VMR Wheels | V709 Wheels *NEW*

[VMRWheels]

Any word on how strong the 19s are? I drive on some rough highways with some small but unavoidable potholes on my daily commute. I drive 600+ miles a week and can't be sidelined by a bent rim. My 18" hufs have held up fine, but I am nervous about 19s. I think 19s look great, but worried about how they'd survive on a daily driver.

Long story short, I'm another person who'd buy these in a second in 18". Every one of my friends I've polled thinks these are the best looking wheels I've shown them for my gti, too! I sooo want a set.

Plenty of people use our 19s on their daily drivers, but when it comes to questionable roads and potholes there are too many variables for us to say "you'll be fine" regardless if it was our 19'' or 18'' wheels.

VMR why constantly tease us? 19's are too aggressive for most of us. most here can't pay top dollar for the "original" wheels that you replicate, so we wait on great companies like yours to look out for us. alas, you make us wait and contemplate for months until you finally decide to get it right. there is a market here especially for these wheels. please consider making these in 18's soon.

I'm glad you like the wheels! As soon as I hear any news of plans to offer these wheels in 18'', you all will be the first to know.

so i know there has been alot of asking on here for 18's, what about on other forums? say vortex? what are people saying?

 

[VMRWheels]

I don't believe we have begun to actively advertise on vortex just yet. Though as it stands, the demand for the V709s in 18'' has not been high enough to set anything into motion just yet.

bumpage... bring the 18's!

Shipment finally arriving on the first week of August. Get those pre orders in and be some of the first VDubbers to sport the new V709s!

 

[VMRWheels]

The 709s are coming in next week! Get in on the promotional price while it's available.

Well, after bubbling my second tire since February on 18s, I am definitely out for 19s, despite my initial excitement about these wheels.

I am looking forward to pics of gtis on these 19s when they come out, but won't be a buyer until you can do 18s.

Still, outstanding looking wheels, guys!

I'd totally be in for 18" in Gunmetal. I'm local for testing too! *hint*

Here's a picture of that one Tampa GTI guy's car with the Audi wheels.

what i like about this multi spoke the best, is it looks like the spokes extend past the edge of the rim. the recessed lip behind the spokes right at the edge of the rim gives that illusion...at least to me.

that's 235/40/18 on tampa's wheels, btw- which explains why the sidewall looks so big.

oh how much do they weigh?

There is no final confirmed weight as of right now. Once the first batch comes in on Thursday I will post weights.
