88Rotors Varrstoen wheels vs. Varrstoen.com Wheels

Hey guys,

I was doing a little shopping around for some cheaper wheels and I came accross the Varrstoens. A good amount of members have these and I really like them. I'm thinking about ordering a pair of them in gold with the +12 offsets.

The question or problem that I wanted to resolve was whether 88rotors and varrstoen.com were the same exact wheel, cause they have the same exact name... If not, which one would you suggest I buy from. Does anyone have these wheels personally and how have they worked out in terms of looks, quality and price.

Also if anyone has pictures, could you post them up and notify who you bought it from.

Thanks in advance

definately can contribute to this

Got the flat black varrstoens from 88rotors only a couple months ago

19x9.5 et12 245/35
19x10.5 et12 275/30


obviously since they are replica TE's they are heavier but in terms of looks i love them on my car, if your lookin at getting a wheel/tire combo with these go with 88 rotors because they give a good deal for the whole setup plus free mounting and balancing

also if your lookin to get these in the gold alot of the time 88rotors does free powdercoating for these wheels so just hit them up and they'll give you a deal

some picss (sorry for the no tire shine!!!)

Side Shot of the whole look


Rears (don't pay attention to them bein dirty, took these right when i got back and stuff got on em on the freeway :/ )




To show the fat stance with 275's in the back

I have them from DTM autobody (on my350z) and I can say they look don't seem to be different in the slightest. Just talk to the different people and see who gives you the best deal. Love the wheels and I have the same offset as you, if you are rolled and are going to stretch I would suggest maybe thinking of +0 at least in the rear.

they offer three different offsets +22, +12, and +0

with the +22 you won't need to role your fenders or get a camber kit (non aggressive)

with the +12 you will need to role your fenders and depending on what tire you go with in the rear you will need a camber kit as well, semi-agressive look

with the +0 rolled fenders and camber kit are a must with a semi stretched tire, agressive offset which will require negative camber or stretched tire


i recomment you go with the +12, it looks good and isn't too crazy of a setup to go with, if you don't wanna get a camber kit for the rear just go with a 255 tire in the back and you'll be good


hope i helped a little bit

For those that care the +12's and +0's are BBK friendly.
