NOW PLAYING - 2015 Mustang GT - Silver Brushed Vossen VFS1

Excited to announce that Vossen's video of my 2015 Mustang is now playing on their youtube channel. The creativity and work behind this video is crazy and seeing it behind the scenes is awesome. The photos also came out amazing, getting the chance to spectate and learn from a great photographer here at Vossen, Sam. These are our Silver Brushed VFS1's - 20x9.5(275/35/20) / 20x10.5(315/35/20) and couldn't be more happier with the way the car looks with these sharp looking wheels. I hope you guys enjoy the video and pictures. Stay tuned for future content! Available to watch in 4K!

Hoping you go with the 19" VFS2 in my personal opinion
I plan on getting those in Bronze on the DIB, I think it would be a good setup

Keep the build up :popcorn:

Hey guys, well here is my new setup. These are our VFS2 in Satin Bronze. Overall, I love the aggressive look these wheels/color give the car. These are the same specs as I was running with the VFS1's - 20x9.5 +25 / 20x10.5 +45 with 275/35/20 up front and 315/35/20 in the rear. What do you guys think?

Vossen Precision Series

Vossen Precision Series(VPS) - Forged Lineup Featuring our One-Piece Monoblock Designs



Hey guys, I want to introduce to you our forged wheel lineup, Vossen Precision Series a.k.a VPS. Forging is the process of forcing a solid billet of aluminum between the forging dies under an extreme amount of pressure. This creates a finished product that is very dense, very strong and therefore can be very light. These wheels are built to order for each customer, from the specs being chosen, either your own custom specs or our recommended fitment for that specific vehicle, to the finish of the wheel. Day by day I will be showing you step by step through the process of our 6061-T6, aerospace grade, Forged Aluminum Alloy wheels being made in our TUV approved facility here in Miami, FL for the 2015 Mustang.





Phase 1: Engineering

In this phase, after the customer submits their order, our great team of engineers sit down and start creating the programs for each wheel, front to back, for our machines to cut the specific specs. They provide each and every customer with a 3D rendering showing the profile and design of the front and rear wheels. I took screenshots of different angles of the 3D rendering and the concave profile of the front and rear wheels to show you how this wheel being cut will look.

Phase 2: Manufacturing

Step 1: Pre-Mill Inboard Rough-Turning

This is the first lathe operation of the process, where the vast majority of material is removed from the forging to form the general shape of the barrel, back of the spokes and hub. During this process, the raw forging is held on a lathe by the outboard side, or face, while the wheel is spun radially. A cutting tool moves along the surface of the part removing one layer of material at a time until the desired shape remains.









Step 2: Pre-Mill Outboard Rough-Turning

The part is then flipped and held the opposite way on a different lathe while the same process from the previous step is performed on the face of the wheel.







Step 3: Outboard Milling

In this step, the wheel is affixed to a table that moves left, right, forwards and backwards horizontally while a rotating cutting tool moves up and down on the Z-axis to cut the spoke design and bolt holes into the rough-turned forging.















Step 5: Post-Mill Inboard Finish-Turning

Description: The most critical step in the entire process, this is where the center bore, offset, caliper clearance, inboard flange and final barrel surface are machined to their final specification.

&

Step 6: Post-Mill Outboard Finish-Turning

Description: The part is flipped for the final time so that the face, center cap seat, outboard flange and final barrel surface can be machined to their final specification.





Phase 3: Paint

Step 1: Prep

The wheels are then prepped for paint by sanding down the edges and faces of the wheels to give a good surface for the powder coat to grip on to. Once this is finished they are sent out to paint









Step 2: Powder Coating

After prep is finished, the wheels are then powder coated and baked around 380 degrees to seal the paint onto the wheel.
