Cool Something Different! Vossen Japan 911 993 x Vossen Forged LC-103 Wheels

Hi everyone. Some quick photos from our Vossen Distributor in Japan! The owner wanted to go with a different yet retro look. Enter our Vossen Forged LC-103 Wheels. Each Vossen Forged Wheel is made right here in our TUV Verified factory in Miami. You can learn all about it here.

Vossen Forged LC-103
19x9 / 19x11
Finish: Battleship Grey
225/35/19
265/19/19

While we don't have the 993 yet on our amazing Virtual Garage, www.vossen3d.com, we do have multiple Porsches!

A modern twist on the Teledial wheel. I am not sure on the size. A bit big and would also like to see more rubber on not rolled back like that. But each their own.

I don't think I would spend my money on them but can appreciate the look.

I love the look of round holes cut into the wheel (very 80's Lambo)...but to pull that off with a 911 they should just be faces and mounted with some real lip/dish barrels. That monoblock no lip look paired with the hole cuts doesn't look right, especially when the rubber is stretched, too. Might work on a futuristic concept car, but not on an aircooled 911.

To me they say "look at those wheels" but I am looking for "look at that car".

Pic attached of a typical Strosek inspired 911...

Not for me but very much appreciate anything different someone/manufacturer tries.

Looks a lot like the Rotiform DIA wheel except you can get those in a 2 or 3 piece wheel.
