The right set of aftermarket forged wheels can completely transform the look of even the highest end of supercars! @VossenWheels has been one of my favorite brands for the longest time, and I recently had the awesome opportunity to not only partner with them on a set of new S21-02 for the Z06, but also a visit to their production and manufacturing facility. A flagship set of forged wheels is definitely not a cheap purchase, with individual wheel prices range from $2000 to sometimes over $3000 depending on size and finishes. But after getting a full tour and seeing how Vossen makes their forged wheels, the cost absolutely makes a lot more sense!

Extremely cool visit to the factory. Your engineering background and comments made the tour fun to experience 👏
Glad you enjoyed it!!!
Cool tour- thanks for bringing us along, love their wheels.
Happy you liked it
Can't decide if I like Vossen, Brixton Forged or Anrky wheels the most. All great companies.
They certainly all have some really cool designs and quality wheels.
Or HRE
Cool, thanks for sharing/posting. Thanks to Vossen. Love my HF-5's
Wicked awesome Eddie...Vossen wheels are at the top of the game for sure!
Looks like you were maxing out your camera's processor in there...panning left and right faster than the camera could process it causing jitter?
Eddie, I have a 2022 F8. Loved the video. Love the look of Vossen wheels, but I am spooked about some of the negative comments about Vossen on the web. What should I look for as a sort of baseline to let me know that I'm dealing with a high-quality wheel, no matter what brand?
Awesome video! I love manufacturing of things I love. Vossen should start matching calipers to their wheel color combos.
Vossen’s powder coating is not durable at all. Any contact with any type of metal and they chip or scratch. So if you choose a dark color finish like Anthracite, which I chose; once you scratch it you can see it from a mile away. I would expect them to be more durable for the cost.
Why are you scratching your wheels is my question
@@allanbanojakedjian8104 it happens bud.
loved the tour...have vossen evo 2r 3-piece on my Turbo. so badass
I'm having a set of forged magnesium monoblock wheels made for my 370Z by Litespeed Racing in LA. We're looking at weights of 14 lbs for th fronts and about 15 lbs for the rears. They're going to be in a split Y spoke design and finished with gloss black paint and a clear coat, to match the finish of my car.
Man, I had the same awesome opportunity of touring the facility, it was awesome..
killer thank you brother.
Yeah Miami …welcome down to Florida 🌴
There is nothing like some time spent in the great weather with some great wheels. I have to get a set. Do they make them to be also for a smaller wheel arch to fit a 1995 Mercedes E Class w124 ? Or do they just only make there wheels for huge diameter newer model cars and pick up trucks as in the video ?
Miami certainly was nice! Custom forged wheels from vossen can definitely be made for many different sizes but there may be some limitations. I would reach out to them directly with the inquiry!
@@EddieXcool I was just in awe at the process that goes on making them. I would love to have them on one of my cars for sure. Yes Eddie I’ll have to reach out to them. Those carbon wheels look sick!
Damn Robots making wheels, serving coffee, cleaning the floors they taking over😂
The lack of safety glasses is surprising, and I say that hating clipboard warriors.
We were caught on a day where no one had eye protection on but everyone has a set in their pocket
No hate at all Eddie, but is there a reason as to why you didn’t go with the oem exposed carbon wheels instead?
Covered this in a few videos
Cost was a big factor, also the fact that I likely wouldn’t be driving on them often.
ok great but WHERE do they get the material from? where is that metal really from?
They use those robots in the General Motors, Arlington, Texas Plant making the Cadillac Escalade. They are thousands and thousands of dollars amazing machines.
🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Your vossens look better than any wheel chevy provides for ZO6 including the carbon OEMs!
Thanks!
Cool vidz vossen, chrome or silver rimz?
Looking for a set of wheel for a 2023 Porsche Panamera 4s How are you?
Very cool
I’m surprised everyone is not wearing ear protection…
No wonder, the HF-4T Anthracite would take several weeks. LOL
Where in Miami is this?
I may stop by the next time I visit.
Come by the factory! We’re here in Doral 2040 NW 96th ave Doral Florida 33172
@@allanbanojakedjian8104 Nice! Thank you.
How does Vossen stack up against HRE?
They don’t. Their forgings come from 🇨🇳 not the higher quality sources from 🇺🇸🇯🇵🇩🇪. This is a TH-cam shill move here.
@@kcw9313 false. We buy our aluminum from the US as well. Also hidden fact that no one knows, The US manufacturer of aluminum (for wheels) is #1 not reliable sometimes and #2 do not offer specific sizes that are commonly used in todays vehicles applications
BC Forged at a fraction of the cost. No way to spin it, less manufacturing costs, raw materials etc. But at the end of the day if HRE, Vossen brand makes you happy great.
Where are my wheels? Made yet ? I placed order 3 wks ago 😅. Wonder why mine were pretty pricy
Made in the United States- Nice!
🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
American made 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
More than you can afford, and the guy thing that’s was cheap😂😂😂
Flexing… new vid “wheels got a stolen!”
No wonder Thier wheels cost so much. It's so time consuming
Nice wheels- still way too expensive. Your over enthusiam was a little distracting. Settle down fan boy. Did you actually show the $12k wheel? He mentioned someone else's 13k-14l carbon wheels. Timestamp for YOUR $12k wheels- anyone?
16:28 questionable laborer in the shop?
That’s a lot of work for some ugly wheels
Agree to disagree
Sorry but no wheels are worth $12k. They are just wheels, and almost no one knows the difference between cast and forged. You could get similar wheels for a 3rd of the price and be fine
Lol
Seems that maybe the price is so high due to being made in the USA? There are some very nice, quality, forged wheels made in Taiwan for about half the price. But if people have money to burn or are sponsored, I can see the allure of expensive wheels.
Focus the camera on the product and not on the F**KBOY. we can just listen to his audio. panning all over the place and shacking makes it unwatchable bro.
