Vossen Wheels Malaysia-16

The Vossen name is probably no stranger to the the enthusiast crowd, particularly those who have at least a passing interest in the tuning and customisation scene; even the LaFerrari is considered a suitable candidate for customisation. Closer to home, the Vossen brand makes its presence official in Malaysia with the appointment of Authentic Wheels Centre as the sole authorised importer and distributor of Vossen wheels in the country. Location? Sunway, of course.

Vossen’s target clientele is decidedly upmarket; sizes currently available generally range from 19 to 22 inches, with custom orders for sizes up to 24 inches having been executed before.

Prices in Malaysia start from RM11,000 per set of four wheels for 19-inch designs, with the Vossen Forged range of wheels priced in the ballpark of double that starting figure. The Miami, Florida-based company manufactures its wheels in-house, and is also considering production of 18-inch wheels due to demand, though that decision hasn’t been finalised.

Speaking of sizes, Vossen’s Kevin McQueeney says that size is one way of determining whether or not a Vossen-branded wheel is the genuine item; the real deal is only available in sizes no less than 19 inches.

Vossen offers a five-year workmanship warranty and a lifetime structural warranty on its wheels, though this excludes external factors such as kerbing or other road conditions; you’d definitely want to take particular care of your five-figure purchase on our roads.

In the tuning and customisation scene, collaborations are a common occurence, such as the recent Lamborghini project with tuning company Novitec. President of Vossen Wheels, Jav Azadi stated that the company is in talks with several tuning companies for future tie-ups, as well as an OEM for the manufacture and supply of factory-fit wheels. No names as negotiations are ongoing.
