Default Shoutout to VMR wheels from a fellow "F" Owner

Hey guys just wanted to share my experience with VMR Wheels, Velocity Motoring. I am a GS-F Owner, but knowing that the GS-F and RC-F share the same specs as in caliper clearance I thought it would be informative to share with the RC-F members so that it might help someone in the future!

I have been searching for a winter setup for my GS-F since I bought the car but had issues with if rims would clear the calipers, I worried about quality and finish. Thankfully, I found Tracy at VMR Wheels! Found his info from a previous post here on the forums and gave him a call, to my delight he was a pleasure to work with and a true professional. He went above and beyond to get this all sorted out for me quickly as NY winter was already here, and my Michelin Pilot Super sports simply were not cutting it in the freezing weather.

He recommended the V810 wheels because it was their best for caliper clearance, and even sent me a wheel to test fit, and it worked out great! The wheel is flow formed and forged which made me feel more comfortable with the purchase, as NY is well known for its potholes, and I did not want to risk putting on a cheap rim that would potentially crack. I think one of my favorite parts about this experience is that they drilled the wheel to fit the hub of a GS-F, so its like an OEM fit and no hub centric ring. He had them mounted and balanced for me and shipped to my doorstep all at an extremely exceptional cost. All I had to do was put them on.

Now for the good stuff, I went with a Square Setup, VMR V810 Gunmetal, 19x8.5 +35 and wrapped in Pirelli Sotozero 3 Winter/Snow tires 245/40/19.

Any GS-F or RC-F owners I highly recommend them to check out VMR wheels, based on their customer service alone I would recommend them 100 times again. They made a situation that was stressing me out, seamless and basically flawless. Thank you again Tracy and VMR Wheels for you awesome customer service, and guys please check them out. These rims are strong the quality is great and the finish is OEM in my opinion. I am thrilled to have had the opportunity to work with them, and I believe I'm the FIRST GS-F on VMR Wheels.
