Default New Wider 19" Wheels



I'm rolling on Work VS-SS 18x7.5 +32 with 25mm spacers right now, not very wide so decided to pick up something more aggressive.

Can't wait to get these on. 19x8.5 +24, 19x9.5 +27 on 245/35 FK452s.

Will post pics once I pick up some Ray's lugs. Hopefully tomorrow if I have time after work.

No, Work VS-SS and Volk GT-Cs are two completely different animals.

Sucky thing is my car isn't lowered yet and my kit hasn't been painted. I'm trying to piece it all together too quickly. Repainting the car as well. I just bought the SC less than 2 months ago.

Got them off an ex 07' GS300 owner (original owner). Guy was totally cool, he ditched the GS and bought a G37. The wheels weren't aggressive enough for the G37. So here they are sitting in my room.

Polish isn't good for Volk wheels as the lip has a clear coat over it. Wax is the only thing that can be used on the lip and spokes. Z/G owners found out the hard way by putting metal/aluminum/mag polish on the lip.

LoL believe it or not the previous owner barely put any miles on the wheels, why they are so clean. Practically brand new wheels and tires.

Just got home an hour ago from picking up the hub rings, lugs and locks. Glad I didn't get the regular tapered Ray's lugs. Damn GTCs require their own special lugs. Will put it on tomorrow after work. Woohoo! Here's what the car looks like now on 18s.
