We Proudly Presents The Fully Directional Vossen CVT




We are proud to present the impressive, unexpected and fully directional Vossen CVT

Visit www.vossencvt.com for the full experience


DIRECTIONAL DESIGN
The CVT requires four molds, rather than the typical 1 or 2 molds for standard cast wheels. As a result, the wheels on the drivers side and passenger side of the vehicle twist towards the same direction, whether it's a square or staggered fitment.



The CVT's sleek, unconventional design sets it apart from virtually everything on the road. Available in a metallic gloss silver finish created exclusively for this model, designed to give the feel of constant motion.



The CVT is, to date, the Vossen brand's magnum opus, a major achievement for the company as well as for the industry at large.



The level of craftsmanship is a true testament to Vossen's devotion to quality and innovation.



The CVT is a light-weight, low pressure, staggered directional one-piece cast wheel. It is offered in 20" and 22" diameters.



20" wheels arriving October 14th, 2013
22" wheels arriving November 1st, 2013

Inventory is limited. Contact your local authorized Vossen dealer to pre-order your set. http://www.vossenwheels.com/Contact/

Thanks BB!

Forged will be up and running very soon. Our full factory here in Miami is currently being built for a full in house operation.

CV-T will soon be soon available in 19s as well Got a few samples in already and they sure do look good.

Will the 19's clear the Akebono BBK on the Sport Sedan?

Will the weight be more or less the weight of the OEM 18" Sport rims?

Our 19s will clear the sport akebono brakes and will be right around 26 pounds which is same as the stock sport 19 inch wheels from the G37 coupe.

Thanks, Diego. I really appreciate the answers. Since the 18" Sports are 24/25 pounds staggered, I'm guessing these are a couple pounds heavier. Hmm. Thinking, thinking.

The more I consider aftermarket wheels options, the more I'm wanting these new CVT's. There's a whole lot to like here in the design. The metallic finish, the Escher-like quality in how the spokes gently twist from hub to lip, and the attention to detail having the directional design match each side... something that only the owner would appreciate or notice, making it something very personal.

Damn pretty wheels.

Diego, what's going on here, man? I was waiting for the CVT to come out in 19", was all ready to buy a set with new tires and sensors... and now we find out it won't actually fit on the car?

The 19" CV1, CV3 and CVTs will NOT clear the BBK of the G37s without some modification.

Correct CV3/CVT 19x8.5 will not clear the sport brake caliper with the OEM TPMS sensor. It would require a shorter valve stem.

Wait... is that the only issue, the valve stem? It would clear the front caliper otherwise?

I'm ignorant of valve stem/TPMS options; are there shorter units to be had to fix the problem, and still function properly as the OEM TPMS? Would suck to walk away just because of the freaking valve stem.

Sorry for hounding you on this, but I'm going to beat this topic up until I'm 100% sure the door is closed.

We do have a new valve stem adapter that shortens the OEM TPMS sensor to clear the caliper. To be sure all is well, I am personally going to test all on my own G37 Sport to insure proper clearance.
