Word. Car looks great man, but we need more details on the wheels! Any other sizes available? Colors? Your holding out on us :cheers:

The wheels are certainly not HRE or BBS.

I am sure many of you are aware of a company called VMR Wheels. Usually German tuner wheels but do some research and I think you will find a connection between the RTR and VMR.

Great wheels, thought about using them on my BMW, but didn't want to mess with it. It atleast has 18" wheels as is and are under warranty.

My only concern is that it seems like these RTR wheels stick out a bit too far for my liking. Maybe 33mm is all that will work, not sure, don't have any experience in this area with the 2010/11.

Sweet ride though, hope everything works out the way you want it to!!

looks of the wheels is great, imo they work better with the Kona-maybe the darker colors who knows, only seen them on Kona and GB

it may be an illusion because stingers car is not lowered yet but the rears stick out too much
Kona car is definitely lowered, rears look where they should
fronts look good on both cars
+33mm offset 9.5 inch width ok for front but would have thought it would have been between +40mm-45mm for the rear because the rear track is already .6 inches wider

Still looks to me like they will rub the fender edge on hard undulations.

Oh yes, I understand that, but if it is so stiff that it can't dip down low enough to rub then I wouldn't want to drive it or ride in it.

Stuff I wish I bought when I could get it (for the '82) now is either non-existent or very expensive.
