GB LIST in 18"

TheRealtor

Quattro

[Peter@VMRWheels]

Staggered wheels is definitely not a problem for us to produce. I'm already familiar with the specs required, and we can pull the trigger at any time. However... production minimums... we might end up sitting on inventory because the demand isn't too high. Anyone interested in a GB? Right now I'm doing forecasts for December arrival.

[TheRealtor]

im telling you right now ill take a set 10000000000000%

in 18s tho, i will never be able to rock 19s here.

start the GB and ill even send u a deposit

[Wholesale Depo]

I want either V708 of V710 in matte black, I have a B6 S4 2004, what are the specs I need to fit it?

[psiaddict85]

in a staggered set of 710s would the rear be more concave then the front?

[AudiTFSI3o3]

any #s for GB?

[Peter@VMRWheels]

Man! This thread changes alot! It got shorter, then the name changed! We should get a list together. Colors, Diameter, fitment. I would just produce the most popular color (HS) but given enough interest and at least a partial fitment, I can make the other fitments happen!

[Phatt_Audi]

i'm down for a V710 GB but no need for staggered coz I'm quattro. 18" GM.

[ataylor]

realtor needs to stop expecting GB prices on a staggered setup. You won't get enough of a demand here to justify Peter's effort and investment, ESPECIALLY in 18's. If you want a staggered set of 18's, send him your individual order..

[TheRealtor]

i dont need the discount i want the wheels made. how about you shut up about what peter is willing to do if hes posting in the thread and is willing to make the set?

your all pathetic ............ this place is worse then the vortex mk4 section

dude, you sound like a douché.

[TheRealtor]

at all..........

ive been modding cars since im 17 years old. and not a single forum ive been on is so full of fuckin haters.

VMR rep is here saying hes will to make the set if there is demand and people are still down my fuckin throat about running staggered on a quattra.............

i have no problem running stretched tires in the back. as long as i can have more concave wheels in the back.

unlike all you people i dont jump on a haters bandwagon. i have more to do with my life then go on forums and bash at random people

[juggernaut201]

no no bro its just u run up in here like every1 owe's you something ... demanding this and demanding that .. jus like maka said .. your a douche'... your not going to get any respect or bring your reputation back from red anytime soon .. u just need 2 chill out mann .. ask questions don't come out here like a hard ass ... never works ... on that note .. .go to fortitude...

[PolishPete]

You're a great salesman for getting people on board with the group buy. ( <-- Sarcasm)

I'd say let the rep handle it and you deal with him via PM. Sounds like your attitude is just going to push people away and end up ruining the deal for you.

Just my opinion of course.

[eskimopunk]

Did my post get deleted?

Oh well.... here we go again.

Staggered fitment is pretty pointless on quattro vehicles because there can't be too much difference between front and back wheel sizes or it damages the awd system. So because of the little difference you almost can't tell that it's a staggered fitment.

[CBRmatt600]

Why are my posts getting deleted?

Yeah what eskimo said, staggered on Quattro cars is a dumb ass idea. Has nothing do with "being haters", people are trying to tell you that your idea is retarded and is going to F up your car.

[F16HTON]

Actually it is not pointless and you have not even taken the time to read what the OP was asking VMR for.

He wants 18 x 8.5 all the way around with staggered offsets so the rear wheels will have more dish to them and also fill the wheel gaps in the rear better, similar to running spacers in the rear.

By having the same rim width on all four corners, the tire sizes can remain the same.

Now that that is clear, let's get back to your orginal argument. It really does not make any difference on the torsen whether you run staggered or not, as long as the rim diameter is the same front and rear.

The Quattro will accept up to 5% difference in tire size before it is affected. All you really need to do is make sure your tire circumfrences are within 5% of each other, whch they will.

VMR already has castings to make this happen, 5 x 114.3 wheels can be drilled, or if there is enough interest they could easily do a production run of 5 x 112.

Deep concave mesh wheels are very popular right now.

You're right, but to be fair, the Op never specify anything about a staggered offset, all he said was staggered setup. Based on just about every one of his posts, other members (including myself) automatically assumed he meant staggered width.


Now that that is cleared up, we can get back to letting the Op make an ass out of himself.

Btw, I had no idea VMR was working on staggered offsets, thanks for the info.

[Rotond0000]

my post got deleted?

wow[confused] [rolleyes]

the realtor your really bringing the machine gun funk around here

[ataylor]

I know what the OP asked for.

The 'equal tire fitment with stretched tires in the rear', suggests well enough what he wants to do.. safely.. with quattro.

I think it's a good idea and would look great.. but a "hey VMR" thread is pointless if you're is trying to buy these wheels now -- you seem to be ready to pull the trigger, and "don't need GB prices", so I'm just saying you're better off paying a little more to have one set made, dealing with VMR privately, getting you your wheels sooner.

Some of us have seen (in this forum) how long it takes GB threads to get up in numbers when dealing with a standard set of 19's, and considering that what you're looking for is pretty specific... I just think you're delaying yourself by trying to stir interest here.. especially in 18".

Some people are actually trying to help/give advice, don't take e-tone so seriously

[TheRealtor]

thx a lot 400HPA4

people have trouble reading on this board. and they all jump on the hater bandwagon without even understanding OR READING

ill run 19" if i have to i prefer running 18" wheels

lets get this going already .... i'm fed up of the Ethugs and the Efighting

[Quattro]

I agree with greg, although the OP didnt make it specifically clear all that matters is what VMR thought he meant or believes what he meant. It seems that VMR is willing to make this, if enough people are desiring these wheels they will make them. Let's keep this civilized and gauge an interest for these wheels.

If I might be so bold, maybe VMR should start a new thread in the GB/New product or in this section so people "might" take this more seriously. Not many people like OP, which as one has mentioned might deter others from taking this serious.

I wouldn't mind a staggered set in 18's, I need a nice set of tracking wheels...not sure if running this setup would be ideal for tracking though :)

-randy

[TheRealtor]

^if it was unclear, couldn't you have asked what i meant instead of trashing the thread?

[Quattro]

yes.

[TheRealtor]

good stuff then lets keep this at the top

no hard feelings. i don't take internet that seriously anyways

[Quattro]

I am not involved, I never said anything, but things could have been clarified and not have escalated to how they did.

put me down as a high maybe peter, I am ready to test fit them :D

[pw211]

ha oh god quattro you just bought wheels!!!

[Quattro]

i know, but i can use a set for track/auto-x :P

[F16HTON]

I know the Audi market pretty well and I am pretty confident there are more than 10 people who would be willing to place an order either 18 x 8.5 or 19 x 8.5 with staggered offsets and a deep rear concave for December's shipment.

Deep dish concave wheels are all the rage right now and the 709 and 710s are pretty hot.

Couple this with some incredible finishes like graphite powder coat and you have yourself a winner!

You guys need to remember that the market always follows the consumers and is reactionary. If you want something, ask for it, the worst thing that can happen is you will be told "no".

Based upon Peter's response though, this is definitely doable.

[Rotond0000]

i dont need the discount i want the wheels made. how about you shut up about what peter is willing to do if hes posting in the thread and is willing to make the set?

your all pathetic ............ this place is worse then the vortex mk4 section

lol im not going to contribute to this thread any more, however i will leave it with one thought. You seem to be the only one on here that feels this way about all of us....


so where is the issue there? no need to be a tough guy...thats hipcritical right ethug?

lets be cool here...LOVE!

-no homo


btw quattro you are a wheel fiend now

[CBRmatt600]

Actually it is not pointless and you have not even taken the time to read what the OP was asking VMR for.

If by "taken the time to read", you mean "taken the time to decipher", then no, I have not. He didn't ask for staggered offsets, he asked for a staggered setup. Because he chooses to type like a 5th grader, I did not take the time to decode what he was saying.



Now that that is clear, let's get back to your orginal argument. It really does not make any difference on the torsen whether you run staggered or not, as long as the rim diameter is the same front and rear.

The Quattro will accept up to 5% difference in tire size before it is affected. All you really need to do is make sure your tire circumfrences are within 5% of each other, whch they will.

That is shoddy information, and I really wouldn't be giving it to people without words of caution. There are people who have trashed their diff with less than 5% variations in circumference, more like 2% or 3% actually. There is no magic number to that formula, and it is pretty damn risky with no perceived benefit aside from possibly looking somewhat cool.

I know, their wheels look good, and fit pretty much flush already without staggered offsets.

[ataylor]

dude this GB list is out_of_control, you were right!

The interest in


VMR 708's,
with staggered offset for wider rears,
in 18",
just before winter,


...is overwhelming! [:p]


Again, I'm telling you for your own convenience.. you're better off paying for a single set and being unique [up]

[TheRealtor]

i already vmr waiting for a callback. well see how much they would do a one off set. i dont mind it as long as its ganna cost me less then a set of jlines. or else i know what im getting

its not to have a wider rear. its to have more concaveness in the rear. if its a bit wider and i run stretch i dont mind


i buy 95% of my parts over winter to have it all on the car on april. :)

[eskimopunk]

Why not wait till christmas?

[TheRealtor]

why would i wait for christmas? the point of the GB is to get it going so that come april/may people can rock the set they paid for. im willing to wait this out till feb. if theres no action ill get something else. i just know for a fact that these will look SICK and they wont cost 1k a wheel like the adv.1

[brownishwater]

Take your business elsewhere. [down]

[TheRealtor]

^if you have no interest in it just leave the thread. no one is asking for your opinion......

anyone that doesnt see how sick this would look has no taste...........

http://www.vividracing.com/forums/gallery/showimage.php?i=11691&original=1&c=371

[brownishwater]

They're definitely great wheels, you're just too abrasive and retarded to have any company or individual deal with you. If I was VMR, I would tell you to F' off simply based on principle.

If I wanted to buy them, I would call VMR and place an order, not start a worthless 'want-to-buy' GB thread and piss everyone else off in the process. If you're trying to save a couple bucks, then haggle with them or save for a little longer. That $8,000 you made in an hour or whatever should cover about 3 sets.

Im sure this post will get deleted, so until then.....

[Rotond0000]

i show love for VMR, but..they arent the only wheel company around for our cars lol....wouldnt it be easier to just go with something else?

that already exists?

[maka]

Hahaha, this thread makes me feel all warm inside.

[TheRealtor]

i really dont get this place...............

[eskimopunk]

^ Probably because you act like a rich douche most the time. If you chilled out a little and stopped acting like a spoiled rich kid then you might get better responses.

Hey, the truth hurts. I'm just letting you know.

This set up is what you want, so just buy it and everyone can see if they like it. You obviously have the money for it.

[TheRealtor]

spoiled rich kid? LOL i earned all i have. maybe you all should do the same instead of trashing this thread 80 times a day. just for the mods to clean it after. hitting refresh and hoping i post a reply? lol i have more things to do then argue here........

plus from the posts i read on here 99% of the members have no tech knowledge whatsoever ........

[CBRmatt600]

Then why don't you leave? Clearly you haven't made any friends here, no one cares about your opinion, and you have been an epic douche to everyone.

[TheRealtor]

^ LOL in your face. couldnt care what u think

all i know is that u drive a auto tranny cuz u cant handle a car properly ......

and btw your ebay pedal set is tacky and ugly as shit.......... LOL

add some more audi logos all over the car. would look great

What the hell are you talking about?

My car is a 6 speed. I've been driving a manual before you even had your drivers license. I would absolutely destroy you on a road course. Bring it.

The pedals in my car are RS4 pedals, that came from the factory on the 2008 S-line.

I only have 2 Audi logos on my car, the grille and the trunk.

I don't know if your post could have failed any harder.

Haha I like how Mr. Realtor described everything your car is not... FYI Matt, you now have 3 bars of rep. You can thank me later. I think everyone should meet me at Summit Point this weekend and we'll have ourselves a good ol' road race!

[CBRmatt600]

Hell yeah, thanks man. I would love to get a track meet together, though your area is a bit of a drive for me. The only track I am familiar with in that area is VIR. Although I might be getting a different little track weapon soon, if some job related things work out in the next couple of weeks. Here is a little taste....

http://mall.rennlist.com/ads/upload/aporsche.9190.1.jpg

I am getting a hold of this guy, the car is right around the corner from me and is a hell of a deal.

[Glassnpowder98]

^^ Yummmm. I'm actually signed up for another track weekend November 14th-15th at VIR through Audi Club North America (http://www.pcc-acna.org/index.php?option=com_registrationpro&Itemid=77&func=details&did=19). Check it out and maybe we can figure something out.

/thread save... errr thread jack.

[CBRmatt600]

That sounds tempting. Do I have to bring the B7?

[Glassnpowder98]

Nope. You can bring whatever you want, you just have to be an Audi club member ($30-40 a year). I went to one Audi club sponsored event last year and I would say the majority of cars weren't Audis. A lot of the people either join the club just to have access to more track days or they have DD Audis and dedicated track cars. It's a pretty good deal since you get 4-5 20 minute sessions each day, quality classroom time, and Saturday afternoon they have a banquet.

[CBRmatt600]

Yeah the price is not bad at all. I wish I still had a truck and a trailer so I could bring my bike up. I have ran VIR with it a couple of times and I really like that track. I'm sure that would not be allowed though. I will see if I have anything on the calendar that weekend.

[fusionx]

This kid shouldn't have started a thread in the first place. Should have just called VMR, maybe he is a douche, but I'm sure VMR has to deal with an endless amount of douche's as does any other business. Definitely a KID and if not he fails at life. Some people get too antsy and take everything everyone says the wrong way and it turns out bad. Take a chill pill OP

Hmm, well as true as it may be.. VMR guys are always here which means unlike most other wheel companies they actually (hear) what we say both good and bad. From my experience, they're enthusiasts, focused on giving a good product at a pretty damn good price - and I can relate to them more then lets say HRE and OZ, you don't see them here, you can't even reach them half the time. Just diff vibe.. everyone else is sooo CORP material and all about making the most $$$$$$ with the least help - forgetting what got them there to begin with. IMO of course. I guess thats why I much rather support those who are still there for us.

And the bold is you contradicting yourself, over and over again.

I tried to be nice about it in my above post and let you know how you were coming off, I was even going to say how immature your reply was going to be but I thought that maybe, just maybe you'd grow the fuck up and change your attitude. I guess not.

Oh, btw, the term "hater" is used only when hate and jealousy combine. We only have hate for you.

p.p.s lets not lose the focus of the forums, if someone acts out of wack let them be.. no need for "quote" - oh yeah well then.. bla bla bla -

[Error]

OP is worse than a girl... always bitching n complaining... jesus take your midol and quit acting like a little bitch.

quit assuming that everyone is jumping on the "hater bandwagon"...
fact is no one gives a shit about you or what you think is a potential GB.

its funny how u say you don't give a shit about what we all think, but at the same time you continue your repetitious bitching and complaining about what we say to your ANNOYING and REPETITIVE posts.

2 separate forums you are now claiming have the same attitude towards you specifically.
That should be an obvious sign that you and your attitude are the problem.
Read between the lines it clearly says FUCK YOU!

Edit:
VMR this guy could be a potential customer for you guys, but this guy would prob be one of those customers that will complain about the slightest BS, and will most likely give you a headache. Economy is tough but having a client like this guy is def not worth it.

from the get go people have been bitching thinking im asking for stagered wheels when all i wanted was stagered offset WHICH VMR can clearly make.

im just ganna let this be and ask them to make the thread. im sure if a forum sponsor would make the thread it wouldnt go like this.

ITS VERY NORMAL for me to get annoyed when every time i log on the same 4 clowns have trashed the thread OVER AND OVER again ...................................
