± Got My New Wheels Today VOSSEN CV3's ±

So I got my Vossen CV3's yesterday..................

I was like a kid at Christmas time opening these boxes......

Once opened what great craftsmanship on the wheels, they were perfect, the finish and matte silver finish really brings out these wheels.

I got the 20x9 +20 Fronts & 20x10.5 +25 rears

I can't wait to mount these babies!!!!


Here are a few shots

Those are some good looking wheels. Are these going on a Coupe? If so, wish they were lower offsets.

Oooh, nice. What tire sizes are you planning to run? The first IPL I saw with these had too much stretch for the offsets he was running. I'm sure you've seen his setup:

^ I think what the stretch does is magnify the look of the concave wheels.

^But if the tire isn't right at the fender then its pointless because there was no reason to stretch the tire to make the wheel fit. Stretched tires on wheels that aren't flush looks like you didn't do your homework when picking your tire sizes IMO.

OP I remember seeing your car at HF last weekend, looking good man.

I know what your saying but I think that is why they do it.

I'll be running 235/30/20 Front and 255/30/20 rears with a 15mm spacer up front and a 5mm spacer rear.

I'm as far from a fan of stretched tires as you can get, but I agree with you Marcus.

Cool, looking forward to seeing these on. With the spacers will they be more aggressive than your previous setup?

Thanks man, It's actually the same setup as my previous wheel. I may go a little lower still undecided at the moment.
