Couldn't be sure what is upcoming and I keep finding info that the precision series was launched earlier this year. Is that correct ?
Anyway, what kind of designs are upcoming ?
Able to shed any light on that ?
Btw, I love Vossen designs and a forged lightweight Vossen wheel will really be perfect.

Thank you for the interest and the kind words.
VPS was announced at SEMA 2012 and since then, we have been building a whole new factory here in Miami for a full in-house operation for our upcoming forged line.
We are still in the process of relocating but once our new facility is ready, we will officially launch VPS. Until then, we will are bringing 2 more wheels to add to our lineup which is a Flow Formed series.

hahahaha you guys are complaining about factory 18s weighing 28 lbs? My CT200h factory 17 x 7 weigh 27 lbs.
If you're worried about weight, go forged. My RE30 18 x 9.5 and 17 x 8.5 CE28RT weigh so little.

These wheel weights for OEM (and aftermarket) are absolutely torrid. 28lbs for OEM?!!?
A set of Kosei K1s 17x8.5 weighs sub 17lbs, same goes for BBS RKs (may be discontinued). For BMWs, Apex makes some incredibly strong lightweight wheels - ARC-8s (BBS RC design) comes in at 18.5lbs for 18x8.5.
I guess this is what happens when there's a larger performance aftermarket for BMWs vs. cosmetic aftermarket for lexus.
