Very nice and original. It doesn't look like the 10 million split 5 copycats. I think I found my next set of wheels for the GC. Wish they came in other color options, even polished would be nice to see.

Paul our flow forged wheels are actually one of the lightest wheels out in the marketplace and are comparable and on most occasions lighter than the factory forged & aftermarket wheels.

Here is an example of or 19x9.5J | 20x10.5J inch VFF-103 flow forged set for the M4 GTS and are 13.5 lbs lighter than the factory forged GTS wheels.

Our core focus on our flow forged program is weight savings, improved fitment, big brake clearance and maximum concavity for each and every vehicle we manufacture wheels for and is not a one size fits all application.

Hi. that is an important information you should disclose right away in your PR and various communications as the unsprung weight reduction is significant... People who invest a lot of money in such cars want to know this... I do like the design of these wheels very much: a modernised version of the BBS classic! Thanks for the info by the way ;-)

Yes I agree this information is not posted and shared enough.

Also one wonders why the factory should not offer better wheels from the start, especially at this price point...

Paul our dealers do have weight specs for every flow forged wheels we offer but we do agree with your point that this weight savings should be shared with consumers more upfront.

We are glad to have the opportunity to chime in here and share the weight savings of our flow forged program with the community and fellow enthusiasts.
