VOLK experts need help identifying wheel
Do Nissan dealerships sell look-a-like VOLKS? The guy I bought my car from offered me a great deal on some 19's wheels and tires ($2000 for mount balance and alignment). He said they normally sell for about 3500. I do not remember the tire sizes, and I do not know the offsets. They look exactly like the Volk RE-30. The only thing is the wheels do not say VOLK on them. The rims did have the words MADE in JAPAN on them. You can read the lettering on the front of the wheel, around the hub. I am not a rim expert at all, but from the back they definitely looked to be two-piece wheels. Does anyone know what wheel this could be?

RE30s aren't in 19s (yet)
all of the Forged Monoblocks from Volks will have imprinted on the rim VOLK RACING or RAYS Engineering like so:
example:
RE30:
TE37: (upper center)
The wheels should have the name imprinted on it too, i.e. RE30
and if they didnt fall off, they should still have the stickers unless they repainted it.
if they said it was Volk, but didnt have any of those markings on there, then they're probably fake. watch out.

Pretty sure your correct on that, Enkei has a wheel that looks a lot like the RE30...There are a lot of brands out there that knock off the VOlk style, Enkei is a good wheel though..

Definitely not those wheels. The dealership had a set of the Maxima Nismo on display also. The salesman never said they were Volks. They were on display and I asked him how much they were. He called me a day later and told me he could get them at his price, $2,000 for everything. After searching the internet, the RE30 are the closest match. I will take pictures this weekend, if they are still on display. Thanks for the help
