Default New look for 2006......DB Volk GT-7

My Volk GT-7's arrived today.

19 x 9.5 +23 255/35/19 toyo
19 x 10.5 +30 285/35/19 toyo

I am on stock suspension and so far the tires don't rub, although I really haven't beat the car with the new wheels cause I am running really rich. Mark from SGP is coming out next week to install the HKS FCON V-pro and will be retuning. My car was tuned in Houston and the temp was 50 degrees. It's in the high 80's in Miami and the car didn't take well to the temp increase.

Big thanks to Chris from F1 Motorsports for the great price and awesome service. I orginally put a deposit on these rims at the end of September 2005, and shortly after fried 3 pistons on my motor. Chris couldn't let me cancel the order because he had already recieved them, but offered to hold my wheels until I got my car back. That's service! I bought the caps, but they are on back order so as soon as Chris gets them he will ship them to me.

I'll give the car a good detail and post pics and new dyno numbers after the HKS FCON is installed.

no change in the ride height, but they fill the wheel wells a little better. The only reason I am getting a suspension is for the stiffer ride. I don't really care about being lowered. I hate scraping and having to drive like an old lady especially when entering strip malls.

My specs are 19x9.5" +19 and 19x10.5" +29. I also have 5mm spacers for the rear as well. I'm thinking of buying another set so I'll keep you posted.

(sorry for the thread hi-jack!)
