Worst case I will sell them on ebay and should make enough to pay for my replacement Sevas (the one that was cracked by a rock in the road )

Yes a lot of people have Volks but it is for a reason. They are one of the best wheels made and less $$ than iForged or HRE.

I don't care who else has them as long as it is what I want. I think my car is more than unique enough without having one of a kind wheels. Look at the Volk TE37, that is one of the most popular wheels out there but soooo sweet looking. I wanted the 20" but the best price I could find anywhere was $4600!!

It's hard to make a vote. I don't like the look of the Gunmetel, but I also don't like the look of your Sevas. I like the Chrome look of the sevas, but the skinny spokes don't do it for me. The Sevas are nice, just missing something though. If you paint the Volks, what colors are you looking at?
You know you are putting those Volks on, so you might as well post those pics .

I say stick with the Sevas. I dont think Gunmetal on black looks good and I am not a fan of those volks.

After looking at this Z, I have to say Gunmetal doesn't look bad. Guess it just depends on the wheels.
I think that Floyds G w/ the 18's gave me a bad taste for the GM

Yeah on Craigslist. They were off the M45 that Yokohama used at Sema. The pics he sent me look very nice. We'll see.

Those look hot!!!

I think the big problem with the sedan is all the chrome trim. It might be too much. I could always do something about the trim.
