Hey guys I just got them today thanks for all the help. The wheels are legit. They're actually not as light as I expected but they are really light. Thanks again! I'm just angry I got the black stickers... I'd have preferred the blue ones T.T j/k

just another FYI, there are a lot of fake Volks made in Thailand all over the place, so be careful where you buy them from. Some of them even comes in real Volk boxes, and made to be exactly identical to the real deal. I knew a guy that worked at a car shop, and he says he seen them all the time before.

As I read this thread, two things come to mind. One is that it's great we have this community where people can help each other out to spot fakes. Two is that it's sad that we have to go to these lengths to be sure our wheels aren't knockoffs from some third world country with fake stamps/engravings/stickers on them.

Hey man that picture's so dark that if you hadn't said anything about the wheel gap I wouldn't have noticed. But since you mentioned it.....how about some better pictures so we can criticize ?

Also, for what it's worth, I've seen plenty of Z's on lowering springs or coilovers with no wheel gap and 18" wheels that looked awesome, so there's nothing wrong with 18" wheels in my opinion.

The wheel gap isn't so major. There's no way in hell I can lower this car I can't even make it over certain intersections in my town because of that damn from bumper. I might lower the back however. I did buy some teins from private classified a week ago...
