    VMR makes great wheels and these power-coating options...amazing.

    I need a change from my VMR 710's though. I'm thinking 701's. Currently at 19", but was thinking of dropping to 18" if I can get the Brembo BBK's to fit. Anyone know if they do?

    You can attempt to have a powder coater local to you recreate the finish. It will not be easy though. lol.

    Or you can make a road trip.

    lol, that's my worry. Try to recreate it and then up with something that looks like ass. lol.

    I doubt VMR would be willing to provide the color code. Aren't powder coat finishes a little more complex than a simple color code considering flake, etc?

    The powder coater has the code and not us personally. With most powder coat finishes you can obtain the codes based off of what brand the powder is such as Tiger Drylac. However, the Sunken Treasure powder coat is a bit different. The color was originally created by accident and because everyone liked it, they saved the information on how to replicate it.

    Any plans to offer the V715 in 18" diameter? In a Sunken Treasure finish would be ideal.

    That makes me sad. Bring them back in 18x8.5 and consider at least one set sold.

    I was not able to find that specific wheel or shade of white on an R32, but this should help give you an idea of what it will look like



    And the powder coat finishes will be more durable than out standard finishes such as Hyper Silver.

    FAP FAP FAP! As per my PM V710's or V713's in this pearlescent white would be a beautiful addition to my DBP .:R32.



    Then again , I think a set of V713's in Tiffany Teal could look equally awesome , especially on CW or UG :



    Beautiful stuff guys , amazing work!

    In my opinion, the Pearlescent white would look best on your DBP.
