VMR Wheels are on!

It's raining, my car is filthy, and it's finals week so I don't have time to do better than this picture..but take it as a sneak peek. More to come.

PS. Please excuse my poor landscaping, you can't expect too much from a group of college guys haha.

Hello, did these have to be costomized in order to fit or do they make them in the correct bolt patter and offset for us now?
Thank you

Cheers! Mike

They make the correct bolt pattern and offset but I had to have the center bores re-drilled to 66.6. Supposedly they make them in 66.6 but according to VMR they don't really stock them. Also, the center caps didn't fit over the hub on my 45 offset front wheels so I had to modify those as well.

All in all pretty simple modifications to get a unique look for a MB.

I have. I pulled the lower door chrome trim off literally the second I got home from having the wheels installed. Now I'm not sure what I want to do about the window trim. I figure I'll get some vinyl and try it, if I don't like it I'll pull it off.
