Vossen Wheels + CarbonGS = New Look *Teaser*

[carbongs]

Yeah yeah, I know.... Not another teaser thread. However I am trying to dial in the fitment and all that before I post up the final shots. The car has been looking the same for so long with the old wheels I felt it was time for a change. Came across these Vossen Wheels and I couldn't pass up the opportunity. Did my research. The materials they use are awesome, quality is great, and they have some clean designs. I wanted something clean and simple but also eye catching.

Sizes are:

20" x 9" +20

20" x 10.5" +25

These showed up on my door step a few days ago



The old rears



The old fronts



The new rears



Rear fitment without tires



Here's a vid of how it moves from all the way up to down. Probably will have to dial in some more camber to get it to tuck tire. Working on a new tire sponsorship now

So finally got the new wheels put on. Here’s the full test fit at home in my garage

The old rears



The old fronts





Some free swag in the box





Purdy



































Arrived at Butler Tire with the new wheels









Gonna have to dial in that camber just a tad in the rear



























Geordie personally putting on the center caps while lining them up to the logo on the wheels



Time to set it down and see what she sits like









We can’t have this, going to take her over to the alignment rack and dial in some negative camber for slammed effect





Bing (Verietk) helped me out by bringing the new wheels to the shop and taking my old wheels home for me. Glad to have him to hang out with while the boys at Butler took care of the car.



Let’s see what we have now after some adjustments









He made it so that the maxed out camber at lowest level slam would still track straight without issues. We were desperately trying to avoid toe issues.













All buttoned up





































Got to take some pictures at the house and got a better look

Rear all the way up



Slammed









Front all the way up





All the way down

we got lucky. he just maxed out what he could while being able to retain toe. took him about 10 mins. dropped her down and we were happy.
