What do you call the Entry on the subject of tuning? For me and for many others, tuning begins with a lowering or a loud sports exhaust and, most importantly, with an increase in performance! It should also be clear that everyone interprets the subject of tuning differently and so in the end everyone has a different idea of ​​a tuned vehicle. But what if we take the trouble and compare our question with a statistic? Then we will find that for a good 60% of all vehicle owners with a desire for customization, the car is the first to receive a new wheel set and this is almost always at least 1 inch larger than the factory rims. The rims are replaced before the car is chiptuned or lowered. This means that a new wheel set is the most common change to a vehicle, but it is also one of the most expensive. The choice to change the rims is understandable, because the rims installed ex works are not necessarily unsightly, the problem is that the standard rims are selected in the manufacturer's configurator and of course thousands of other buyers have one, in this case VW Scirocco & Scirocco R., also done. In addition, the wheel sets are of course trimmed in the direction of mainstream optics ex works because they should please the general public.

The repertoire of Vossen Wheels

All very good reasons for a new set of rims! Why not look around in the Vossen Wheels repertoire to see if a chic alternative can be found? The owners of these two VW Scirocco's have "the wheelset project"And the standard rims were exchanged for a Vossen Wheels CVT (blue Scirocco R) and a VLE-1 (green Scirocco) wheel set in 20 inches each. Who knows Vossen Wheels can understand why it had to be this particular provider! Vossen has high quality rims in its range and a diverse selection. As you can see, there was something suitable for the two Scirocco and the project could begin. Apart from the new rims, both vehicles have received further changes which we are only aware of based on the photos, unfortunately we do not currently have exact details. No matter the focus is always the new Vossen Wheels wheelset which certainly does not miss the standard rims on both vehicles and is definitely an asset. The cars both look more dynamic and sportier, which is always a plus and should also drive accordingly. We took a closer look at the photos and looked for differences compared to the production models and were able to determine a few more changes to the rims.
