Default Feedback: I got a sample moonpie in the mail! Vossen flavored!



So in a box of moonpies I found a Vossen flavored one!!! How they fit it into the box, I have no idea!

Lol j/k j/k it didn’t really come in the moonpie box, but I couldn’t resist using the picture hehe

I asked for the sample of the VVS-083 - Black Machined w/ Black Lip and within a few days of requesting it, it arrived at my door step and here she is:



Quality does indeed look and feel superb! It is a pretty heavy wheel, but then, I am weak and comparing a 20" to a 16” wheel probably isn’t fair —but, in saying that- it feels like a really solid wheel.



Just for kicks, I thought I’d see what it would look like on my IS-







Now, don’t worry, I know from my superior camera skills, it may appear that I had the wheel mounted, but from this photo you shall see that it was just placed in front of my wheel hehehe (cause I can follow rules hehe)

Seeeeee




All in all, I give this wheel a major thumbs up—I’d really like a set of 19s to add to my wheel collection and I think my IS would look stunning in these shoes =]

Major Thank you to Vossen for sending the out the sample! It’s a great wheel that I hope to have a set of in the future!!

Man, they do look great but I personally don't think our cars are expensive enough to rock'em. Maybe a GS

I dont know how much Vossens cost but if people are putting HRE's/VIP modulars/Klassens on the 2IS i think its very acceptable to get some nice shoes for our cars.
