In retrospect, I think VIPstyle, DUB and Euro tuning has evolved and distinctions are harder to see. Everyone seems to want "flushness" nowadays, and wheel diameter has stepped up (even in Japan).

Just goes to show how little the person who wrote up the article knows about VIP..
Half the stuff in there is wrong,
That write up was for people who have no idea about VIP and will stay that way believing mis-information that people like him give out.

Notice when the story was written....it was the beginning of VIP here in the US. VIP has grown here in the US and education has played an important role. Also keep in mind that a manufacturer does not want to pigeon hole themselves into a limited market for their products. I don't care how "die hard" they are.....
