Vossen Forged X Shelby GT350

[chrsschb]

Why is it that people like looking at a slammed 350? That does absolutely nothing for me... but those wheels... I'd like to see them on a true ride height car, expecially an R.
@Vossen Wheels, do you already have these in R specs? Could you give us a weight on them as well?

This. Slammed performance cars make me want to kill kittens.

I don't like slammed cars. Seems like a headache to me.

I like slammed cars as show cars, but would never drive one around.

The customer is an older gentlemen and prefers to go this route with his GT350. I personally would prefer a subtle drop keeping it static.

We have taken over 100 different measurements on the GT350 so unless the brakes or fenders are different on the R we can certainly build wheels for both models.

As for weight we have got as light as 24 pounds on a 20x12 but every design/offset/width will vary in weight but not by much. This is just an example of a 20x11 we built with our Vossen Forged VPS-301 which is one of our lightest designs.

19" would obviously save weight.

Just for reference my OEM GT-R black edition rays wheels 20x10.5 weigh 23.8 pounds with the OEM dunlop 285/35/20 runflats at 39 pounds.

Overall with my new forged setup I am at a 20x12 at 25.8 pounds with our VPS-307's but with 335/30/20 Pilot SS tires which are 4 pounds lighter than the dunlop's my car came with at 35 pounds so I still shaved off a few pounds off each corner while going much wider.

Spokes are too narrow for my tastes.

I am sure we will have another GT350 order that chooses a different style.

Here is a link to our Vossen Forged wheel lineup.

I'm leaning towards CV7s 19x11 front 19x11.5 rear. Like the R set-up because I want to run the pilot sport cups.

I just need to decide on finish. For some reason I want to go with a pale gold versus my normal black

Great design but the CV7 is part of our CV line (Low Pressure Cast) and not available in 19x11 or 19x11.5 at this time.

We will have a forged option in the near future with a very similar design though.

I agree, slammed cars in general are not my thing, I like a slight drop. But a 350 slammed just makes me want to cry:( its like when people take the raptor and put a rough country lift kit on it

Wonder why we never see slammed minivans... Oh yeah, soccer moms don't like it. Who cares about slamming race cars... Smh.


Anyways, that's not Vossen's fault. [MENTION=11721]Vossen Wheels[/MENTION], will you be doing the 301s in any different hues rather than bright chrome... Maybe like a gunmetal so that may come close to matching the Magnetic?

Love the 301, so long as you have beautiful brakes like the GT350!

All of our forged wheels are custom built on order with polishing/brushing options and your choice of any translucent tint or solid tone seen here on our finishing gallery.

Here is a GT-R with our Polished VPS-301's with a brushed face and a dark smoked tinted clear.

or Polished with a Translucent Blue tint

Lot's of options to choose from like the Vossen Forged LC-Series fully brushed and a gloss clear.

I like the gunmetal look, but can't see me changing out carbon fibre wheel.
unless I damage them. Vossen make wicked wheels, great product IMO.

 

[DrumReaper]

Ok, you had me at Forged LC series... I'm down with a set of those in polished gunmetal
