Volk Racing VR.G2

[clar]

Have my eyes on this for my M3. Anybody here has it on his/her E9x M3? I have no experience with their wheels, but have been hearing good feedback generally. Are they any good?

Re: Volk Racing VR.G2

Can't comment on this specfic rim but I am personally adverse to light rims as it robs the driving feel of the car. Steering feels too light and at high speed, it is not a good feel. It is just a sensation but not a good one. Am speaking from my 335 days when I had Volks Progressive ME.

Looks good, design is similar to my all time fav Rays TE37.

That drastic? What wheels are u on now for your E90 M3? My steering is set to Sports plus on the M mode, so might not be such a big issue.

Am on stock Competition rims. Prefer the planted feeling.

These days, i don't look at the wheels alone. It's how it looks when on the car that matters. BBS FI looks fine, but when mounted, looks a little hollow. The VRs look sub-par on its own, but pretty decent and muscular in a simple way when mounted on our cars.

Re: Volk Racing VR.G2

Yes BBS FI looks very hollow because the spokes are very spread out. Doesn't suit the E9x chassis

Re: Volk Racing VR.G2

I saw F1s on a 1M. Not nice at all.

Zhoon boh, the 1-2 kg weight savings can change the feel so much....... bear in mind the 335 squats even on PSS9, so that feeling might not be from the wheels.....

Re: Volk Racing VR.G2

I have it on mine now. As mentioned, light and strong. Cant't go wrong dude.

I thought so too.

Andy, wheels weight are like bad cholesterol, the lesser the better. The more planted feel u get in your M3 is the inherently superior suspension setup. Having said, i will pay special attention to the before-and-after of the steering feel after changing to the G2. I am pretty decided on that. Will head to Stamford tires to check it out...
