We carry TSW, VMR, Forgestar, Volk/Rays, Enkei, Work... And others. Feel free to PM me with any questions or if you need pricing. I can get you a set of VMR wheels for a great price.

thanks I will PM you with any questions, probably sooner rather than later

I was looking at the avant garde m310 as well but they are 28lbs which is too heavy for my liking. I think the vmr v710s are closer to 24 lbs but I'm not sure

I'm still trying to find the weight for the VMR, but it seems like they are about the same as the AG M310s. Not too sure though, maybe one of the vendors can give us a better idea on the weights?

Also, it seems like the AG M310s are a bit stronger than the VMRs because of the way they are made (low pressure cast for AG vs gravity cast for VMR).

with that amount I'm pretty sure you can find a set of used volks that are in good condition.
