    Default MGM Wheels

    Hello,
    I am planning on getting a set of VMR V710 for my MGM G8. I have been trying to decide on the hypersilver or gunmetal colors. I have been doing a lot of searching, but all the threads have had the pictures removed because they were posted so long ago. Does anyone have some pics of gunmetal or silver wheels on their G8 to post back up?

    I have the VMR 810 wheels which are very similar to the 710s. Are my pic's not showing up anymore with photobucket? If not, I can send you some pic's via E-mail if you want?

    Those look real good. I don't think I'll go black though because I still have all the chrome trims. What backspacing did you get?

    I don't have an MGM car but I DO have HS 710's on mine. I'd probably go gun metal today.

    I saw some of the gunmetal on an MGM on google image search. It was a nice look, but he had removed all of the chrome trim pieces. I'm not sure mine would look that good with all my factory chrome still there. I like your hypersilver set. Right now I'm on polished 2010 Camaro 20's that I got real cheap from SLP's ebay site a while back. It looks good but I now have 1 wobbly wheel up front, probably due to the tiny sidewalls I had to run on a 20". The clearcoat has also cracked on all of them. I want to step back down to a 19" and these seem to be the best looking for how relatively cheap they are.
