Default Volk question

I've noticed that Volk uses the same lips for thier rims. So I was wondering if there was anywhere you could buy just the middle of the rims and swap them out?

Am I crazy or is this possible?

Why would you think that the lips are the same? None are the same.

Because 99% of the people out there don't know what goes into making a wheel.

The bolt patterns are different so the faces are interchangable.

Besides that, each face type (i.e. GTF) bolts together differently to the lip.

Why do I think they are the same? because they look the same to me. Thx for the help guys

I just looked online at a couple different volk wheels and the lips look the same, so its a valid question. Save the ******** comments for another thread.
