The VMR VB3 in the 19x9.5 ET22 do weigh roughly 28 lbs. The weights on other size/width/offset combos will be lighter of course.

These (18x9.5ET45 and 19x9.5ET45) are the ideal offsets for e90 LCI (I had VMR VB3 with these offsets, look at the picture in my signature). There are VERY few affordable lightweight wheels with LCI-friendly offsets.

These wheels look very interesting. I actually like the thicker spokes, I didn't really like the VMR thinner spokes.

They will now be available in the 19x10 ET38 rear fitment. The wheels must be pre ordered and are due to arrive toward the end of February to early March as an ETA.

any info on 18x9.5 offset changes? I am on the GB for the apex but I still kinda want to hold out for these lol

[ModBargains.com]

There will be no changes to the 18x9.5 offset choices. Sportline can also machine the 18x9.5 ET22 to an ET28 to fit the E90 pre lci and e92/e93 pre-lci/lci as well.

Any photos of the 18x9.5 et28? I am on the fence still... Any ideas on fitament on an e92 pre lci? Im at stock ride height, but dont want it to stick out too far with the square tires I have...
