Vellano makes really nice wheels. I really want to have a set but they are expensive.

I find it interesting that the site tries to DL something to your compute when one is looking for more fitment info; like offset, etc. It also doesn't play well that they don't offer a fitment guide.

They do not need a fitment guide. Vellano are all custom wheels like HRE. They are made to fit any car upon ordering.

Forged wheels aren't always lightweight.

Looks nice, I like how 19" is the smallest size... I wanted to do the 18" here in MN, but our roads are too crappy...

Vellano wheels are GREAT! My brother has them on his Murci and his Audi A8L.

Ding. And those aren't gonna be. A tidbit, just because it says 'forged' doesn't mean the entire wheel is. Most times the barrels are normal cast aluminum and it's just the center that's been forged.

Don't expect big lip either, w204 offsets look really high.
