Default Vertini Drift wheels

Hey guys, saw the new Vertini wheels called "Drift" and i can't help myself to think they're pretty much like Volk GTS. They look pretty hot like the GTS but look slightly different. The gold ones are especially sweet but i don't think i'd put them on my lemans sunset colored Z

I might consider them since they're available in 19's! I sent them an e-mail to ask what are the available offsets and lip sizes. Will get back as soon as i get the info.

you should get the "Fairlady's"... They match the type of car you drive!

not a big fan of the fairlady wheels from Vertini actually. the magic one is nice as well and was thinking about it also. Still undecided. Got an answer from the vertini wheel guys, told me they had the drift model in 20" as of now in stock. Still waiting for lip sizes and offsets, will get back to you guys as soon as i get them.

As i was considering the magic concaves, i was thinking maybe black matte with the lemans sunset color would be nice and still looking for the perfect wheel and body kit/lip kit combo.

Yeah but when you live far from the vendors that sell the volks, you pay more for converting into canadian dollars, shipping from the US to Canada, border taxes as well. you guys pay 3000$ for volks i may pay 4000$.

Some guy that i've been in contact with in forums in the area is seling 3 years used Volk GT7 and is asking 2500$ without tires. Ridiculous if you ask me...i had quotes for SSR SP1 for 2900$ brand new here from a vendor. Again taxes, shipping and all...2900$ may end up close to 4000$ as well. We do have vendors around here and i've been looking into it.

Anyway back to the topic, still waiting for an e-mail on the company's side.

They look almost identical. Even if they are copies but even the Work T1S are copies of the HRE wheels so who cares as long as it makes people happy. I've said so before on this forum: "Everyone is member here to share a common interest, and not a common budget"

Who cares if they're Volk, XXR, Konig, Enkei, Varrstoen. I wouldn't go ebay for a turbo kit though haha.

Whatever floats people's boats!
