Velocity at Bimmerfest By: James Yi
Introducing the New Velocity Motoring V710 Wheel
 Just who I wanted to see-the infamous Velocity Motoring! When I heard that they were one of the larger vendors supporting Bimmerfest, I just knew they had something big. I decided to go over to their booth and get some information about any upcoming products that they may have.
Not surprisingly, Velocity had a new wheel and gauge for Bimmerfest! The wheels were called the Velocity V710. A 7 spoke, dual-spoke, 19" staggered (19x8.5 and 19x9.5 to be specific) wheels with a planned Hypersilver finish. Their offsets on these wheels were ET35 and possible ET20 in the front, and ET22, 33, and 45 in the rear. Those offsets are just what BMW enthusiasts will be looking for because the offset combinations work with practically every BMW! Of course, with such a nice looking wheel, the price could only be heart-stopping-well, there's no specifics on pricing yet, but I can tell you that I was told the pricing will be between the VMR CSL style wheels and the VMR V715. For those Velocity fans, you know that for four wheels, a price range like that is unbeatable! Of course, these wheels are VIA and JWL certified for quality assurance.
Their next upcoming product was the Integrated Vent Gauge (IVG), which was actually already out for the Volkswagen! The IVG will be available soon for the BMW 335 as well with a retail price of $199! Of course, Velocity has not forgotten about other popular makes, such as Subaru and Mitsubishi. The estimated time of availability for the IVG is Summer of 2008.
Not only did they have new products, but they have a more updated line on the RS4 style wheels as well as their V714. Their RS4 style wheels will soon come in 18" setups for the Audi A3s, which is big news for the Audi fans that love the look of the RS4 wheels. For the V714, there will be a new size for them-20" V714s. Currently, they have the 20x8.5" V714s, non-staggered, with low offsets (ET15) in stock. They do have future plans for the staggered setup, completely the 20" sizes with a 20x10" rear wheel.
 Velocity has been quite a tease while I took a look around and talked to them about what they will have available. Everything may not be available yet, but they will be soon. One thing for sure, you can be assured that ModBargains will be the first to have these ready for your wheel needs in the near future! Keep your eyes open and come back to our site often. As soon as these are available, you can get your hands on one through us.
