I have narrowed my search down to two wheel brands: Velgen VMB8 and Vossen VFS1's.

I want to use my stock pirrelli tires from the GT PP, but these wheels only come in 20's. Anybody know a wheel out there that looks similar and not the TSW interlagos?

Any help would be most appreciated. Thanks in advance

You could try cutting across the cross section of the tire and adding 3.1415926536 inches of tread in the the space between cuts.

You are letting one set of tires, the stock ones at that, determine which wheels you are going to buy?

It is confirmed the 19" Vossen VFS series is being released in the coming weeks, since your looking for that similar size I recommend grabbing a set of those.

Allow me to compare the two lines if possible, Keep in mind im Vossens original dealer and repair center in Southern California, ive been working with them since 2006 ( their start) I have seen them grow I know their whole company philosophy, wheel quality and service.

Velgen wheels

Low Pressure Cast
2 finishes

Vossen VFS

Flow Florged ( lighter, stronger)
Warranty is unmatched to any in this price range
Finishes more unique
Customer service spot on
3 finishes
deeper concave front and rear

To me its a no brainer I would grab a set of their VFS wheels in a flash if I was debating the two lines. Now keep in mind I've checked out Velgen wheels before Ive even sold a set in the past their not bad wheels,but for the pricing range I would rather grab the Vossen.

Let me know if I can help I always take care of my forum members with any questions concerns and pricing they may have.

Three things, I like the vossens a bit better than the velgens. Second, 19's are lighter. Three, I can't find this style in any other wheel manufacturer.
