Very nice photography too.
Those wheels are going to look great. Not as common as some of the other Volk models.

I think you have set the record, for longest duration of new wheel ownership before mounting them on a car.

LOL, don't remind me! If they had taken 6 months instead of 2.5 to arrive it would've been mid winter, not right at the end of summer, but oh well. I got 'em and they've been safe since September.

Sorry I haven't kept this thread up to date. My car is currently in the body shop getting the front and rear bumpers redone after some winter damage. I have tires on order right now and am currently waiting for a replacement front lip spoiler to arrive. Scheduled to have everything done and the wheels/tires on the car May 12th, right before ZDayZ. Will update with final pics then.

I like the look of those ME's. Have you weighed one? I'm curious to know how heavy. Thanks

Mounted and installed on Monday, had the car detailed yesterday in preparation for my trip to ZDayZ. Great to see they got water spots and tire shine all over the wheels.

Those look very nice on your car. Your pics have me looking for some on a Z. I've found a few pics on a yellow Z, but I'm curious what size and offset your front wheels are? What size tires did you mount front and rear to line up so well with the fenders? They really look clean.

Thanks,

Will

+1 I’m curious as well about the specifications. Looking at the first post it looks as though the rear wheels are 19/10.5” w/22 offset. I’m wondering about the front wheels and the size of front and rear tires.

…Very nice looking setup.

I'm tempted to have them redone in black chrome over the winter.
