Velgen VMB6 vs Vossen vfs6

I was about to pull the trigger on some Velgen vmb6, which look great,
But then i saw the new vfs6 from vossen. Ive had vossen before was looking to try new wheels. Now im tore in my decision. I guess the biggest difference was price i guess. Which ones do you guys prefer?

This section is for site suggestions not personal wheel choice suggestions but I'm sure a moderator will have it moved to the correct section... I'm assuming the wheel and tires section of the forum.

Until then for those who don't feel like looking up the pictures of these wheels since you didn't post any of the two I decided to do it for you

I like them both but I'd go with the Vossens but then again I may be biased since I have a set myself. Also idk about the Velgens but Vossen has extremely amazing customer service and stand by their wheel warranties. God forbid something may happen to your wheels like a crack or something warranty will cover it. Goodluck with the decision and let us know what you end up deciding and post up some pictures when you get them installed!

If you do end up going with the Vossen route let me know and I'll give you Diego's email to order them through him. He works for Vossen and will personally help you with all and any questions you have including offsets and whatnot. Really stand up guy.

My mistake. I dont post much. Yea after seeing the pics. The vossens are beautiful. I was told vossen doesnt do direct sales. Have to go through vendors?

Diego@vossenwheels.com

Send him an email. Diego is one of the most stand up people I've had the pleasure of speaking to from Vossen! Let him know Kenny from the G37 forum referred you

Thks for the help. May be randon question but is it possible to run 20x10.5 +45 in front.with bbk I saw most people run +25.which clears brake. Pokes out to much for me.

You'll probably hit the upper edge of the steering knuckle with that much positive offset on a 10.5.

Personally i would go with Vossen

I've bought many sets from them in the past and i love the quality and team that stands behind them. Also to clarify those are VFS1's on Diego's black G37. The VFS6's are on his GTR.

Plus you would be pretty unique owning a set of VFS6's since they just came out

You might want to restate that. I don't think any wheel with positive offset will fit on a G except maybe a run-flat spare or a super-skinny wannabe drag racer wheel. I assume you meant with that little of negative offset.

Look for a fit that would be concave in front right at fender. not poke out to much.without running too much of a stretched tire. Little is okay. My daily

My 2 cents...I'd go with the Velgens. I am not as a big of a fan of Vossens as a lot of the guys are here. They just do nothing for me...although the set on the GTR is pimp. Are you a coupe or sedan?

I apologize for the delayed response...

I'm running that exact setup 20x10.5 +45 offset in the rear and 20x9 +32 offset in the front with Vossen cv3-r wheels and have absolutely no issues at all what so ever!
