS DOWN!
