Hope you get some new wheels bro. MANY better and nicer choices you could have made in the first place though.

Throw the wheels on another sedan and see if the problem is still present? If so, then its proof that it's the wheels? no? or @ least it has to do with the wheels and/or tires.

Wow !!!! If Vossen Wheels i's one thing it's certainly not anything the OP mentioned , I've dealed w Vossen wheels 2 years and running , and never a single complaint or a bad service experience other then one of the best customer service i'n the industry, i know Jav personally and can Vouch for this guy and I'm Certain he tried or offered to help you I'n
Any way possible so u can be happy, because that's what he does. I really hope you get your issues resolved , as for me I'm on my 8th set of Vossen Wheels, and currently running spacers and still i have the very slightest vibrations and I'm slammed w Stretched tires... It's not cool to try and Bash Vossen Wheels , I've seen first hand hown Vossen takes care of hos customers so i Strongly Disagree with everything you said and wish you best of luck!!!!

I'm going to have to disagree about the way you've handled this entire situation. First of all I really doubt that you're going to make a real difference on Vossen wheels business with your complaints. I have CV1s and they balanced perfect and I love the way they look. If you had problems with the wheels from day one and handled it with Vossen on a professional level I'm sure they would've took care of it. I had an issue with my original Vossen wheels and they took care of it no questions asked. With that said I wish you good luck.

just because you have nothing bad to say about them doesnt mean at some point there is not going to be one set of bad wheels out there. not trying to argue with you or anything. im just saying

Did you try spinning the wheel ONLY on a machine? I'd imagine it would be pretty unbalanced if it was "warped".

And even with a tire, if it was unbalanced (ie.. trying to correct a warped wheel with weights), it might take A LOT of weight to do that. Enough where the installer would be questioning whether the tire was out of round or of there was a problem with the wheel

Not meaning to take sides, but even if Vossen has a great rep to date, it doesn't mean that on occasion they won't have a bad wheel produced that requires replacement. It sounds to me like the OP has gone above/beyond what most would do to try and solve the problem. I agree with Vossen that they have absolutely NO OBLIGATION to replace this dude's set of wheels, but doing so can be the difference between good versus bad publicity in today's online era. If I was Vossen, I'd have just eaten the loss awhile ago and replaced the two wheels.

I hear you^^^ however if there was a problem it would had been taken care of knowing first hand how there buisness runs, unfortunately the OP handled the situation wrong and to be honest who wants to help a guy like tht! Vossen I'm sure tried and this guy pretty much i's dealing w it all wrong .

hmm?

I know the really good road force balance machines will tell you if the wheel are to far bent or what not and no amount of weights can fix them.

What Balancer has the OP been using?
