Mike Posted May 4, 2019 Share #1 Posted May 4, 2019 So, I picked up a set of the new VTO Deep Dish Minilite-Style wheels. Excited to see an update from Alex showing them on the CNC machine! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grannyknot Posted May 4, 2019 Share #2 Posted May 4, 2019 I don't think I have ever seen blank wheels like that before, did you ask for them not to be pre drilled ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nope, they are drilling them specific to my bolt pattern. The way I understand it, VTO casts all their wheels as blanks and then provide custom drilling for the application. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Obvious Posted May 5, 2019 Share #4 Posted May 5, 2019 I would expect that all the wheel manufacturers do that for any cast wheel. If they were to cast the holes in, they would need either a very complicated and expensive mold to accommodate the different lug locations, or even worse... A different mold for each option. In other words... No way. They'll just cast them all blank and put the holes in later. On a related note, I've seen blank versions of the Z-popular Ansen Sprint slot mags on ebay and other sales outlets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Posted May 21, 2019 Author Share #9 Posted May 21, 2019 So what do you guys think? Got them on the car today. The VTO Wheels look pretty damn nice! And of course that turned into a car detail project. She’s nice and shiny. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duffman Posted May 21, 2019 Share #10 Posted May 21, 2019 Mike, is there any wheel offset? Any issues with the front rotor caps hitting the wheels? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These have a zero offset. No issue at all with the rotor caps. These are the 16x7 size. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
