Volk GT-C Face1/Face 2 confusion, help
i am interested in getting these, but i dont see any visual differences between the 2 faces? One of my friends say to get face 2 for the rears and face 1 for the front. They say it concaves in for face 2, but i still don't see it, would someone please like to explain or show me the differences.
Also where can i find pictures of all the different colors available for the gt-c's?
They come in gloss black, gunmetal, gold, and mercury silver, anything else?
RevOnline said they ship with Toyo T1R tires since they don't make the T1S anymore, are these tires the same quality if not better? It will come with...
Toyo T1R 245/35/19 up front and 275/35/19
caps, lug nuts, mounted, balanced
Are those tire sizes okay or should i go with 30 instead? im trying to fill up the gap between my fender and tires as much as possible, i have my car dropped on tein s-techs and would like the tire to tuck a lil if possible without the rear tire/rim sticking out, looks weird...
The offsets are a +21 up front on the face 1 wheel, and +23 on the rear face 2 wheel.
Is that a good offset to get, what do you guys recommend? Really need help before i go ahead and order these...
Thanks

in this picture it is pretty clear. the front rim is completely flat, but you can see the rear is concave.
EDIT- forgot your other questions. they also come in RBC, which is Volks version of black chrome. Those are pretty hard to come by and must be special ordered. you can probably also get them in RMC, the regular chrome version. the offsets sound good to me.

Reasoning for Face 1 and Face 2 is to simply allow for a more agressive off-set and rim width options (hence the reason why you would want a Face 2 GTC in the rear). Mixing them up, only adds to the dramatic stagered look, and adds a sportier stance. A Face 1 GTC would not yeild you as wide of a lip in the rear, with the same off-set and rin width a Face 2 GTC will... Make sense?

ducatiguy, thanks, i gotcha, is that how you have yours setup on your car? face 1 for front and face 2 for rears? i know you have 20's, how much did you pay for your gt-c's and what are the specs on your tire size, offset and rim width?
i plan on going 20's but now sure if i will need a camber kit, my car is dropped on tein s-techs springs...
