New Shoes!!! *PICS*

Hey guys,

Finaallly got my new shoes after a whole 2 weeks!! Again props to all of you guys who are willing to wait 2-3-4 months for your volks (bzabodyn)!! It took about 2 weeks for my order as discount tire direct did not have the rear tires in stock. Then they only shipped front 2 rims, rear tires got lost by UPS, so THEN I told them to send 4 rims w/ a different set of tires they had IN STOCK. So they offered me the BFG TA KDW2's the same price!! Awesome customer service although I was frustrated having to wait a second week to get em. Anyways here they are - Rays G-Games Wolf 77 2-piece Gunmetal w/ polished lip (19x9, 19x10). The tire sizes are 245/35/19 and 285/35/19. All I can say is shoes make a biiig diff. to the cars appearance and it seems people break their necks to get a glance.

without further ado..

I was lookin at these rims also as they seem to look almost exactly like challenges, are made by a respectable company and the price tag is great! Take some daytime pics so we can get a really good look at them!! Nice none the less man, props to you

IS300toG35,

you are correct, they do look similar to the challenges as well as the Gram lights 57f pro's, only slight differences, I believe the rivets and gunmetal colored portion which attaches to the lip on the challenges is also chrome/polished. The challenges also have more intricate details like the 'VOLK' inscribed inside the lip as wel as the 'CHALLENGE' near the spoke/lip portion. I have seen both SF challenges and gram lights in person and can agree they do look alike. As you said, great price for a forged rim, respectable company!! thanks for the kind words!!
