Are niche wheels bad??? In my research everyone seems to like them and have had no issues. Now I know they are no Vossen, but damn $1400 more from the kiddy. LOL

First things first RIP Uncle Phil
But seriously, vossen is by no means top shelf or high quality so get that shtt out of your head.
Second, yes...yes they are. Just look at it this way, you get what you pay for and for wheels this isn't the area to cheap out on because it is (along with your tire choice) the one thing between you and the road.

As for the exhaust, I bought it off a totaled turbo G locally and as you can see its kinda ****ed up, im getting it rebend and fixed up this weekend. I have to replace the tips and cant decide which to get yet. I like the Gt haus ones but for 300... not so much so I am leaning towards the ARK tips or invidia tips (all polished only, no burnt for me) or the invidia. If anyone has any ideas please let me know!

Car is looking great and the mods are all awesome! Only thing about the exhaust, and I may be wrong, is that the original GThaus tips have that vertical piece welded in. I believe hat has something to do with the way the system sounds.

I love that you do this kind of photography, and that you share it in car forums as part of your marketing without beating people over the head with Sales BS. I don't know what your numbers are like, or even if you track origination, but it just feels smart. And the photos are always cool.

Liking that setup Mindows, G/L w/ that exhaust. Jason at GetYourWheeels does a great job w/ his products and a superb job keeping us informed about what unique options that are available for many of his sets.
keep up the nice work Mindows!

For the price they offer quite a bit for a daily driver. If you really plan to push your G there are better options. But if they have a wheel that you happen to like and don't mind running a heavier wheel there's a lot of people that seem to be happy w/ their decision so
Vossens are no lightweights either (at least the cell cast ones) but I linked that particular Vossen just to show a variation of that style you posted earlier.

+1 I've seen a LOT of them lately and haven't heard anything bad. Seems to be a good cast wheel. I don't think vossens are that great. They design some very very nice looking wheels though. Have more of a classy look to them if you ask me. Smooth lines and sharp edges.

Anybody here with 18s want to show off their sedans? Aftermarket 18s haha

Hey mindows7 you in nyc or long island? The art pipes won't fit your x without modification but I can recommend you the shop that did mine.

Snapped a quick pic after adding the wheel spacers. 25mm up front and 20mm out back. Making a custom grille out of the OEM piece, hence the large opening up front. More to come.



Need to address the overly large wheel gap out back with these Swift springs. Running all the stock isolators.
