Versus VV21S Matte Super Dark Gunmetal 18x9.5 5x100 38mm Offset
Here, you are looking at the VERSUS VV21S. This wheel is all new for the 2022 season bringing European styling into the Japanese market.
Manufacturing with an eye for the high-end target like sedans, touring wagons, SUVs, and European vehicles is in high demand. The brand-new shaped “Relief Pocket” composed alongside the advanced machining technology “A.M.T.”, and high execution that can only be achieved by RAYS is emphasized in the “VV21S”. Advanced weight saving features of the “Relief Pocket” is employed on the spoke side and the body finished in Matte Super Dark Gunmetal enhancing the spoke shapes. This reduces unnecessary weight on the spoke neck from the start of development and sublimates it into a new design. "VV21S", is a new sports shape created from advanced analysis technology and design ambition.
VV21S is composed with Y-type spoke configuration. Those slim spokes brings a sharp and sporty presence. However, sometimes a wheel with slim spokes do not match some vehicle types. The VV21S is slender, but it has a spoke side shape which can be said to be a sub-spoke, so to not lose the power of the vehicle, and while it is slender, it provides a dynamic feel.
Coloring
While It's easy to just make a black colored wheel, it is difficult for the black color to convey the face shape and details of the wheel itself. VV21S expresses the taste of two different colors with two different black variations. This offering, Matte Super Dark Gunmetal (APJ) gives the design visibility and contrast a three-dimensional effect.
Knurled Finish
Anti-tire slip feature is applied to the 18inch to support full-scale driving. The knurling finish on the bead seat is to resist slippage between the tire and wheel. It contributes to minimize the loss of traction and change in balance of tire when larger traction occurs.
A.M.T. : Advanced Machining Technology
'VERSUS' machined logo on VV21S: cutting edge technology that reproduces delicate designs even on three-dimensional curved surfaces using RAYS patented technology 'Advanced Machining Technology-AMT'. In order to establish this technique, RAYS has designed and developed in-house machine tools. The brand logo and credits, which were previously expressed in molds such as stickers and castings, are engraved with a three-dimensional effect to enhance the value of the VV21S.
Lens type center cap
Center cap for the Black in Black style is the injection lens type center cap. The RAYS logo floating in the back of the lens has presence in every situation. By employing dimensional glittery and a reflective logo, this center cap fascinates by its overwhelming presence and luxurious feel.
