Hey everyone, happy 2016! We know it was over a month ago now, but we’ve been slammed and playing catch-up after a long trip to Japan for Tokyo Auto Salon and our Vossen Japan Owners Meet. Now that we’re back, we took a moment to look back on how we kicked off the year, with the Toyo Tires x Superstreet 2016 Calendar Launch!

Early on a Saturday morning we gathered at our Miami-based TUV Verified forged wheel factory and welcomed scores of local cars and people to our factory. With a couple tours detailing the entire manufacturing process taking place throughout the morning and breakfast snacks for everyone to enjoy, there was a lot of excitement in the air.

Just before Christmas we debuted a handful of cars on the new Vossen Forged: LC Series wheels at Wekfest Florida, so there was an abundance of the new lip concept wheels to take a look at, on everything from our high-horsepower Mercedes-Benz Duo to my Thule-equipped VW GTI, with Lexus RCs, BMWs, and the Vossen GT4 in between.

Some of the ladies gracing the pages of the new Toyo Tires x Superstreet 2016 Calendar were in attendance too, passing out calendars and walking throughout the cars in their matching Toyo jumpsuits. Red Bull was also in the house giving us “wings” along with Eagle One keeping all the cars cleaned up.

Thanks again to everyone that came out for the event, along with Toyo Tires and Superstreet for choosing the Vossen HQ for their Miami launch! See you in 2017!

Brian’s 2015 Ford Mustang GT, outfitted with Accuair’s eLevel management with struts provided by Bagriders, will be on display in the Feature Car section of SEMA 2015, next week in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Sporting the Vossen Forged: Precision Series VPS-306 wheels and wrapped in brushed titanium by RODWRAPS, Brian’s Mustang will be an easy one to spot, so if you’ll be there, keep your eyes peeled and have a great time in Las Vegas!

What else could I title this latest feature but “0 F*cks Given”? I can’t think of anything more appropriate right now and Brian obviously doesn’t care what I or anyone else thinks. This is the next chapter in Brian’s amazing 2015 Mustang GT Build and you probably recall the first stage which we featured here. To me that is the classic Mustang look, the Roush kit looks amazing, the car is black with our graphite Vossen Forged VPS-302 wheels and its simply a head turner. Brian has been hinting for sometime he wanted to take it to another level bagging the car and a few of us thought the car looked perfect the way it was. Expect obviously Brian…

Enter our long time friends at Accuair and our new friends Bag Riders. Brian did his research and decided this was the best system for his Mustang and of course everything was installed by the mad scientist Danny at Slammered. Danny has worked on multiple project vehicles for us and they all have been reliable and looked and worked just as we planned!

You likely notice a couple of other big changes. The first, Brian’s black Mustang under went a radical color change a few months ago. Done by the team at RodWraps, the car now features a brushed aluminum wrap. In pictures it looks amazing and in person it looks intense. It also really feels like brushed aluminum. Also note the sick new headlights done by ONEEighty NYC! Able to change different colors, they give his Stang another custom touch.

Finally Brian truly chose his direction and went with our limited edition VLE-1 wheel in gloss graphite finish. Measuring 20×9 up front and 20×10.5 in the rear, they tuck perfectly under his bagged suspension. Obviously we all know this wheel is not for everyone and again Brian isn’t really worried about anyones opinion. He loves it and as a car enthusiast, isn’t that what really matters? These wheels are once again wrapped in highly recommended Toyo Tires, the T1-R series. They look fantastic and offer amazing grip. They also allow for some sick ass burnouts which you can see in the video. We expect a call from Stan at Toyo any minute now 😀

Brian has taken this Mustang all over the East Coast from the American Muscle Show in Pennsylvania to Mustang Week at Myrtle Beach to Formula D in Atlanta and Orlando. What could be next for the third chapter? Well SEMA is around the corner…

Chances are, if you follow @vossen, you’ve seen this Estoril Blue grocery-getter around the depths of the internet a time or two. What you might not know, however, is that it belongs to our master of merchandise, Kat (@kat_vossen). Kat’s F31 BMW 328xi Touring on Vossen VFS-2 flow formed wheels is much more than just an A-to-B driver though, and her three pups, Luna (@luna_vossen), Jetson (@jetson_vossen), and Charlie (@charlie_vossen) are here to show you why!

While the video takes a peek into the daily life of Kat, her dogs, and a glimpse behind the scenes of Vossen’s merchandise production, it’s difficult to miss the F31 BMW wagon on VFS-2 wheels parading around. Not only is it incredibly rare to find the F31 in touring form in the US, but in classic BMW Estoril Blue and fitted with the M Performance aero kit it’s an exceptionally fascinating and desirable car—and that’s before taking it for a spin.

Providing more-than-sufficient stopping power is the Brembo GT Brake kit, brought closer to the arches with KW Suspension’s Variant 3 coilovers. Dynamic Turbo‘s tune unleashes an additional 90hp and 90ft/lbs of torque, with GT Haus’ Meisterschaft exhaust clearing the air and making its presence known.

Vossen VFS-2 flow formed wheels, measuring 20×9 and 20×10 are finished in Satin Bronze and wrapped in Toyo tires, mating up with the BMW X-Drive all-wheel-drive system to keep the car planted and stable in the heaviest of corners—whilst hopefully keeping your groceries (and dogs!) all in one piece!

Keep an eye out for more of Kat’s BMW wagon in the near future, perhaps even on a newsstand near you!

As you can see, Dela’s Genesis now has a much meaner and aggressive appearance but with the RS-R coilovers, ride quality and handling have improved. The Toyo Tires gave this car much needed grip since Dela likes to have some fun! This combination really was exactly what Dela had in mind. Enjoy the pictures below and clicking any will take you to the full gallery.
