I like the 360s but if I had to choose between those two, the concaves get my vote

I like those wheels better than the current set. Nice touch for a great looking & running car. I've grown out of the large polished lips. Brake dust just seems to kill them. _PTEngineering

+1. Also, because how the pictures were shot and the affect which makes the rims look good, but it reality they usually look okay.

beauphus...in my opinion, you need a front lip spoiler with that 1 fin grille. The 1 fin make your front look less aggressive (wimpy) oppose to the 3 fins without the lip. I know you have done lots of work to your engine so you gotta show it

CLS55 plus a few Ducati's
The VVS086 (first photos) look great to my eye, from all angles.
The concave look great, side on, but...
The 3/4 view: Rear looks fantastic but my eye keeps looking at both the front and the rear from this angle and the disparity in the depth of concavity (is that a word??) detracts from the overall look of the car. Front and rear wheels do not look balanced or complimentary to me...
Buy what you want though... thats what matters.
Vossen wheel are pretty good quality.
While I am at it and I hope you don't mind .... rear drop looks a bit too much to me.... front and rear wheels look too dissimilar in their respective wheel arches.
Bloody great looking car though.... bet it goes like stink! .. can you post a full breakdown of your mods and some video soon please?
