Volk GTC's

Anyone know the proper offsets for 19" Volk GTC's to fit over Brembos? For the rears I'm being told 24. But per this link, it says something different...

Thoughts?

I have the VOLK GT-C... my setup is

19x9.5 front (face1) +21
19X10.5 rear (face2) +24

Pic of the front... the spokes have about an inch (give or take) of cleareance from caliper's

Thanks JDB. I'm going with the 8.5 up front and 9.5's in the rear. The rear is where I was concerned. Same offset for the rear 9.5 or 10.5?

Also, LOVE the blue calipers. Do you have a miracle way to acquire blue, or did you just pay out the @$$ for a whole new break set up?

Yeah, an inch of clearance is a lot. How did you get blue calipers? Looks hot!

JDB, those gunmetal GT-Cs look hot! Are those face 1 or face 2 on the front? Props on the ride!

I have the FACE 1 wheel up front... and dang beanZ... that thing is close... almost like how the SSR get... but SF's are hellah nice...

... as for the brakes... I just painted them with some anodized blue paint... I think the brand was plastikoat... something like that... Wasn't even caliper paint... but could still handle... no chips or cracks so far... and the brembo sticker is from xenonmods.com...

I think the difference with the face 1 and face 2 is the bend on the spokes...
