i have the v2's, they are IMO the better looking wheel out there, ANNND not completely played out and just plain gay like the lenso's, everyone under the sun has them...the star 8's are cool as **** but soon will be played out as well i think and the more i looked at them the less i liked them plus i bought front and rear V2's for the price of just front star 8's...

Its not a knock off, he bought the actual Lenso castings and just continued to make the wheel, under his name

HAHAH....funny ****...

I'm rockin em and I have no complaints. Although, I ball on a budget so I went for the cheaper wheel, but IMO they look bad *** too. I was just in for something different, like dude said, EVERYONE has lensos and what not...

you should be able to use a 9" tire no problem with the right spacer. I generally run 1/2" spacers on any slick setup just to ensure proper clearance.

And looking like a TE37 is WAY more played out and more 'wanna-be' than an original wheel that just happens to work lol

lenso's have been around before there were no other wheel being made for the FWD scene and i had a set of fronts back when they were still called lenso's, i had a set of fronts from will back when he just started selling them, ive had bogarts drag on fly's, weld magnums, exoxpeeds, v2's, bogart pro 4's, exospeeds again, and now v2's again, i personally like to change up what i have and what other don't...for a while i remember when everyone had bogarts, and just short time ago many people had magnums. to each thier own, but the v2's is just my personally opinion

Which is fine, but just don't throw other companies under the bus or spread info that isn't true. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion but no need to be crude about it.

That V-dub looks really good with these wheels, more of an old school lool
