Morr vs ADV.1

I'm looking into buying new wheels for the next summer season, right now it's between Morr VS8.2 and ADV8.1 (maybe 7.1)

I'm looking for street performance 19", 245 front and 275 (maybe 285) rear and will be going with Michelin Super Pilot tires. What do you guys think?

PS: Is there any chance to get a better price let's say in November? Since it's for the next season I'm not in hurry.

I'd choose based on weight and pricing differences

Judging from the spec - I can guarantee the MORR VS8.2 SpunForged will be lighter than the ADV.1
To give you an idea: here's the weight info on the VS8.2
- 19x9.0 ET22mm - 19.8 lbs (painted & cleared)
- 19x10 ET20mm - 23.6 lbs (painted & cleared)

Price wise - a set of VS8.2 will be several thousand dollars more cost effective than the ADV.1 as well.

In any case - let me know if you needed pricing on either, we are authorized dealers for both.

My morrs feel amazing and after meeting them over at bimmerfest, I wouldn't go any other way for wheels. And yes I meant "feels " amazing. the light weight and rigidity of the wheel translate to more feel at the wheel and a more tosseable z4 compared to my vmr's and same tires.

i am considering selling my signature black VS8.2's if anyones interested LMK. I could use the money to get a 18" track setup instead of running these on the streets.
