Exclamation World's first Dual C-class Photoshoot featuring Vossen CV2 Concave Wheels. 25 pics!!




We debuted one of the first C-class coupe photoshoots with aftermarket wheels and decided to take things to the next level with a DUAL C-class photoshoot. Both vehicles have been lowered and feature Vossen CV2 wheels 20x8.5 up front and 20x10 in the rear.

The Vossen CV2s completely accents the fine looks of the C-class coupe adding a touch of aggressiveness with the concave rears while matching the details of the C-class with a stainless lip. In both black and silver the matte silver machined CV2 matches perfectly.

Vossen wheels are backed by a industry leading 5 year warranty.

Any questions, please email sales@vossenwheels.com, call us at 305-463-7778 or contact your Vossen Wheels Dealer

Please click any of the pictures to go the HUGE 25 picture gallery!

Nice pics they really stand out on the black vehicle

I've asked this before on the other thread with no response, but I'll try again here - why are the rear lugs 'poking' out of the rim as compared to the front which fit neatly inside their hole positions ?????

It dosn't look right like that

I'm assuming this has something to do with the different concavity forming of the front and rear rims or less material thickness on the hub centre between front and rear rims ?????

Is this usually the case with staggered rims ?????

Good question.

It is because its one set of lug nuts which means they are made for one size wheel. Since these are two different sizes and the rears are concave they stick out. If the owner puts the same 20x8.5 all around they would not. So technically you could go with different lugs in the rear.

In person it is hardly noticeable unless you got that really good eye.

Thank you for the response Mike

I actually do notice things like that, but it's certainly reassuring to know something can be done about it, thanks again

CV2s will be 20s only. We have CV1s in 19s and CV3s in 19s are tricking in. We also now have 20x8.5 and 20x10 fitment trickling in for C class coupes

I believe H&R springs

Do these wheels only come in two finishes??? Is it possible to order custom finish directly from you guys or would I have to do that off my own accord?

Im looking for a matt finish centre with painted lip. Also if you dont mind sharing what offset are these wheels?

Just saw this. CV2s come in 3 finishes on the site. Sadly we don't offer custom finishes.

+45 front and +55 rear

Yes standard drop. I've driven the silver one now with CV3s, handles fine and the ride is still great.
