Do you have any profile shots of your car with the VMR 18s?

Those 18" VMRs look good, better than I thought. I would also like to see some side shots if you have a chance

Thanks for posting this! I'm actually looking for gunmetal VMR710s in 18" and this pushes me over from 19". I think the color would compliment my Carbon Black well.

It's amazing how much bigger the 18" VMRs look than the stock 18s. monnone, I think the pics of them on your car might sell a few sets . Your car looks very sinister, I like it a lot.

Thanks! I agree, the v710s do look larger that's why I went with the 18s. Plus tire options are greater an cheaper to boot. A
