FS: Volk GT-7's w/ almost new tires. CHEAP!
This is the last big ticket item off my car. I am selling her soon so all my mods have gone bye bye. I'll be honest, these wheels aren't in the greatest of shape, however, they are easily fixed. Last summer I completely disassembled them and hand polished each wheel. In total I spent about 80 hours polishing these and they looked 200% better than factory. The only downside, there was no clear coat anymore so in the last year they have dulled quite a bit. I haven't really had the time to take care of them properly since I am away at school.
The rear tires are Continental Extremes A/S tires and have maybe 8,000 miles on them. The front tires were dismounted and used on my OEM wheels but I have a set High Performance Summer tires (KDW's I believe) for the front with only 6,000 miles on them!
Anyway...I am keeping this local since It will be a giant PITA to ship. I am only looking to get $1800 for everything! $1600 if you don't want the front tires. The tires alone are worth $800!
The lips are aluminum.
Offsets:
19x9.5 +30
19x10.5 +24
Please keep in mind, I have not made any attempt to clean these yet since they literally just came off the car a couple hours ago. I did however, wipe down and quickly polish (>2 minutes per wheel) a small section of each wheel so you can see how easy they are to polish up.
I will be in MD for the next week and a half taking my finals. These wheels will remain in South Jersey. Feel free to PM or comment with any questions/concerns.

This is how good the wheels can look if they get the TLC they deserve
This is the before. You can see the clear coat was starting to discolor.

Sanded down to bare aluminum

Looks like you did a great job on polishing them up! Question, when reinstalling the face of the wheel back to the barrel, did you torque the bolts down to a specific amount? (I'm looking to re-polish my GT-7s this winter). Bump for awesome wheels!
Thanks! I just wish I was able to keep them looking like that. If you are doing it yourself I highly suggest finding some sort of drill attachment or something to help polish otherwise your arms/hands will not like you very much! As far as torque specs, I asked around on various forums and even emailed Volk but neither could provide me with a definitive answer. Ultimately I just torqued everything down evenly until the bolts where nice and tight.
