Have any of you dealt with VR Wheels, previously RB Wheels in the past? What was your experience? IIRC I have heard mixed reviews on them, but I would like to hear your thoughts, and only if you have reputable info to provide.

Looking at these Weds for the TL, they appear to be in good shape in the pics and the price is about right......

(And yes...............I realized they are staggered)

Really like these Zaubers too, they have that AMG Monoblock look that I love, but they are too ****ing skinny @ 7" in the front.....

are you talking about purchasing wise ? or structure wise and how they hold up, my friend has weds and they are a pretty solid wheel, oregons roads are horrible too and there are a lot of potholes and they are still in good condition ! no cracks bends so far.

If I buy a set from them my goal it to get a set that needs little to no refinishing.

I know Bee has bought from them, waiting to hear from him too.

You forget that I bought from them and they ripped me for $1400. LOL!

Anyways, Justin, it's best to see the wheels in person to check for bends on the barrel AND the lip. Their other business (Arcade Infinity) was shut down recently because they couldn't pay the city permits and fees to keep it open but from what I remember, Jack and his crew (That owns RB wheels/Motorex/RB Motoring/Arcade Infinity/now VR Wheels) are shady characters to deal with.
