Im considering on getting the vossen cv3 all same size wheels front and back for my 04fx35? Are these wheels reliable? I know their expensive but do they live up to it? Thanks

and my other option is those tsw vortex i just like these type of style rims (cv3 and vortex) concave looking rims
are tsw reliable as well? Thanks
 
I can tell you that Vossen's customer service is fantastic. I had two issues (two different rims) with the chrome plating on the lip and they replaced with brand new ones each time. They stand by their product. Go for it plus the CV3's look fantastic on our FX's.
 
Cool thanks, im just lil worried since streets here in ny/nyc is like driving in crater world! Smh
 
When you say reliable do you mean the company service and follow-through or the strength and quality of the wheels? Vossens are 2 or 3 piece, right? That alone will be much stronger and more reliable than 1-piece cast. Personally, I would go with Vossen over TSW.

This is good to know. Customer service alone, this would make me shop at Vossen's. CV2s are my personal favorite. I have Interad Wheels and while they are fantastic looking and engineered well, their customer service is absolutely horrible. I had issues with the chrome lips too and it felt like I had to move a mountain just to get it replaced. Wheels are great, service is horrible.

Vossen's are monoblock
 
Thanks what I meant was the wheels itself solid for bumpy streets here in NYC lolAnd I really like the cv3 it doesn't matter to me as much if there's a lot of them I guess but haven't seen any much on fx's local here plus I'm finally pulling the trigger on getting it or just go with stock 20's lol coz debating on selling or keeping fx but I may keep her now so go hard or go home lol unless I take another few more vacations this year then ill take going on vacation over wheels lol
 
I have CV1s and CV3s on my car with no problems on Houston Streets. Its really depends on how fat your tire is and how careful you are as a driver. I have 22s with low profile tires but have been driving on small tires for over 13 years. My girlfriend had Vossens on low profile tires on her G35. It was her first set of rims and she didn't have any problems even with driving down town everyday. If you put 20s on your FX you will have to do a lot to crack those wheels. If you do 22s you will have to be a little more careful but i think its worth it.
Vossens are strong but the strongest wheels are 3-Preice. If you want 3-piece wheels you'll pay 3 times as much or even more.
Here's my car on CV1s and CV3s

^ I love the cv3 and cv1's but I think the cv1's look the best on the fx. Lol but you have both so that's even more dope

So the vossens specs are 20" 10.5" wide and +42 offset all four rims, would they fit onto the 265/50/20 stock tires? Would it stretch the tires a lot? Thanks
