Need help deciding which color Volks

They +12 but running 10 mm spacer in the rear so +2. Fronts are 245/40/19 rears are 275/35/19.

I would have thought the ultras were lighter. Go figure.

i dont think the 1-inch/1-lb rule that Honda's and other smaller cars use will apply when dealing with RWD widths

and if u care about weight, get the "track" version which shaves a bit more weight (but only come in diamond dark gunmetal)

or if u "really" need the weight savings (you don't, you're not a racecar driver), get some CE28n's

obsession over wheel weight on a street car is hilarious to me

Now I'm on the fence between the Bronze color and this cool looking Flat Black. Cant seem to decide which one to with it. I love the classic look of the bronze but it seems that everyone with a Magma Red Z have them. I also love the look of this Flat Black but will take about 3 months to receive. Decisions, decisions

Probably because it looks right with magma red.

Yes, I'm not arguing that. Bronze does look great with the Magma Red that's why I'm torn between these two color options.

I REALLY dig the matte bronze TE37's on Magma. Does the finish have a life expectancy for being in vogue? Sure, but powder coat is cheap whenever that time comes.

I have flat black. Took 5 months for me (special order color not stocked)

Sadly in the 19 inch Ultra, it's a regular color and stocked by Mackin

Look at my build thread for pix how it looks on white

I actually think Bronze is a better complement on a red car. Gold is even better - if you're going to wait on a special color, might as well get gold

Your Nismo looks great. And definitively black is the way to go on a white car. Those Ultras compliment your ride really well

Volk Bronze is an anodized finish. Good luck finding that in a powdercoat lol.

Well... after much debate between two color choices, I finally made my decision and pulled the trigger on the OG Bronze Volks advertised on the Kamispeed group buy. Big thanks to Saku at Kamispeed and thanks to those of you that suggested these as well.

Next stop.... Tireville! Pole S-04, RE-11 or Michellin PSS ?
