My new Volk GT-U's!!

OK.....I'm very happy!
Supposedly, this is the first set in the country in these offsets and sizes for the G.
9"'s in front and 10"'s in rear.

I'm glad you finally got them and you are happy Sorry I couldn't help you out more, but those are a nice set of wheels.

Re: My new Volk GT-U's!!

Thanks!
I'm from the old school and think that 18's are the right choice for the G.
I have a huge selection of tires to choose from.....and did not sacrifice ride quality for looks.
The 275/40's on the rear are HUGE compared to stock and come right to the outside edge of the fender.

Re: My new Volk GT-U's!!

The rims look real hot, but I think you went with too much rubber (40) Shoulda went with a 35, and also DROP IT lol. Get some springs or coilovers on that boy and your good to go, again rims look serious. Martin

Re: My new Volk GT-U's!!

Nope, the old guy did the rightt thing. Unlike you, he has a coupe, and should maintain the stagger. The 245/40/18 fronts and 275/40/18 rears do just that. The coupe looks great with his choice of wheel and tire.

Re: My new Volk GT-U's!!

IMO those are the best looking Volks on the market...very original. Great choice in tire size as well. All you need as a slight drop to top it all off.

Re: My new Volk GT-U's!!

Thanks guys......
I expected the "gotta have 20"'s" people to say they are too small....but I like them!
Actually.....I hope no one likes them enough to buy a set....maybe I'll have the only ones on a G! LOL
