**I posted this up on the G forum last week but I figure I post it here for you Z guys too**

OK, I got in a accident in my G and at the time I had a set of Volk SF Challenge in Gold on my car.
1 of the front wheel was bent due to the accident and at the time I just ordered new wheels instead of fixing it.

That was 3 years ago... last week I saw these wheels in my storage and figure I get the wheel fixed so I can sell them.
I thought about it and at the last minute decided to Phantom the lips at the same time....Gold SF challenge with Phantom Lips!

Got these put on yesterday but couldn't wait anymore to post some pictures.

Here are some pics...








The guys at the rim shop were

I like them.

I do have one hold back which is the color of the calipers vs. the gold on the wheels.

It actually looks good because the spokes are attached to that prominent outer rim.

Looks alirght on a black car.

You could try painting the raised square-ish things and the "volk racing" raised letters on the centers in black though. It would make pretty nice accents.

I think it looks alright.

IMO, it should be a little darker gold.

I like it a lot also. I really like the phantom lip design, but I also agree I think a color match to the brakes would make it even better.

Had loads of people say they didnt like them or wernt sure when I posted the pics, but most changed their mind when they saw them in the flesh and said they liked and the pics didnt do them justice!

Lovely job
