Default The first in the U.S.? VOLK's 57-F

I went to the wheel store earlier this week just to look and probably purchase a set of TE-37's when the guy who worked there said he just got in a new wheel from Volk I thought what the hell I'll look. The rest was history, he told me that this was the first and only set in the U.S. if that is true or not I don't know. But I do like them, when he took them out of the box he did it with one hand only, and then only using 3 of his digits. He was by no means diesel the wheels are just unbelievably light. They are 18's 8,5 inthe front and 9.5 in the rear no change there but I did get 'em wrapped in Yokohama's AVS sport tires 245/40's and 275/35's on the rear. And just as an added touch as well as security I got the Volk lug nuts too. Enjoy!

Those are the 57F which aren't new the 57F-Pro are the new wheels which are 2 piece. Doesn't matter to me because they look really nice on your ride.

That looks really good, do you know what is the offset that you are running?

Good question and I'm not sure but I do know that just like how the TE-37's do the rear wheel is concave and the fronts are like a high disc.

Offsets Rays says should be used are +30 front and +38 rear. However they also have a +20 for 18x9.5 and +22 for 18x10.5. I would love to see these wheels on a black Z
