Hey guys/gals,

Here are the wheels I am looking at:

VVS082 Size: 19x8.5


VVSCV3 Size: 20x9


VVSCV1 Size: 19x8.5

im torn between the cv3's and cv1's..going to go with one of those setups next year..i hope they make the cv3's in 19's by then

btw, the cv series are meant to be staggered, not sure if your trying for that or not

havent seen them on the tls but a lot of people run them in the g37 forum.... they look good only thing is they are 20" so in order to do 20's right you gota be slammed.... i personally have seen all three of those in person and like either the cv3's or the cv1's and i would do a 9" front and 10.5" rear

The second set is dope but you would need a BBK or at least the Brembos to finish the look nicely.

First set are meh so I vote the last set.

Vossens are overpriced gravity cast wheels. Nice styles though.

Excuse my ignorance but, what are gravity cast wheels?, are they not strong enough or lightweight?

I'm selling mine, but it isn't one of the designs that you like.

F: 20x9
R: 20x10.5



$1,500 without tires.

One is brand new and hasn't even been mounted. (Vossen replaced a wheel when I hit a pothole in a construction site, free of charge, and sent it to me even before I sent the broken one back. I will be a Vossen spokesperson all day!)

The other three have SLIGHT cosmetic damage.

I have pictures I can send you later tonight when I get home if you are interested.
