Hi
I was going to buy a set of Velgen VMB5 wheels and found Niche and Avant Garde with the same rim. If you bought a set of any brand, which one and why?
I will like a semi aggressive look (19"), flush rim with flush tires will drop on Swift springs Thanks.

I'm not sure the relationship, but I think similarly A.G. M310 and Eurotech U02 are essentially the same wheels as well. Maybe knockoffs or child company or another company created under different name and in a different marketing strategy.

I would stay away from black or dark-colored wheels. I think that having dark or black wheels sort of defeats the purpose of custom wheels because it's hard for most people to see and appreciate the design.

If you want the all-black look, get a set of steel rims and you're done like a cop car.

If you're going to get custom wheels, go with a silver or other bright and VISIBLE finish.

Honestly if they're black nobody will appreciate that you have $2000 rims or whatever on the car. Just my two cents - no offense meant.

Thanks for your opinion the link shows a gunmetal not a black rim, but the color is not the question, I might even color match it with the car. What I would like to know is any difference between them, like quality, durability, maybe one brand will be more concave, cheaper, etc., etc.
Thanks again.

All three similar designs, but the Advant Guard is a classier design, IMO. The spokes are clean, without all the extra lines. It looks more upscale to me. The Targa is weird, with that segmented deep inner lip, and the sculpted lug nut sections. The Velgen looks better, and the Advant Guard better still.

What are the weights? I'm guessing pretty much the same for all three, not at all lightweight, but not an anchor either. Getting them in 19" helps keep the rim weight down.

Post up similar sized pics of all three.

I like my Targas

Here are a few pics of mine, hope this helps. In the end it's your decision so go with your gut.

I like all three depending on the car they're going on (color, drop, aggressive or conservative stance & fit, etc.)
Niche wins for price, but hard to beat the color options on the AGs from a vendor like GetYourWheels, pretty much limited to your imagination.

If you can up your budget just a bit these FTW

No doubt, looks great.

I would have to agree

G37fan09

I totally agree, AG and Velgen are my 1-2 options, I included Niche because is pretty similar.

G37fan09

Yes, I already had a set of Niche Mugello in 20" (staggered), I did like the look, didn't like the feeling. I just will like to try another brand. I have to blame MiPwnYew for making me going for the Velgen, but then Blnewt comes with those SSR and now I'm considering that as well.That is the problem with this forum when you make up your mind, another member comes with something better. LOL

check out MiPwnYew ride

The Advant Garde M510. Compared to the other two, it has the most clean and elegant design. IMO.

G37fan09

LOL, man why did you do that, I was already set for Avant Garde or Velgen (19") now I'm confused. Seriously, I like those SSR the only thing is the size, the price is ok with me. They comes in 19x8.5 (38) and 19x9.5 (40) for sedans, Velgens comes 19x9.0 (35) and 19x10.5 (45) and Avant Garde
19x8.5 (35) and 19x9.5 (40) (not sure if AG are available in 10.5). I'm looking for a semi aggressive look, rim flush to fender, similar to MiPwnYew's ride.
If I go AG or SSR I know I going with a square set up (9.5) with different tire size.
What would you recommend for a semi-aggressive look?

G37fan09

I can't find all the wheel specs options for the AG M510. I think I need to call a couple of vendors to find out.
