new toys arrived!! (hint, volk)
Well boys, i thought it was time for new shoes. So here they are.
Volk Racing Gram Lights - Gold Finish
18x9 front
18x10 rear
Enjoy, I dont have tires yet, but I will be putting them on in the spring when this white stuff melts...
Kevin
Ps. Whats the widest tire we can fit in the rear without rolling the fenders? I have searched, but I havent come up with a definate answer. Thanks!

I'd love to see the pics with them on the car. 
I was thinking about getting those, but I swear... they were discontinued...? Anyhow, post pics up when they're on your white car.

Sorry boys, they are going back. There is a problem. I was told they were 18x9, 18x10... and all 4 are 18x9... anyways they are from a private seller on SF.com and I am hoping to get my money back from this transaction... I will let you know what happens.

I talked to Ben at Wheelboutique.com (ext. 201 if you call), he told me that the widest I could fit is an 18x9 in the front and 18x11 in the rear, and the widest rear tire would be a 295 if I DID roll the fender! Apparently he used to own and SC300 w/ a 2jzgte swap and big ol' 19's so if you want to talk wheel sizes, he seems to have a lot of good infomation,.... give him a call.

I got a set in Gunmetal or "Silver Grey".
That sucks that you got all 4 that are 18x9. You gotta have the 18x10 in the rear with that fat lip.
I got my set through Dusty @ MVP Motorsports. Real cool guy to deal with. You should give him a try and see if he has a set in Gold remaining.
As for tires, I'm running 245's in the front and 275's in the rear. I rub slighty over hard dips in the rear, so I have to shave and/or roll my rear fenders. My car is lowered either. You can try 265/35's in the rear though...
Hope this helps dude...
