Looking for direct photo comparison of VMR VB3, V710, V718, Alu CS7, SF71, OEM ZCP
Been looking at a lot of the mesh wheels lately, and they all look similar (of course). It'd be nice to see straight on shots close up of the wheels to be able to compare the subtle differences.
Something like this is exactly what I'm looking for (with the other wheels too): http://www.m3post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=351056 Anyone have direct shots of the VB3, CS7, SF-71 that I can juxtapose with those? Based on "on car" photos, right now I'm leaning toward going for a set of Alufelgen SF-71 in Gunmetal to go with my space gray sedan, but I like the look of the V718s as well, and the lure of OEM is always hard to pass up. I'm still considering OEM 220 wheels as well, since I really like the way they compliment the car. I'm also looking for a set of 18s for winter tires, but of the ones I listed, it seems only the VB3s come in an 18 size. Is that supposed to change in the next month or so?

What? No RAC RG63s or MORR VS8.2s?
Finding all of those wheels in one picture is going to be nigh impossible. Do some searching and you'll find good pics of all of those wheels individually. AluFelgen has a Flickr account, for example.

I wish! To be honest, those wheels are just more money than I want to spend for a daily driving wheel. I'd probably sooner get one of the reps I listed and a set of lightweight 18s in a square setup for the track before getting something like RACs. Roads here are pretty nice and I don't need the weight savings for the street.

I'll check out Alu's flickr account, thanks for the tip!

Hey Neon
This is a shot comparing the CS7 and the SF-71: Here is a straight shot of the CS7: Here is a straight shot of the SF-71: Here are some shots one of our customers did of his VB3 and his CS7. Keep in mind there are also significant differences in the manufacturing method, weight, and strength between both brands. |
