What's the difference between Vossen's hybrid forged and other form-flow style wheels? Specifically with regards to strength and price...

Hard to know because we don't know who are the suppliers.
But in general, if they can get TUV approved, it should be very good.

It is similar to US DOT, but much more stricter and have more coverage than DOT.

My VPS 306 (forged) are being refinished so I am currently on a set of HF1 on one side and HF2 on the other (yet to be released). I think the quality on the new HF compare to the older VFS is definitely superior. Part of the face is not only painted like the VFS but is machined which give it a more elaborate and superior look. I believe with this new HF series they really step up there game. It makes me wonder if is worth in the future getting forged!!

I am a supported of Vossen since day 1 they have been superb with me!!

No idea but you should give Vossen I call/email. I just saw a video posted on their Insta story today and one of their dealers already got a set. So I assume any moment!!

Hi Guys

I've got a set of HF2 on order for my space grey F15 M50d. I've gone for the 22" with 10.5 front and 12 rear. Tyres I've chosen conti sport contact 6 295 x 30 x 22 front 335 25 22 rear.

I'm in the UK and hopefully receive the wheel from the US In a couple weeks.

I will post some pics.

Thanks.

Waz.

I have a set of HF-1 in 22" on my X5M and probably one of the best set of wheels out on the market right now.

Finally installed, quality is damn good . I will probably lower soon. A little too much space but the 22's ride better than the stock 21's

For you all running 22" wheels, what tires are you mounting on the HF2s? I'm having a hard time finding a set that will match overall diameter between front and rear on 10.5" front / 12" rear wheels.

Thanks.

I have the VFS 2 on my E70 X5M. They're very good quality and nice looking. Just had them powder coated matte Black.
