Every now and again we get cars come up for sale, from friends, customers and other business from around the world, unfortunately due to time and our busy schedule it’s just not possible to list them all, we are working on a self upload application that we hope to integrate into our website some time at the start of 2017, so we can help more people find their ultimate modified whip, it will take a bit of time to develop, but it’s on our list of things to do.

One car that has come up for sale over the last couple of weeks, is our good friend Julio Garcia, incredible and we mean I N C R E D I B L E Audi R8, it's done the rounds all over social media, especially Instagram, most instagramer’s will know him as AIR_R8, and for those that don’t know the man or the car, this was the very first bagged air ride Audi R8 to hit the streets stateside, so the guy has his finger well and truly on the pulse when it comes to style and fineness, from any viewing point this R8 is just sublime.

Audi R8 20'' AG Luxury AGL24

As we have got to know Julio over the past couple of years we can tell you he has spared no expense building this fine specimen of Audis finest, it’s been through 4 sets of wheels that we know of, and the air ride system install is second to none, its quality of the very highest calibre, the stance of this beauty sits is awe-inspiring.

Even though we knew about the car, it wasn’t until the first set of AG forged wheels that we really started to take notice, the directional spoke of the F433, finished in gold bullion looked absolutely on point, concave spec 2 profile centres, it was such a great look, so we were pretty surprised when Julio said he was changing them, we didn’t think the look could be improved, but we were wrong, the wheel of choice was an vast improvement in the form of the AGL24 from the AG Luxury arm of the company, we would like to think we were of some assistance in his new choice, as a few weeks previously we were the first company to have this design manufactured, for Plush Automotives very own carbon Fibre Audi RS6, the colour was also perfect for the white body R8, with brushed Grigio centres and gold bullion flange, hardware and cap.

For more details on the car and for full spec, drop us an email and we will put you in direct contact, if you are in the market for one of Audi’s finest, this is one stunning R8 that is worth taking a closer look at.

The luxury arm of AG Wheels ( Avant Garde ) have released yet another new wheel design, THE AGL34 and this time around it's been released in 1 piece Monoblock, which they have done from time to time this year, and we can see it's going to be a popular design, especially in the SUV , and Luxury vehicle market.

We love a six spoke wheel design at VAD, we have our own design that has done exceeding well over the last 18 months, and the AGL34 design is going to be a wheel in demand.

The first vehicle to test ride the design is the mighty new Range Rover Sport, and the finish shows the design off perfectly, the size fitted here is 10.5x22 front and rear and really shows the concave profile of the monoblock, the Monoblock is becoming a very popular forged choice in today’s wheel market as it has so many plus benefits, super strong, and lighter than any other forging, shedding the unsprung weight has a big advantage with any vehicle application, especially the larger vehicles, we can see this design adorning a lot of vehicles and looking right at home.

As with all AG Wheel design the AGL34 will be available in all of the usual monoblock size 19” 20” 21” 22” & 24” staggered set ups are available, with 2 piece duoblock and 3 piece configurations also being added to the line up, the 3 piece option you get the added advantage of standard or concave, with the various spec 1, spec 2 & spec 3 choices available in the concave profile, the finish choice is endless, it’s a design we are very much looking forward to seeing on a lot more vehicles in various configurations.

 

AG wheels have been on a mammoth growth over the last couple of years, and we are please to be onboard with such a great company, we are extremely proud of all our brands , but unfortunately none of them give us the freedom with have with the boys at Avant Garde, with VAD looking after the European market, its a brand we are thriving with, other wheel manufacturers could learn a lot from them with the way they go about their business and treat their dealer network, they are a breath of fresh air, yes there is pressure, yes they want to sell wheels, but we work in complete harmony, which helps with the end result, selling wheels.

The Luxury arm of Avant Garde Wheels, are setting the benchmark with all the new designs that are hitting the streets, and these new designs are real beauties, the AGL31 and the AGL32, both offering something a little different to the market.

The first vehicle to be enhanced by the new AGL31 is the stunning BMW i8, and we have to say its completes the car perfectly, its such a great look on the i8, boy we love those curves.

Wheels shown on the BMW i8 are finished in brushed Grigio, in sizes 8.5x22 front and 10x22 rear the wheel has been built with the concave profile, and whats known as the spec 3 configuration, or as some know it as the floating spoke, its a great look with this colour way.

Another new wheels design thats just been launched is the AGL32, shown here in its monoblock for, so this one will be super light weight design, as with all the AG wheel designs, all designs are available in 1, piece Monoblock, 2 piece Duoblock and 3 piece forged, in concave or standard profiles, so we will be looking forward to seeing the design 32 in a concave 3 piece look, in the specification 3 configuration.

For all European enquiries on the AG Wheels and AG Luxury wheel ranges, email the team at VAD with vehicle details, along with design, finish and size information and we will be more than happy to assist with your request.
