Volks are very common on the message boards... Not very common in the street - Unless you are going to a meet...

Jes-z, we have to meet up sometime when ur not busy so i can take a peak at them before i make a final decision....

If the GTS wheels are the ones you like then get them. Who cares what everybody else is getting. It's your money and your car. Put it together how you like it. Plus, many of the Volks wheels are classics. They've been around for years now and they're still in style...ie TE37s, SF Winnings, SF Ch, ...etc. I'm the only guy in town that's got a Z with these wheels in tit. gunmetal that I'm aware of and the DFW area is pretty big.

Exactly what I meant to say... In my area... I think Im the only one running Challenges... I see TE/LE/CE every now and then but for the most part not everyone out there has Volks...

I would if I could but after 5 years, she's basically a permanent fixture. On top of that she supports modding of the Z. She bought me the Nismo Floormats for X-mas. She cares. lol.

So are there any good vendors on here for rims + tires?
I'm looking for a set of 19x9.5/17F 19x10.5/18R with a set of tires - 245/35/19F 275/35/19R IF that would be the best fitment for the vehicle...

anyone with suggestions or fitment issues please let me know..also what drop would be the best for these wheels(im at stock height right now)

Default I'm sure you have heard this question a million times so...

I realize that this question has been asked to you all a million times, so I'm going to ask this question in a different way...please don't get mad...

Since there are alot of people with these wheels...I'm sure that somebody has this setup...

Does anybody have the GTS-wheels with Tanabe GF210 springs with 275/35/19 TOYO T1-R tires in the back??? My next question is: Did you modify (roll/cut the fenders) in the rear or is it not necessary if you have this setup???

thanks!
