These are made in china so there goes your quality. I agree they do look good but if you shine up a dog turd, it's still a dog turd. Hopefully they won't have any kind of catastrophic failure. Good luck.

IF anything is going to happen to these wheel itll be due to a pothole or racing/drifting. They are 20's so im assuming the owner knows better than that. Bump for blowing peoples minds with whats to come of this car.

Curious what 305's would look like that low... it wouldn't clear with the spacers would it?

I'm on a 11" +25 with a 305/30 and I am worried about lowering without running a lot of camber.

Now I understand what you're saying, I'll take your comment with a grain of salt because clearly you're one of the those people that has to find a problem with everything you don't have. They are made of the same materials and use almost identical if not identical processes that were used to make my Volk GT-7's, difference being these are 3 piece and are somehow lighter. I've had these inspected and I was complimented on the quality of the wheel. I feel bad for you, hopefully you just had a bad day and aren't like this all of the time. I don't need your luck brotha.

Not sure why you would say these are made using almost or identical process as Volks.. I have owned many Volks and took a chance with f/s wheels .. They are made at the same factory in china that sevas wheels were made . Same junk wheels .. Sorry op but these are over priced trash ..

The OP likes his wheels, I like his wheels, and many others here like his wheels. So please let him enjoy them and stop calling them trash. They may not be the best, they may not be made to Volk/Work standards but it could be worse... at least they didn't come from the American Racing display at Sears.

The one thing about this forum is people spending other peoples money. If you don't like something just give constructive criticism on how to improve... but calling something "trash" that someone worked hard for isn't right. I mean hell... I don't like iPhone's, Microsoft, Samsung and Emerson but I don't go around to people in Walmart buying such items and telling them it's trash and I bet you wouldn't either.

OP wanted opinions about the wheel stance... Not opinions on the wheels themselves. Stay on point so this thread doesn't get locked because of people bickering back and forth.

Ouch, you hurt my feelings... Oh wait, no you didn't.
If I have an issue I'll be sure to let you know, but the main reason I got away from Volk is because everyone has them and I get tired of people like you hanging from their sac. These aren't Volk, work, ssr, etc. but that's part of the reason I wanted a new brand. Please get back on topic and quit telling me about the brand I have. I'm more than capable to make my own opinions on the quality, which right now is outstanding.
