AMAZING!!! I love the style. I think I am looking at my next set of wheels. Vossen is on a roll. I really like the way the machined face makes the spokes look. When the sides of the spokes are painted it draws your attention to the face of the wheel

Thanks... but I don't live on the forums. Sometimes I check my PMs and don't reply because I'm on my iPhone.

I prefer lippage but they look better on the GS than they do on the IS I saw earlier imo.
It's nice. Kinda stock-looking but nice.

Looks at pic in own signature, happy to have concave wheels.

Nice but all the teasers and hype really killed it.

I agree. with all the teasers, I was expecting something more impressive. I think the version 1 concave vossens are better than these. But they may grow on me. My initial reception of the first concave set was also lukewarm, and now I love that look.

Also you should have used a car with a more standard configuration. The slammed look in the photo makes the car look ghetto. You want a car with a reasonable ride height, parked outside a nice building, in addition to motion shots, to indicate that this wheel befits a luxury vehicle.

That's how I drive everyday. Funny, I prefer these over the CV1s.

They look excellent on the black car in a stock config.

They look good for a new rim design form a great wheel builder.

It looks like the rim's lip sticks out past the tire... What size tire was used? My thought is that it would be REALLY easy to curb these wheels with that tire. I love the look though.
