Default Volks went up in price

I placed an order today for four 19" GTS-RMC finish, the price went up $200 per wheel vs one month ago. Does any one know if this is true ?


edit:$200 per wheel is for the price increase + RMC finish..........not just price increase. $4,450 total.

shouldn't have been that much...

as of July 1st, All Rays wheels went up by about 10%....so unless each wheel was $2000, it couldn't have gone up $200 each wheel......

per set, I would agree...

yes, plus the Micheline Pilot Sport PS2 tires, the total for the rims and tires was around $6,700.......I guess you got to pay to play when it comes to car modification.

Maybe you should stop being insanely stupid and cancel your order.

dude, 19" Micheline Pilot sport is not cheap if you know anything about tires.


I got one two months ago costing me $645. We have sale tax in California plus everything here is more exspensive then where you are at.
