Those are not Volk GTS. They look like 1 piece wheels.

BTW, back to the subject, I'm very curious to see how these will fit. Alone, you'd have to roll the fenders, but with 5mm spacer? wow.


btw, don't you mean you run 19x9.0 R disk +21??? They don't offer that offset in A-disk I last I checked.

no, they are not volk gts.

they are ro_ja formula 5

they are 2 piece forged. im happy with them. living in the bay area with all the pot holes and such, they have survived so far with the low profile tires.

yes my mistake, when i first ordered the wheels i did order A disc but after talking it over with my sales rep, he said R disc would be better cause if i ever planned on getting a BBK and that A disc might not fit over the IS350 brakes cause of their OEM size.

good eye..

I can't wait to see what its gonna take to fit these. If there is any rolling or pulling, please document the whole process.
