Vossen Precision Series

I'm thinking of buying the Vossen Precision Series as soon as it becomes available. They will be designed to my specs. What color wheel goes best with a black C63? Not sure about the gold wheel in their promo. Do y'all agree this would be smokin wheels for my auto?

Are Vossen your only choice of wheels?
There are much better and much reliable brands available on the market. Plus we have been teased with the Precision series for a year already. I doubt they will ever be available unless you know something we don't .
As for your choice of color black, bronze, gunmetal would suit a black car. Then you could contrast with painted calipers.

for what it is worth, a Vossen rep told me they would be available in the next few months. I'm not married to Vossen, but I have had hard time finding anything I really love. I'm looking for a sexy wheel, but not too street if you know what I mean. Btw I dig your bronze calipers.

Ok. Well my advice would be to make sure you'll have your wheels before paying for them. Unfortunately there are many examples of unprofessional web wheel companies (most of the time based in miami).
Did you check HRE, ADV, Klassen wheels? They have some sexy design as well?
Thanks for the calipers they are orange lambo.

Its funny that you talk about unprofessional wheel companies but mention ADV1.

Check out reputable wheels brands like BBS, HRE, and Volks.

Wow-does Vossen have less than a stellar reputation? I'm new to this high end sport car world
but thanks for the suggestions. HRE pretty expensive.

What about the Vorsteiner VS-320?
I can imagine they would be pricey but a very good wheel

If you check our Instagram feed we post updates to our factory with the delivery of machines for example. We are well on our way to launching a 100% in-house effort in regards to the Vossen Precision Series and it is a much longer process than just re-branding a forged wheel someone else makes. We hope to have updates very soon in regards to full production.

It will be worth the wait. Next year we will even host events at our new facility where you can see where your babies are being made.

We plan to make some major announcements soon regarding the Vossen Precision Series including pricing. Thank you.

You can see the VPS line on an Audi R8 V-10 and S7 at the video below to give you an idea of colors that will be offered.

Some of the other companies mentioned here are certainly not top tier but, they do make fantastic wheels which in my opinion are visually much more appealing than the top tier company mentioned.

I think I'm leaning towards the ADV7s. They look good on this Austin which I think has a somewhat similar body style to my coupe. Thoughts gentleman.
