That's what I've been taking into consideration from the start. The stepped lip design is hot too. I plan on dropping the car with coilovers as well.

get what ever you want. Just cuz people have either volk gt30's or vossen on here dont mean that people have them all over where you live...who cares, if you want looks I would say go for vossen, half the people on here dont have wheels or a decent drop and just talk. This is a forum....how many people do u see everyday with vossens.... I see more volks here in h town than I do any other wheel....

I gotta be honest here... I've already ordered the CV1's, but if they don't show in the 60 day window I was given, I am cancelling my order.
I can be a bit impulsive at times and if I have the chance to back out of this deal, I am going lighter. If they arrive within the 60 days... I'm kinda stuck.

I'm keeping it fairly simple, IPL sides, 20% tint, factory spoiler (unless I find a really nice trunk like STOOF's or Weiboy's), Autokits CF rear valence, Fast Intentions CF exhaust and that's about it. Combine that with a nice drop with coilovers and top it off with something nice from GTM and there you have it.

Thanks a lot Solid and I do agree with you. The Forgestars are much lighter than the Vossens. After seeing the CV3's on the IPL I was hooked! But my dilemma is that I also think the stepped lip on the F10's looks really hot on the G. Dammit, I thought this choice would be easier! 
My simple theory is that if I can't find a wheel that looks better than stock and weighs less at the same time, I won't get anything. There are sexy rims out there, but I wouldn't feel like sacrificing performance in return, because even the stocks aren't bad looking. Enkei made them pretty nice.

Yeah, I know exactly what you mean in regards for your dilemma. But personally, if I were debating between two good-looking wheels, I'd go with the lighter ones, because the heavier they are, the slower you will be. I remember reading a thread where a guy put CV2's on his wheels, and his 0-60 went up from 5.3 to something like 6.1 due the size and weight of tires+wheels, as well as something about the rotations and physics, lol. But that alone scared me enough to cancel out Vossens.

I agree with you 100%, I just wish the 2011 sport wheels weren't so damn ugly compared to the previous design

After seeing them side by side I think the forgestars will not only look better (silver or matte black, forget about gold) but they do look classier as well.
But of course that's just my opinion. Who the hell cares about what us fools think. Go with your gut.
