you can go wider, but it'll start bulging. i've seen supra guys stick 315 in the rear of their stock wheels (9.5").

just a thought sascha...you may be going for the look and in that case this post has no real point. With a gs300 it wouldnt really performance wise be neccisary to have anything wider then 275 right? I bet you wouldnt be able to light them up anymore even with 275's. Those volk challenges are freaking awesome wheels though.. I love the inside lip that says volk racing on it.

Like what Mike said there's no point in going too wide. 285, 295 already superwide. Ask Mkilty about this.

Volk Racing doesn't make custom offsets for people. If they do you'll either have to be some kinda professional racer who's really tight with RAYS and have some sort of sponsorship, or you'll have to be the owner's son.

Just to let you know, F-Zero Challenges has 17x10 and 18x10 as the widest size (but 19s only go up to 19x9.5........ weird).

The only Volk Wheels with custom sizes and offsets are the 3 racing wheels they have.......... they will cost more than TE37 MAGs.
