I cannot get a good angle to capture how good these rims look. I loved my SF Challenges, but these look ten times better. I went with the aggressive +17/+18 offset. My rears did not clear my BBK, but I was ready with a 5mm spacer and I can now barely clear a credit card in back.
your wheels look amazing Zmotion. I'm about to order the wheels but I still would like to see the difference between mercury and chrome silver.
BTW will the aggresive offsets fit the non-brembo brakes? and what exactly did you use for a 5mm spacer? and finally, did you have to roll your fenders?
awesome wheels......

There's no such thing as chrome silver volks unless you get them custom painted. The only chrome they have is the RMC which is a full chrome job. If you go back a few pages you can see them in this thread.
No rolling of the fenders, but I think something is rubbing on deep undulations. I cant tell for sure though but I will test it more tonight and report back.
A 5mm spacer is just a small disc that you put on prior to mounting your wheels. It gives 5mm of separation to allow for the larger calipers. At that low of a space, you don't need to fiddle with longer studs or anything. You can get them at most tire places but here is a link so you can see them.

The pics just don't do these wheels justice. I have been asked to take some different angles so I will post them up shortly.

Thanks for the info Zmotion but I think you're inaccurate about the chrome silver. This picture is right off the Rays website. There is a clear difference between all three wheels. The picture on the Rays site is too small to really get an idea. The first wheel is the color I'm trying to find a picture of. I've seen RMC in person and I like it. I also have seen the Mercury Silver in person and I like it too. It looks great on your car as well. If I can't find a pic in the next couple of days I might just go with Mercury Silver.

I guess I stand corrected, but this must be a new color because I have never heard of it. Maybe this is the new Spark Silver.....
One other thing I wanted to mention is I did not use the center caps that came with the wheels. I used my old ones from my SF challenges. Take a look at both and when you order, ask for the one you like. I think the new center caps are more for dark wheels as that is where the trend is now....cheers

Is Spark Silver the more flat color? Judging by the pics, I'm thinking of going with Mercury, it even seems to match the door handles nicely. My Z is CS so I think it'll look good.
