Default Should I keep my Volk's?

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????

if you are not going to mod you're car much more than you already have I say keep the volks. but if you are planning to add a bodykit or go FI or the like. you are going to need some better rims.

i'm not really feeling the 7 spokes either

if you want to look good in front of others, i'd probably get something with a bigger lip and 19 inch because frankly, alot of people don't know that those are volks unless they read the stickers.

The RH R5 Pros are really nice and i've owned a set of RH J5 Pros and they had a very nice lip. If you want best looking, I would go with those.

Also, maybe you should try posting your rims on other car forums if you haven't already. I know 18 inch rims are pretty popular on supraforums.com and is300.net. If the offsets on your rims are more than +32ish than it should fit supras and is300s.

LOL. Thanks for all the input guys. I have always wanted like the GTS, I love the 5 spoke look. I really dont wanna slam it or lower it much. The roads and speed bumps where I live are CRAZY rediculouse. But yes I do plan of putting a lip kit or body kit on.

I really wanna get the 19' look but I guess its gunna be me knowing there not volks. And I guess who really cares if there not the "best" rims right?

Racing Hart is still pretty good yea?

if you arent gonna lower then in all honesty, you will never be 100% happy with your setup. might as well get some rays 07 GT wheels.
