OoO i like,lol i also like the GTS better than the SF Challenge hence the ridig spoke design, SF Challenge looks too round for me. considering im going for a very aggressive look i'd like to keep the rims with the style. also you cant beat a 4.3" lip which i've heard rumors you can get 5", not sure how though.

Anyone have these GTC's 8.5/9.5 on their DBz?
I have the 9.5/10.5 GTC which i will be selling when i find time to snap pics.

Its funny somebody posted pics of Cat's car(the DB Z). We got our wheels at the same time, same color too. I know she ran the 8.5/10.5 setup...i have the 9.5/10.5 setup if you're interested. Offset is +24/+21...good size lip in rear

I recently found out that the +23 offset has more lip in the front then the +18 for the fronts in the GTS 9.5".

Congrats on your purchase and welcome to the Volk (GTS) family.

Interested in your wheels. Can you please post (or email) some pics? Are tires included? If so, what are the specs?

Also, what's the asking price shipped to 94506? Thanks.

So i figured i'd bring this post back up to speed as i need new wheels and it's the time where i can buy them. The story goes i initially purchased new Volk GT-S had them for about a year, put them in storage for winter, and some douchebag employee of our company stole them, we caught whoever it was, yet we couldn't get the wheels(guess they were sold or something, not sure).

But insurance got me 4k to drop for a new set, now decisions come into play and im not exactly sure what to do..
I had Mercury Silver Volk GTS 9.5/10/5 +17/+18 offsets which were crazynice. I'm debating weather to go with the same yet a darker color hence the daytona blue, the same wheels exactly, Volk GTVs, or should i lower the set and head with something like Axis or something...not too sure what to do, i heard alot of complaints about Axis wheels cracking and such so im not sure if i want to go that route..any advice would be great..like i said its just a check, i'm not obligated to buy 4K worth of wheels/tires.lol

How about you get something other than GTS; you might like a new style. I hope you cut off that employee's hands

well if i cut off his hand i wouldn't be allowed to drive my car anymore so =p j/k but i may go with a different style.

Volk GTV Black/Gunmetal
Volk GTF Black/Blue(to match DB)
Axis Matrix
Axis Shine

really not sure what to go with...like i said i could spend all the $ on the wheels and tires or put it toward other things such as a nice 2007 CF hood from Seibon, or maybe some interior work or engine mods.

I remember responding to this post a long time ago But since my GT-S I'v had 4 other sets of wheels. I decided to go with Work Meisters.

Do not get the Axis wheels. Either of those Volks would look great on your car.
