The VMR Wheels V801 Has Arrived

The Concept

A premium full-face mesh concept of lightweight flow formed construction, the V801 is the convergence of form and function. Simply put, the V801 demonstrates a level of design, construction, and finish that surpasses the status quo.

Intentional Design

Every inch of the V801 has been scrutinized, tweaked, and perfected to achieve our design goals. Each feature of the V801’s architecture is the result of a vision to create a contemporary classic style that takes cues from modern automotive design language. From the center converging spoke extensions with alternating teardrop-diamonds that yield fluid symmetry, to the raised spoke ends, undercut lip, and angular concavity profile that produce sharp, visual depth; each crest and curve V801 serves a purpose.

Advanced Construction

We believe a beautiful idea means nothing without the brawn to back it up. The V801 has been engineered as meticulously as it’s been designed. Utilizing our state of the art flow forming manufacturing process, the V801 barrel is forged via high heat and high-pressure rollers. This hybrid construction results in a strong wheel that weighs less, without driving up costs unnecessarily. Oh, and did we mention the load rating? The V801 is overengineered to meet a minimum rating of 815 kg per wheel. That’s 1,797 lbs per wheel. Weight reduction? Strength? Both required elements of the V801’s engineering and construction process.

Outshine the Ordinary

The amount of detail the V801 demonstrates in design and construction is taken one step further with the factory finishes available–Hyper Silver, Anthracite Metallic, and two brand coatings. With the goal of highlighting the intricacies and overall impact of the V801, we are proud to introduce two new, multi-stage, premium crafted finishes with this release: Mercury Black Metallic and Titanium Black Shadow.

Mercury Black Metallic — A diamond cut face highlighted by Mercury Black accent with a high gloss translucent throughout. The bright mirror finished face with highly reflective Mercury Black accent creates an immensely dynamic, lustrous appearance.

Titanium Black Shadow — A diamond cut face offset by Piano Black accent with Dark Titanium clear throughout. The stealth titanium tint over mirror finished face results in a high gloss wheel that displays contrast in direct light, yet appears full gloss black in indirect light.

No Substitute for Precision

The V801 is machined in-house, in our Southern California facility, to fit your vehicle. No centering rings are required. No aftermarket adaptors are needed. We take out the guesswork and replace it with craftsmanship because we believe the best fitting wheels is one that doesn’t require any accessories to install property.

Well Suited

The V801 is available in a variety of specifications to fit a wide range of vehicles. Combine this with our aforementioned in-house machining and the result is a wheel that fits more applications than we can count.

18×9.5 ET25/ET35/ET45/ET50

19×8.5 ET35/ET45

Proper Value

Advanced construction, modern design, and superior finishes make the V801 attractive, but the real ace in the hole is the V801’s exceptional value. WE will let the numbers speak for themselves.

Project SportWagen: Going Stage 2 with APR

When we last left you, the humble little SportWagen was fresh from the development process with our friends at AWE Tuning, sporting a new downpipe, exhaust and intake, allowing things to breathe a bit easier. The car sounded great, but there was no getting around the fact that our wagon was still quite, well, slow. While we realize that nothing we do to the Golf SportWagen at this point will make it a race car, we still felt compelled to do something . To put it bluntly, we had a fever, and the only cure was more power. Flash forward a few hours, and we found ourselves at Waterfest, staring down APR’s palatial spread and the numerous tuned vehicles surrounding it. Earlier in the year, APR had hinted to us that their 1.8 TSI files would be quite impressive, and based on what they were able to do with the 2.0 TSI found in the new GTI and our time in their Golf R, we knew it’d be worth the wait. So with this in mind, we lined our G...

Project Golf SportWagen- Intro

I’ve never really been one for SUVs and crossovers. The current offerings aren’t the body-on-frame, go-anywhere specialty tools I remember from my youth, and what they lack in capability, they also lack in on-road performance. The current crop isn’t terribly good at handling or being efficient, which in my opinion are major components of our ideal driving experience. So when it comes to space or utility, I usually look for something of the wagon variety- and it seems that I’m not alone. We hit quite a few shows around the east coast each summer, and we see modified Jetta SportWagens at nearly every event. Even amongst common consumers, these cars are highly sought-after. They don’t depreciate much, making even early Mk 5 2.5 versions expensive in comparison to other Jettas or Golfs of the same vintage. This year, Volkswagen launched their latest SportWagen, which is now billed as a Golf. In many ways, this latest SportWagen is the best yet and it has certai...

Volkswagen Group Records Best Ever First-Half-of-Year Sales

With 5.5 million vehicles in customer hands after the first six months of 2018, the Volkswagen Group is seeing the best performance of its history. Group deliveries increased significantly in all core regions,” said Fred Kappler, head of sales for the Group. “Our core brands recorded strong growth in the first half year.” For the year-to-date, all of Volkswagen’s brands had sales bumps. MAN, SEAT, and Skoda led the sales charge with performances 24%, 17% and 11% better than the previous year. The big sellers, too, had strong sales periods, with Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles, Audi, and Volkswagen sales rising 3.5%, 4.5% and 6.3% respectively. That last figure is particularly good new for the board, since Volkswagen alone sold more than 3 million vehicles in the first half of 2018. As Kappler stated, the numbers are equally good when you break sales down by region. Brazil and Russia were the most improved markets (22% and 20%, respectively), while strong sales in Europe and China (u...
