The best way to decide is what your budget is really

the Niche Invert wheel is a great wheel light weight ( but has its draw backs its pricey)

the Vossen CVT wheel is amazing as well and has oen of the best warranties I have ever seen or known of.

Vossen really stands behind their products.

Other big factor is the design

the Vossen CVT has a tri cut style spoke and the face of the wheel is not as large as the Niche wheel.

The Niche Invert has thinner spokes with a few more degrees in the angle of the way the spokes are placed.

also the face of the wheel itself ( the center) is also twisted in the same motion to provide a more indepth motion like look to the wheel.

As for the VPS line ( its going to be insane !!!! trust me on that )

My buddy Jorge ( some might know him because of his blue accord coupe on dual concave CV3 wheels and then alot of other Vossen wheels)

well I saw his CTS-V sedan ( wide body) on VPS wheels at Sema

it was so amazing

the cuts of the wheel the details the machining the finish

total win for the VPS in my opinion
Thank you for your detailed input and fair stand on both wheels

The Niche Invert is rather new and I cannot find any installed pics of the wheel.
Have you installed these wheels ? Any photos to share ?
On the other hand, I have seen how beautiful the CVT looked on the 3IS.

I agree the the VPS will be awesome, beauty and lightweight with first class finish
I guess the price will be "awesome" too !
And honestly, I don't know how long I have to wait for it ....

I have done the CVT wheels in person.

We actually did a custom finish on the CVT Polished face with gloss graphite inner windows and inner barrel.

As for the Niche invert I have yet to do a install on that wheel.

As for the VPS wheels.

perfection has a price tag and it isn't light.

Currently we do not know ourselves but we have a few clients that are waiting for the VPS to be unleashed.

When it does its going to be nuts by far.

But all honestly it really depends on budget.

If there is no limit I say wait for the VPS if you cannot wait then Niche and if your on a budget I say CVT wheels and do a custom finish.

When we get wind of the VPS release we will let everyone know.

you wont miss it haha

do you by any chance have images of the polished face on the cvt? I would go with the CVT's but of course if there is a CVT with the polished face, thats a different story!

It shouldn't cost too much
But if it's awesome to you , it's worth it !!!
Locally here in Singapore , it cost around S$400 to custom paint.

That wheel looks familiar lmao

Our local re-finisher does all our custom paint and finishes for any order.

Pretty much any color any combination can be done
