Default Brother-in-law's new VOSSEN CV7 Rims (THANK YOU MIKE!!)

A few weeks ago, my brother-in-law Bobby totaled out his old 2008 Mustang GT after hydroplaning on the interstate and hitting a guardrail....fortunately, nobody was hurt.

...soooo, after USAA totaled out his car and cut him a check, he decided to go and buy a brand new 2013 DIB Mustang GT, with the California Special Package.

First thing he realized he needed to do was lower it and replace the exhaust. He installed the Eibach Sport-Line lowering springs and a Magnaflow Ehaust.

Next on his list was Rims & Tires!!

There was no debating this one with Bobby....I TOLD him he needed a set of VOSSEN's! We started researching VOSSEN's website (http://www.vossenwheels.com/) and youtube for videos. Bobby really liked the CV7's.

I contacted Mike at VOSSEN, explained the situation, and told him that I was looking for a set of rims for my brother-in-law's car. He immediately gave me a list of the rims available...and the CV7's were on it!! At that point, I traded Bobby's & Mike's information with each other so they could work out all the details....because I wasn't paying for the rims, Bobby was! LOL!!

Mike was fantastic to do business with and kept in constant communication with both Bobby & me. Bobby ordered & paid for the rims on Monday...Mike made sure they were delivered by the end of the week, just like he said he would!!!....and that was extremely important because Bobby had sold his stock rims and tires the week before and his car was sitting on jack stands.

Rim & Tire Sizes:
20x9 upfront with a Nitto Invo 255/35/20
20x10.5 out back with a Nitto Invo 295/35/20

For all those that don't want 20's because of their weight should really consider VOSSENS. The front rims weighed around 35lbs and rear rims weighed around 37lbs.

**More pictures to follow. We live in different states and this is all I have at the moment**

those wheels are heavy though! seems to be a pretty average weight for a 20" wheel.
