I take it there will be 20-22" sizing for the X5?

Which pretty much means X5 owners will not be interested in these, unless they want to use them as a set of winter wheels. You should make wheels in 20" and 22" sizing that is more specific for X5 and other SUVs.

I couldn't agree more. I've always liked VMR wheels, I had a set on a previous Audi but a 19" offering for an X5 of any year just isn't enough wheel. hopefully the 20 &22 aren't too long away

Yeah, they should if they want to make any sales on the SUV forums, but majority of their vehicles, especially on their website are cars. This is also why the only vehicles in their gallery (http://www.velocitymotoring.com/vmr-gallery/) are cars. They don't have pictures of a single SUV in there. I do agree though that a smarter marketing approach would have been to start at 20" and work down and up from there based on sales. You can use 20" nicely on both SUVs and cars to look good and still ride well. 19" is keeping it safe for cars but taking away from SUVs. VMR wheels look too high end and nice to be a winter setup (19").

Not trying to be negative or anything, but you guys really should approach the SUV market differently if you want to boost your sales and attain greater interest here. I can understand if you don't have vehicles to work with, but if you do, please do post more pictures of SUVs you've done. I actually like your wheels, especially the 6 series you guys have done. That's by far one of my favorite BMWs. You've done a beautiful job on that:

Yeah I just don't see the point in VMR posting a "teaser" of their new wheel in this X5 forum when they won't even have the right sizes/fitment for a X5 to begin with.

I think the feedback could be the main reason they're posting, but I agree with you because a 19" setup won't look good from any of their wheel setups. I even did a photoshop for a fellow member of a 19" V702 on his x5. What did he end up doing? Buying winter tires instead.

Thanks for the feedback everyone! We like to do whatever we can to stay in touch with the opinions/feedback/requests of our customers. Although this particular wheel won't yet be offered in 20" sizing, we do currently have our 20" V710, 20" V702 (NEW RELEASE), and 22" V710 available.

We've actually made it a point, as of late, to push media of these particular wheels on the F15
If anyone is interested in a set and is willing to participate in a photo shoot or post pics on the forum, feel free to contact me directly
