Is the Variant Xenon A Good Car Wheel?

Variant Xenon Car Wheel Review
We're back at it with another Variant wheel review for you today. Recently we talked about the Variant Argon, and today we've got the second of Variant's current lineup, the Xenon. This is another wheel that's made using Variant's unique reverse tilt casting and cold vertical forging processes, which gives the Xenon a nice strength-to-weight ratio, while still providing excellent lightweight design and performance.
The Xenon is a great wheel option for a ton of different builds, so join us below as we take you on a deeper dive into what it's capable of for your car!

Top Design Features of the Variant Xenon Car Wheel
The Variant Xenon has a nice design to it, with a split five-spoke look that all dive back toward each other. That's a great look for many bigger cars, and you'll also notice quite a bit of concavity to this wheel too - this really makes the wheel pop, especially when you pair all that concavity with such big spokes.
Now, of course, it'll vary with the sizes and offsets that are offered with the wheel, so if you get a narrower wheel with a lower offset, you won't see as much concavity as you otherwise would. The example we have, though, is a 19x11 +41, and you can see a good amount even with that setup.

Sizing Options and Best Fitment For the Variant Xenon
As far as sizes go on the Xenon, they're available in diameters of 19 and 20 inches and widths between 8.5 and 11 inches, along with offsets from +15 to +50. That's a decent range of sizing to choose from for bigger-bodied cars like Audis, BMWs, and even newer Hondas, like the new Accord generation and other models that offer a bit more of that modern muscle look that we've been seeing more in the market lately.
Finish Options For the Variant Xenon
So, what are your options for finishes if you're looking at the Xenon for your build? For the most part, the finish options are pretty standard, with Satin Black, Gunmetal, and Bronze all available. However, Variant does offer some unique transparent finishes as well for a little bit of extra cost, which features some machining underneath the finish itself. That leads to a bit of a brushed look showing up on the wheel, which is really nice and stands as one of our favorite finish types on the market right now.
