Can you post some more pictures from different angles. Are those the Stance/Vertini VS Forged VS03's? If not, which model wheel; forged, flow forged, or cast? I've been looking and am always interesting in seeing new wheels on ftype. They look similar to the VS03's which I understand may be in the low 20lb range each. Do you know what they weigh? Similar in shape to oem Gyrodynes also.

Yes, they are stance/vertini wheels.

Vince, if they truly are in the low 20s, maybe we could get a deal on 2 sets. Anyone else interested?

Lance,

just saw your post. Tomorrow. I'll post the ones I was looking at and what Vertini said the weight range might be.

Are yours the flow forged Stance SF03's? They look very similar to the forged VS12's. The 12's would be more expensive.

Wheels look great on your car by the way. I think these are a good value for the money regardless of which line.

Did you stay with oem wheel sizes?

Lance,
This is the Stance/Vertini forged line. Each website (Stance or Vertini) has the same forged wheels. The flow forged cheaper wheels are different style offerings.

VS FORGED ? Vertini Wheels. I liked the Vs01's and the Vs03s in this line. Check out this site for idea of pricing. excludes shipping, tpms, etc. $650 each for 20 x 11.plus add ons.
https://pkautodesign.com/shop/vs-forged-vs03/

These are the Vertini flow forged line:

RF SERIES ? Vertini Wheels. I liked the RF1.5's in this line up. Same site, pricing on this wheel without add ons.
https://pkautodesign.com/shop/vertini-rf1-5/ Was told in email that 5 x 108 could be made for this style, although not a choice on this site. $470 each for 20 x 11 plus add ons.

Not sure which company would support a group buy? Maybe Stance or Vertini directly?

I contacted Vertini directly by email and was told the 20 inch flow forged RF line run 20-24 lbs each depending on style and that the forged VS line are 4-5 lbs lighter again depending on style. I would be surprised though if any of the forged are 15-16 lbs each in a 20 inch, but I guess it's possible.


Not sure which company would support a group buy? Maybe Stance or Vertini directly?

If the forged are 4-5 lbs lighter I'd spring for the extra dollars. If we get serious we should request weight confirmation by style and size. Thoughts?

I believe the bolt pattern is probably 5x108 and the 63.4 is the diameter of the centerbore. As an offset, that would place the wheel face too far inboard both front and rear. Also, the 225 front tires are too narrow for 9” wheels. Did you mean 255?

After spending a ridiculous amount of time looking at wheels on the links provided...enzo dna...to my eye, your choice is the best looking design for the FType. I looked at the other designs by Stance/Vertini then went on to HSE, Forgeline, etc. Kept coming back to your car and wheel choice. I'm dying to see what they would look like in Dark Tint.

Light, engaging design, nice price...thank you for posting.

Unhingd: you are the Emperor of the FType. Your thought partnership is lightsaber quick, quite impressive, and to be admired. A deep "Thank You" for all you share with those of us new to the venue.

Thank you for the kind words.

It looks like the VS03's can be configured in an infinite number of ways. I am going to calculate the best offsets (20x9.5, 20x11) to safely accommodate the widest range of tire sizes and suspensions without having to trim or roll the fender lips. On a group buy, I believe that would leave each of us to select the finish to match with our respective colors. Vince, will you be contacting them re: group buy, or do you want me to?

Here's my recommendation:
20x11-32mm offset: will accommodate 295/30-20,305/30-20 & 315/30-20 (though, I've not yet seen a 315/30-20)
20x9.5-49mm offset: will accommodate 255/35-20,265/35-20 & 275/35-20

This will extend the face a conservative 12mm (vs 15mm or 17mm), ensuring clearance with any of the above tires and any available suspension.
To ensure closely matching diameters, the following front/rear tire combos should be used: 255/295, 265/305, 275/315.

hmmm...possible interested. I'd need more details. Would we all need the same exact wheels, or would different styles be possible?
