What a stupid-*** comment! The GT-7s are classic Volk wheels. Not many people (unless you come to these forums) will even know what wheel is what unless they look closely. But most guys who knows even a lick about wheels will recognize the GT-7s.

VtotheZ - Keep the wheels and lower your car (maybe Tein H- or S-Tech). I know what you mean about road condition is the IE - they are brutal! That's the main reason I also went with 18" wheels.

To the OP, keep the wheels dude. I think you've been peer pressured into
19's. Those 18 GT-7 looks great and all you need to do is lower the car tad bit. (Tein S-Techs will do just fine)

Since most of the cats on the boards swears by 19's, you are not going to get much for your wheels. Initially for myself I was going to get 19 CE28. But I realize I commute the crap out of my car and the larger wheels was simply not practical.

One quick question to the OP, what is your offset?

If your still not convinced staying with your GT-7. Go look at the 18 wheels thread...there are some sick set ups in there!

Sell them. I was never a fan of GT-7. Not aggressive enough IMO.

i'd sell them. Never really like the look of the gt-7s, plus their 18s. 19s look ok without drop, but the 18s look pretty bad without one. And yeah, a fat lip will make it look better too.

[QUOTE=VtotheZ]Hey guys I have a set of 18' Volk GT-7's wrapped with some falkens. I really am trying to sell them because I really think that if your gunna have a lip on the Z you gotta go 19' at least. My rims look so small, and I dont really enjoy the look of 7 spoke but whatever. But there VOLKS, and I know VOLKS are pimp!!!!!!

Anyway there not selling at all, I even lowered the price down to $1800 which I think is insane. I found some Racing Heart R5 pro's I really like and there 19's with a FAT lip =)

Should I keep my volks????

Who wrote this and is he talking about looks of his Z with these rims or picnics?
