They actually are. Is a new style thats coming in. The front wheels are barely concaved at all. But the ones in the back are really concaved.

These are cast wheels correct? If so, what type of casting method does Vossen use?

yeah theyre cast. The method, idk. I just know that when they get the mold (which they told me was about $30k) then they do minor fixes and do an order which is minimum of $250k....as they told me. Idk if this is true.

I emailed them and got a reply. They are low-pressure cast. Also no 19" available if anyone is interested. 19" will be based on how the 20" does and if there's a high enough demand.
