Papa needs some new shoes!

Got my wheels in just now! 18" Hyper Black VB3!
Rear:






Garage is too packed at this time to take proper photos of all 4. Each wrapped in BFGoodrich GForce T/A KDW. According to the C&D test they sound pretty good. Pretty new from the looks of them. Anyone ever ran these tires? Would like some input in comparison to the Conti Contact ones on my stock rims...

Fronts: 18x8.5 ET ?? 225/40
Rears: 18x9.5 ET ?? 275/35

how do I find out what the offsets are?

I will be putting these on this weekend when I get some time (busy week) and take some pics!

007, am hypothesizing that u got a good deal on these from a fellow zposter no? when i was in singapore, i'd a chance to view and test drive an interlagos blue with gunmetal powdercoated stock oem wheels. imo, it loses the contrast that the silver finish gives to the overall appearance of the car.

nevertheless, i've no doubt these will look great post up pictures this weekend!

Yeah I really like the gunmetal look but I like the way silver sets off the blue and vice versa. I think the hypr black will look just right.

And yes i got these from the forum...

Great looking wheels, pretty big stagger though.

245 would be better for the front.
There should be a marking somewhere on the backside of the wheel, a two digit number for the offset. If there isn't, you'll just have to guess what it is based on how they fit. Or if it is a current model, perhaps you can ask the people who sell them.

yeah i was thinking it was pretty over the top, but the tires came with the rims, so i'm complaining right now. I might track the car once before the year is over, sso for now they're cosmetic.

I'll make sure to look again on the inside for the offset number, didn't notice it last night. I'll be mounting them and going to get them balanced and aligned properly as well.

I bought these same wheels, in silver, direct from Velocity Motoring (company that sells them). Call them and ask for the correct offsets for your car.

They were able to match the OEM sizes and offsets for my Z4M roadster with the VB3. They were also surprisingly inexpensive.

You'll enjoy those goodyear tires.

Yes pics pls!!!

I am thinking of getting the same exact 18 Hyperblack VB3s for my blue Z4MC, 19s would definitely look better but there are a lot more tyre choices for 18s and Ive seen 18 VB3s on some member cars and they still look pretty damn good.
