Vertini Wheels...you vote!

NickD · 02-05-2013, 02:07 PM

So I'm considering getting a set of Vertini wheels this year (after all this sucky snow goes away of course) and cant decide between the 2 so I thought I would put it out there for opinions.

Vertini Drift

Vertini Fairlady

VOTE!

Not feeling it.

TaylorRyan370 · 02-05-2013, 03:56 PM

I like some of the wheels Vertini makes, but what kills it for me is the Vertini logo on the spoke and the cheesy Vertini Racing thats around the edge where the fake bolts are.

Get a true 3 piece wheel! Save up for it... You will like it in the long run! Or get a nice CNC forged 1 piece wheel!

Jasonle · 02-05-2013, 05:43 PM

I was going to get the vertini drift... I really like those!

Waiz · 02-05-2013, 08:14 PM

How about saving up for the legit Volk GT-S instead of this heavier knockoff?

Where do I vote for that? lol

Roadster4Us · 02-05-2013, 08:18 PM

The Drifts are a nice wheel.

TaylorRyan370 · 02-05-2013, 08:30 PM

Btw I am not knocking the brand, I am putting reps on my car when I get it. Just not a fan of the lettering on the wheel. I prefer the drift out of those two.

NickD · 02-05-2013, 08:44 PM

im not a fan of the lettering on the wheels either. i was gonna see about removing it if i decide to go for those.

enkei2k · 02-05-2013, 08:47 PM

I don't like any wheel in particular, but I voted 'Fairlady' for obvious reasons being obvious

Vertini Drift 20x9(f) 20x10.5(r)

bullitt5897 · 02-07-2013, 08:21 AM

Something along the lines of a proper 3 piece wheel will do your car more justice... Here is an example of custom offset and proper fitment:

Whether it is a concave or a regular face wheel make sure they provide the right offset! Also quality goes along way!

bullitt5897 · 02-07-2013, 08:24 AM

Those are 10 and 11's if I remember correctly with the rears having a zero offset... This will give you the ability to still run 305's and have a big lip 5.5"+.

They sure look like Volks GT40 knock-offs (those on the blue car)

bullitt5897 · 02-07-2013, 09:48 AM

6MT... That was an original design... I have seen the cad drawings myself. Also the spokes are not even in thickness (they taper and are a mesh design) all the way through. Also gt40's aren't concave.... Back on topic.
