I'm looking for a set of Sf winnings too, but this sounds too good to be true.

So i went to have a look at it today and it's actually 8.5F and 9.5R, is that still a good size for a g35 coupe?

Thanks guys.

So i found this pretty sweet deal:
Used Volk SF Winning in black made in 2005



Varrstoen (1.1.2, 2.2.2, 3.3.2 are all nice imo)
-IMO, they look nicer (all of them look much more aggressive)

Are you sh!tting me? Wow, just wow is all I can say. This thread makes my head hurt.

Would you have thought this question would EVER be asked on Driver? I know I didn't.

so you are not a fan of polished lips. take the money you save and have the lips painted and still have money left over.....you also would be rolling on legit wheels not fakes.

so I kind am in the same situation as he is. Found a pair of sf-winning but not for the same price much higher and was just wondering should I go with replicas for cheaper with a more aggressive set up...19x9.5 and 19.10.5 or would these sf-winning be good enough 19.8.5 and 19.9.5

i drive a coupe g35 black

I was also in the same situation a few weeks ago, the ones i found were also a bit more pricier and its also 19" 8.5/9.5.

In the end, i went with the SF winning because like everyone said, the real legit stuff will have a much better resale value and driving on authentic volk's would make you feel much better and safer knowing that it has the quality you're looking for.

I also have a black coupe.

They are my first wheels i've ever gotten, so all i can tell you is that they look MUCH better than the OEM 19" forged Rays.

The SF winnings will need spacers in the front to make them sit flush with the fender, probably 10-15mm .

I'm still not sure why there's so much bitterness towards Varrstoens.
They make no bones about what they are, it's not like they're slappin volk stickers
on replica wheels.
Can't really see how one company's replica will fvck up the whole wheel community.
Knock-offs have been around forever in every industry.
Thats what makes this country great. Free market baby!
