Hyper Black looks AMAZING IMO
I just looked at their products and they only have a 5x112 bolt pattern in 8.5, but the Linea Corse has it in 5x112 8.5-10 so im assuming that many people want to have a staggered fitment.

Yep, 19x8.5 F and 19x9.5 R with BFG KDW II's. I also painted them satin black and took the chrome "rivets" out. I still need some new center caps because the previous owner dented them all up somehow but the size that fits this wheel is kind of hard to come by.

They might actually be 10" i never measured them, the guy I bought them from just told me they were 9.5. I just have 10mm spacers all the way around.

I called and they said they can do anything from 8-10. I'm personally gonna do 8 up front and 9.5 in the back. Do you like the look of the wheel better then the Linea Corse? The Linea Corse only comes in hyper silver which is a bummer.

What do you mean if i like the look of the wheel better than the Linea Corse? OH wait you mean the other reps that come in Hyper black right? I like both but I want to know the price of the Varrstoen before i make any type of decision. I think i would rather go with Silver instead of hyper black though.

It's a toss up, I'm either going to color match it to the car or cover it in matching carpet.
Sorry about the thread hijack Dr NPZ

Hey guys I emailed Varrstoen and for those LM reps and they dont do 5x112 i asked if they could have it in 19x8.5 and 19x10 and here is their answer

"The best we can do is get the 19’s 5x114 and re drill to 5x112 but they are all 19x9.5 19x10.5"
