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.

V801 Available Sizes

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.

18″ start at $300/wheel

19″ start at $340/wheel.

Review: Saying Goodbye to the CC V6

For all its size and its global reach, Volkswagen is still, in many ways, a deeply human company. There was, for instance, the Bugatti Veyron an ego project if ever there was one. Then the purchase of Ducati, a move most called folly. And then there was the Phaeton, the Volkswagen that most folks can’t afford. Not only were these moves all strange, I’m sure that they made VW’s accountants furious. None of them made good business sense, but they were all deeply interesting and they all are evidence of the heart that beats at the center of VW. Among these follies is the CC, a car that everyone agrees is rakishly handsome, but that no one really wanted to buy. The car couldn’t last, but the world is brighter for its having been in it. With the approach debut of the Arteon, it seems like a good time to look back on its sadly departing predecessor. The version I drove, because I live in Canada, is a V6 Wolfsburg Edition, which apparently isn’t available in the States. Nor is the V6, not as...

More 3.0-Liter TDI Settlement Details Expected by January 31

Volkswagen and the TDI Plaintiff’s Steering Committee were in court today for another status conference following the agreement in principal reached earlier this week. Little new information was given at the conference held before Judge Charles Breyer today, but the court ordered the parties to develop a formal settlement agreement, class action notices, and a class notice plan by January 31, 2017. For now, though, owners still don’t know how much to expect in compensation. Elizabeth Cabraser, lead Counsel for the Plaintiff’s Steering Committee reaffirmed in a statement today that the compensation would be “substantial.” The potential cost to Volkswagen is widely reported to exceed $1 billion, though, with an additional $225 million going into an environmental trust to help offset excess emissions. Buy back offers are still only expected for the oldest 20,000 of the roughly 80,000 VW Group vehicles sold in America with the 3.0-liter TDI engine. Those vehicles are mostly SUVs, like ...
