Far from it - here's VMR's e60 on the track equipped with VB3s:

We have a strong relationship with the VMR team and I've personally visited their factory and seen the production process - the steps followed for quality control is second to none from start to finish.

We've never said the wheel was bulletproof, but have proven themselves in the past to be very strong for a cast wheel. However as stated before - no wheel is an e-ticket against potholes, especially when stiffer suspension and smaller profile tires are involved.

We don't offer products that we don't stand behind fully, and we've dropped a few because of the way they've done business or handled quality concerns in the past. I'm confident in stating that VMR is one of those companies that offers a quality product at a good price.
