Well I ordered them from 350Z online, seems to service a lot of people here, and Bryan has been excellent with the info plus he responds quick and always with an answer. I ordered them about 3 weeks ago and he said I'll get them in about 2 weeks or so but I am sure they will be beyond perfection. Chaparro, you got lucky man, but good for you bro. I am getting Diamond Blk 19x8.5 fronts and 19x9.5 rear with some Toyo's T1s. I didn't try to drift to far from the norm. I'll probably order the springs like the day after I mount the rims to make sure it all good.

I waited about 45 days...but its now the middle of winter and I still have yet to mount them. This is my 3rd set of Volk wheels (first for the Z) and if I had to do it again I would have bought another brand. On most other cars Volks are a rare wheel...but it seems on a Z they are more of an entry level wheel that EVERYONE has.

I waited over 4 months for mine, and I couldn't wait any longer so I ended up getting a color they had in stock. They ended up coming in after about 5 months.

Ordered:

19" Volk GT-7 Noble Gold

Settled For:

19" Volk GT-7 Diamond Black

Nothing entry level about them. There are few that cost more and way less that look better. I would call the Axis (especially Hiro) wheels the entry level wheel. .

Ok maybe entry level was the wrong phrase but you must admit that it seems like 1/3 of the people on this board have Volk wheels.

It's going to be 2 months on Feb. 2nd that I've been waiting for my SF-winnings - I ordered custom offsets, so to get the right look I wanted, I was going to have to wait - hopefully they'll be here the end of Feb. or beg. of March... if not, I might go insane!!!

I don't mean to hijack this thread but I have a Volks wheels related question for one of you owners.

I'm interested in the Silver volks Te37/Le37. Are those painted silver or is it polished metal? I understand that one of those models has a polished lip and that leads me to believe the spokes are painted.

Thanks
Dave

I had to wait for 2 and a half months for mines to get here because they weren't in stock and they had to get special ordered from Japan. Glad everything worked out fine for you.

well, I got the word that mine are in this container, so they'll probably get to me in like 2 1/2 weeks or so - they are no longer importing SF-winnings (all are going to be special order to US from now on) so I think I will have a rare set of wheels as well... I can't wait!
