Don't think these are, but they look very similar to VMR V710s which a few on here have got.

Yes, they are similar to those VMRs, they're actually made by Finichi, don't know much about them as a make but the quality is excellent.

They look to be on the limit for offset, is the rubber beyond the arch? (MOT fail) Think lowering it 15-20mm would finish it off 8)

Offset is ET38 - no rubber protruding but it's right on the limit. Still got the old MV2s should I need them for the MOT...

I know the 3.0 Sport supposedly has "M suspension" - but not sure if they're actually the same springs or not, I'm sure somebody will know! I am tempted to lower a little, but to be honest there's already a tiny bit of rub when going over speed bumps so not sure how practical it would be.

Do you have any issues? Or anyone else who has lowered on 19s?
