APEX does not recommend a sealer if you track your car because it nullifies the knurling on these wheels which is meant to prevent the tires from sliding on the rims during heavy track duty, I do not track my car so i don't have an issue putting a light sealer .

Please refer to my thread for Apex's answer on the procedure to do to address this issue because it is highly likely you will have it since i had it on 3 of my tires

Thanks

Update on my Air Loss issue , Did add a light sealer today and run check ups 3 times and so far so good , Pressure id holding thus far, i do not track my car so no need for the knurling in my case ,I'll keep you posted

Finger crossed

Yes, it has stock suspension.
I went upside on tires 255/35/19 in front and 285/35/19 in rear.
Tires are Bridgestone RE-71RS.

Nice pics! Can you share your suspension, spacers, any rubbing issues? I’ve got a similar set form the group buy. Haven’t put them on yet.

Thank you! Car is sitting on H&R coils (stock M2CS adaptive suspension dampers), no spacers or other mods for the fit. I also did the Apex stud kit and nuts. I got mine from the group buy as well. No rubbing anywhere.

Anyone know if VS5RS 19* 9.5 et 22 and 19*10.5 et45 will fit on the OG M2 ? I don't want to use spacers or camber plates. Lowered on kw v3 . Will likely use 255/35 and 275/35 tires. Thanks !

19x9.5 and 19x10.5 is a popular fitment for our M2s.

Anyone have photos of 10" and 11" width on our cars?

If so, any issues with this fitment lowered?

It's doable, but the front needs quite a bit of camber to fit without rubbing which means a set of aftermarket adjustable camber plates. You'll often need spacers with our 10" ET25 wheels as well, but the spacer width depends on how you have your suspension configured. You can also get rubbing in the rear on the liners depending on the tire. I'd really only recommend this setup for a modified car, lowering springs alone aren't going to be enough to comfortably run it if you aren't running stretched tires.

Some examples of this setup:

19x10 ET25 front, 19x11 ET44 rear - Brushed Clear VS-5RS
275/30-19 front, 305/30-19 rear - Falken RT660
3mm front spacer

Suspension was MCS single adjustables and I believe this customer had some scrubbing in the rear on track that day.





Full Gallery

18" setup (Wont clear usdm M2C/2NH brakes)

18x10 ET25 front, 18x11 ET44 rear - Anthracite SM-10RS
275/35-18 front, 305/35-18 rear - Nitto NT01

So I'm currently running the stock 437m wheels with 5mm spacers all around, lowered on JRZ RS Pro coilovers. Before I was running the often recommended 12/15 combo but found it rubbed.

Now contemplating getting some VS-5RS. What sizes in 19" would people recommend? 9 and 10 width? Or 9.5 and 10.5? What ET?

Your car looks perfect! What size width and offset are you running front and rear?

Looking to get a similar set for my CS on coils.

Thanks! They are 19x9.5 ET28/19x10.5 ET45… The setup is VERY clean and I like how light it is. The CS with a slightly lower stance is just perfect to me!
