Default Ordered volk GT-V today............

I ordered new wheels today. I went with the volk racing GT-V in rays metal coat 19 inch. My question is do you guys think $4,080.00 sounds like to much? That was with toyo T1R's mounted, balanced, lugs, center caps and shipping. I just feel like it was a little steep. I'm thinking maybe I should of just went with mercury silver.

It's a little expensive, but isn't RMC like $120 extra per wheel? If so, that means Mercury Silver would have been about $3600 or so. Not sure what the going rate is right now for 19" Volks + Toyos. I think it's around $3300-3400, used to be around $3100-3200.

I paid $3180 for my GT-V's with the Toyo's, but mine are in silver not RMC. Still, $900 extra sounds like a lot for the RMC color. I did buy mine about a year and a half ago though, so maybe the prices have gone up.

Yeah I figured It was high. If I had bought them in mercury silver this is what it would of cost.
GT-V in mercury silver with caps $2500.00
Shipping to me $180.00
Toyo T1R $900.00
So the rmc costed me another $500. So now Im thinking if it was worth going with the rmc. I orded them through a vendor on here. What should I do?

put them on your car when you get them and be happy about having nice rims and a nice ride.

I got mine from 350zonlinestore.com, which isn't in business anymore as far as I know.

Wow man that's a lot of money... but I mean, if you're happy with the end result... your opinion is the only one that really matters. Post pics when you get 'em on the Z!

hate to break it to u buddy but that sounds actually like a fair deal... i just got quoted gunmetal sf-challenges for 2800... so with rmc, 4080 sounds right with toyos.

EDIT: and that price quote is from a big sponsor of this site.

Volk raised their prices a few months ago.... So the deal isn't that bad.

sorry to the OP, i don't mean to hijack, but i have a related question, and thought this would be a good place to ask.

i just got quoted $4479 for some 19" time attacks. this price includes michelin ps2 tires mounted and balanced (no charge), valve stems and center caps, and a free set of rays lugs.
this price also includes the shipping charge and state tax. do you guys think this is a reasonable deal? sorry again OP.

Michelin tires are exspensive. That sounds like way to much. I would shop around.
