They're pretty. It'd be tight if you had Ti exhaust tips to go along with them.

If you like 'em, get 'em. Too many people are addicted to Volks for whatever reason. It always seems if they aren't Volks, then they aren't wheels. Get what you like. (Unless they're spinners, then we respectfully ask you to sell your car and never drive again!)

There were pics of them on a Z somewhere and everyone flamed on them. Of course, 90% of the forum will call a wheel cheap quality if it isn't made by Volk. If you like them, get them.

There is a Supra in...Modified Mag I think? this month with those wheels. They look...ok to me. Kinda gimmicky, but as someone else said if you like them, then get them! I would definitely get them over the MBs.

What's very funny is most here swears by VOLKS OR NOTHING, but at the same time there are SOOO MANY LOW-BALLERS on FS threads LOL
It's unbelievable how many cheap asses are here on this forum sigh

Low-ballers DIE!

Konig after burgers are gay as f*ck. What the f*ck does volk have to do with this thread? Buy the real deal gram lights with ti finish, all other wannabe rims look like aszhole.

Nice wheels! Personally, I could care less what the "brand" is. As long as they fit right, look good (to the owner), and don't disintegrate when driving over potholes!

Oh, and light weight is a plus, too!

I'm not anti-Volk at all. I just think most are so pro-Volk it's kinda nuts.

Go for it... but you'll need some spacers for them to sit flush.
