according to my handy dandy catalog, it looks awesome!! 5 spokes are classic

are you getting machined with black lip??

matte black would be a custom thing right??

Have any weights? They look heavy.

nogoodname 08-07-2009 03:01 PM

it's made from stainless steal, so kinda heavy

well, the lips are stainless...not the whole thing i mean

and it's one piece

Shunya 08-07-2009 03:37 PM

yeah it looks uber heavy

RCZ 08-07-2009 03:57 PM

Vossens aren't racing wheels. If you're concerned about weight, check out their 3-piece designs.

Guess I'm not one who would buy a sports car just to put heavy decorative rims on it. If I was into that, I'd buy a 300.

nogoodname 08-07-2009 04:04 PM

still, not everyone will track and race...lol

Vossen are nice rims, lots of G's have them also

RCZ 08-07-2009 04:05 PM

Neither am I, but I can deal with a little more weight for daily use if I have dedicated 17lb track wheels with R-comps for the weekends :)

I'm not exactly breaking land speed records on daily street driving, in fact they will probably slow me down a little and keep me from speeding all over the place ;)

FuszNissan 08-07-2009 04:06 PM

They are on the heavy side. But very nice looking wheels.

nogoodname 08-07-2009 04:10 PM

wait til the monoblocks come out

Shunya 08-07-2009 04:13 PM

yeah i guess these are heavy but nice rims lol

nogoodname 08-07-2009 04:18 PM

wait til the monoblocks i tell ya

Shunya 08-07-2009 04:19 PM

Vossen is making Monoblocks? Nice!

How much do their 3pc wheels weigh?

cdawg410 08-07-2009 08:42 PM

Sorry to sound ignorant, but it is what it is....... what kind of speed difference are we talking about when discussing the difference of 10lbs per wheel. I can't imagine that for everyday driving, the weight difference would be an impediment, but I ask cause I don't really know.

nogoodname 08-07-2009 08:48 PM

in daily driving, i highly doubt anyone would feel any difference...so no worries

I notice it in the MPG's I get, but that's it for normal driving

RCZ 08-08-2009 09:19 PM

Solus 08-12-2009 04:17 PM

My 20" VVS 82's are def quite a bit heavier than the stock rims and no kidding slow me down .2-.3 on the strip

FuszNissan 08-12-2009 05:19 PM

^^ That's why I got rid of mine and went with F14's

lando76 08-15-2009 02:33 PM

I would love to be able to buy the DPE RO5. I think those wheels will make anyone hard. I think thats them :icon23:
