Question WHO is getting VOLK Gram Light 57 Pros?

I'm REALLY stuck on these wheels and can't shake the lust. Even with the dumb-*** extra five holes, I still dig them. Not in gold, but overall they're a killer wheel, IMO. Has anyone put them on a Z yet?

The dumb *** extra holes don't bother me. If you figure it was extra weight that was unnecessary...well, then at least it give reason. Who knows...maybe I'll find something custom to fill them with if I don't like them when they are on.

Mine are ordered...just waiting to get a confirmation number from Mackin to keep an eye on when they might be in.

Will be a while...but will post pics when installed this Spring! These wheels kick and I can't wait!

What size did you get and did you get any confirmation on weight?

No confirmation on weight...will see if I can get that info from one of the guys that just got back from Japan. Bought the 18 x 9 and 18 x 10's. I've got over 4.5"s of lip! Jealous?

Thanks,

Honestly the weight isn't a huge factor for me....I was told somewhere in the 25lb. area...but no one seems to be able to guarantee it. As long as they weight less than 30 it won't matter because I'm going to be supercharging as soon as the best of the best is out there to be bought! Just can't decide on the 295/35/18's or 285/35/18's? Either one hooks up well with a 265/35/18....and is only slightly off from the front to rear stock ratio. Gonna ride a little lower, but the only 285/40/18 and 265/40/18 combo is Pirelli PZero's and they are pricey.....I'm thinking a Toyo T1-S or Kumo Exsta MX offers a better value.

If you want the other specifics on the wheel...I've done my research...feel free to PM me.

Hey Droid,
I've been working with Driven on this one...well, he's actually done a lot more of the research, and I'm riding his coat tails! I'm about a day away from ordering these wheels as well...checking prices with various vendors, etc. Let one us know if you are interested. We can hook you up with Driven's guy...legit business, and a really nice price.
Yes, I will have a fat lip as well!
