First let me start out by saying that I dont care about wheel brands, I am not a Volk ***** or any other brand. I just care about what looks best on my Z. Below is a pic of my Z with the wheels that are on it now will be sold this winter. I have a chance to get a set of used Volks that are in very good shape for a good deal. Or I can get a set of Five AD wheels new. Both are 19x9.5/10.5. The Volks come with tires with good tread left on them, the Five AD wheels would need new tires. I am looking at about the same price for the used Volks with used tires as the Five AD wheels with new tires. If I get the Volks I would get the center powdercoated gloss black. What do you think would look the best on my Z?? Thanks
Unless you are getting a hell of a deal on the Volks I would pass. If you like the Five's that's cool, they would look okay. There are also some better fitting options in that same price range though as well.

What would be a hell of a deal? It would be my wheels, tires and spacers (20mm) that are on my Z now (so he could use them as track wheels) plus cash. I dont know how much cash though, we havnt really set a number yet. I would be looking at $1000 for my wheels, tires and spacers to go into the deal. how much cash do you think I should offer? If I decide to go with the Volks. It looks like the Volks are about 4 years old.

I guess the cash would make or brake the deal... I'm assuming they're Z offsets which is good so you dont need a set of spacers. I'm going to agree with Ruthless by far the best economical wheels you can get are RPF1's. I picked up my set brand new for less than 1500.00 shipped to my house.

Yup, The Volks have the Z offsets. They are on a Z now so no spacers needed. I dont need spacers for the Five AD wheels ether. I really like a five (kinda five) spoke wheel. The RPF1's are a 6 (kinda 6) spoke wkeel. I guess the wheels I am looking for are a "split 5" spoke wheel. I need a dark face on the wheels due to me going for a black and silver Z.
OP: Personally I'd take the Volks. Obviously it's the style you're shooting for but the color would compliment your Z the best; I feel. Everything about the Volks I like better than...
