GTC Wheels GT-CX model (exact same look as VMR)

[HaywireTig]

Hi everyone

I have always liked the look of the VMR V710 look. But just last night, I came across a brand in Clayton, VIC called GTC Wheels selling the GT-CX model that appears to look exactly like the VMR V710's!!!! And they are going for $999 for a set of 4!

Does anyone know anything about them and their quality? I can't seem to find much info abt them except for this:

Well done good sir, you've answered one of my prayers (refer to my post in wheels...) I've been looking for VMR reps and you have nailed it!

pictures please!!!

They look good! Do you know if they do 20"s?

[MGV]

They look good, Dan!! Get a set!!
Reportedly <10kg's whereas equivalent from VMR are reportedly 11.5ish...
Note, my VMR's were $999 also, just had to pay 400 bucks to get 'em here...

[HaywireTig]

Hahahah woohoo!!! I'm glad I'm not the only one looking for a "cheaper" version of VMR's.

Search eBay for "GTC GT-CX wheels Tiguan" and u can see pics. If u jump into VMR's website and see the V710's w this GT-CX wheels side by side, it's exactly the same.

So far, I don't think they do 20's mate. Only 18's and 19's it seems. Who's keen? Haha I wonder if this could be a start to a GB???? Haaha

Yea Matt. I'm sooooo tempted. I love the V710 look. Yes I understand its the shipping that would make it more expensive. With a local shop in VIC, it makes it soooo tempting. I could safely say I'm leaning towards this GT-CX wheels 99%!!!

Guys,

I have got a reply from the seller at Euro.Division on a potential Group Buy for a set of 19" GT-CX wheels. This is what he says:

"If you can get 3 Sets or above we will offer them for $900 each."

They don't have a physical store but a warehouse in Clayton VIC. They are solely an online biz.

Does this tempting to anyone here???

Pls let me know so that I can get the numbers up!! I'm excited!!!

I have these wheels; hes a good seller & the product is awesome. My GTI looks wicked.
I believe these are original VMRs hes brought & had to do a name change for some reason...

[HaywireTig]

Yea?? If it is, I'm more than happy to pay lesser for a different 'brand'!!

Good find Haywire

[HaywireTig]

Apparently this thread from a Golf forum seems to say that the GTC wheels are from the same factory as the VMR wheels!!! Plus points for confidence in quality!

Hey mate, I visited the joint in Clayton and had a good chat with Jason. He's a nice guy. Had a look and they are nice. I was going to get a set then and there but didnt have enough funds. Anyway, point of my post is, I'm in for a set of 18" matt black's. So we now need one more person?

[HaywireTig]

Did u have a chat w Jason? I haven't spoken to him per se except thru email/text but he's pretty quick to respond. Was it just recently u met him and saw the goods?

Yes. It's just me and u at the moment. Need one more. R u thinking of getting the wheels quick? I had posted on some other forums as well hoping to get a respond. But none yet so far. But it's only been 2 days.
