Lightbulb opinions on rim choice/design..

hey guys,

what do you all think of this wheel:

www.volkracing.co.jp/arc3/sal/index.html

appreciate your inputs on the "style" and size(18x8+9, or18x9+10) i know they only go upto 18s, so please just let me know your thoughts on its design/finish(chrome/polish)

Salamanders are very nice wheels. From the pics I thought they're only for Vans but then seems like those sizes will fit the GS also.

Looks really nice Will and with some serious amount of lip too.. What would something like these cost in a chrome finish in the sizes you want??

Just curious..
