As the Ole' man :D (motordavid) up top said "not pitching the wheel", but I can tell you VMR wheels are some of the most popular among the M3 community. They are great on the track and look good. The weight certifications are a big deal when looking for a track wheel. I say go for it :thumbup:..........Phil

VMR are garbage, do not buy. Most the people on the M3 forums that buy them are Bimmer newbs. Here's a recent post (December 2011, Golf MkVI Forum) that will be educational ->
Do VMR wheels chip easy? Attn: VMR - VW GTI MKVI Forum / VW Golf R Forum / VW Golf MKVI Forum / VW GTI Forum - Golfmk6.com

Take pics!
I haven't seen many setups with offset info so that would definitely help.

Here you go, not the greatest pics and my car's a little dirty (and the plastic parts could use a good detail) but here's my current setup. Rotiform NUE monoblocks, 20X10F and 20X11R with 35mm offset. Here's a crappy driveway pic:

If I had the non-sport wheels, I would probably have gone 20X10 all the way around with 275s. But since mine had the 11s in the rear with the flares, I "had" to keep the staggered setup. Hope this helps!
