The sample sets brought over for BMW were all brushed clear, so I don't have 19" BMW examples in Satin Black, but here are a few 18" shots and a few other photos from other chassis:


I hope this helps!

I assume you can use the BMW center caps? Are these more concave in shape over the BMW 763M rims? Thanks.

Yes, standard BMW centercaps will snap in to these wheels. Concavity is a more difficult question to answer as we are offering a number of fitments that can work on the M2 and there isn't a straight measure of concavity we can use to compare all of the Sprint wheels against the 763Ms. On the whole, to my eye the 763Ms look to be comparable to our "profile 2" category of wheels which for the M2 include 19x9 ET30 & 19x9.5 ET28. Our profile 3 wheels look a bit deeper to me and includes 19x9.5 ET22, 19x10 ET40, 19x10.5 ET45, and 19x11 ET44.

Comparison:

Yes, the wheels are designed to be compatible with the OE BMW bolts as long as you are not using spacers. If you do decide to use spacers, you can also simply run extended-length bolts as well, but most of these fitments were optimized for the M2 and don't need spacers.

Hi Tom,

Just ordered my VS-5RS 19" 9.5/10.5 satin blacks in the Netherlands (via Baanvelgen) in the plug and play version with the Cup2 wrapped in the sizes 265/295 and fitted under my HS M2comp.

Will keep you posted, looking very much forward to fitting them to the car (HS M2comp), will provide you the promised feedback in regards to clearance of the MPE suspension kit.

Thanks
Erik

I filled out the configurator in the group buy at least 4 times. F87 M2C and I'm looking at 19x9.5, ET28 and 19x10.5 ET 45. Will likely go with 255/30-19 and 295/30-19. Will this combination fit with no rubbing and stock alignment specs?

Yes, it should certainly be a direct fit with those specs and the 255/30-19s. Our front tire recommendation is typically a 265/30-19 which is a direct fit with most tires and the stock alignment as well.

I would SO buy these wheels if I could get them homologated in Germany. So sad.

Is there any set up for a completely stock M2C where profile 4 is possible in the rear?

There is not. The rear offset requirements of the M2 limit the rear profiles for direct fit options to profile 3 only. Lower offset fitments, which are required for profile 4 wheel designs, are more aggressive and would not fit this chassis without significant modifications.

Yes, my stock size Cup2s still have good tread. When they wear out I may go up to 255/35, 275/35 depending on what tire I decide to get.
I just ordered ceramic coating to seal those babies up.

Good news is the wheels have arrived and tires have been mounted. Bad news is having to wait for my wheel coating to arrive before installing on the car.

My group buy vs-5rs wheels arrived earlier than expected today! Also taking to be ceramic coated before mounting. I’ll have pictures up next week. Went with the M2C stock fitment in anthracite for a HS car. Going to use the existing tires for now.
