You should've just sold your rims before and gotten a new set of volks.
Clean ride though, can't deny that!
I was thinking about that..but the cheapest I could find gold volks in 19" 9.5 fornt and 10.5 rear were $3600 with tires...and they were GT30's

Its been about 2 years and Iv been eyeballin sf challenges since the beginning. Buyin' them new woulda run me around $5k with tires...$850 a rim and avg $275 a tire plus a 2 to 3 month wait..forget that.

Dont think I didnt look for a good..2 months while the funds were accumulating.

Thanks for the comments though.

Before you do the polish definitely try the gold pinstripe around I think that will complete the look. I have to agree right now that it really takes away from the size and look of the wheel.

lol, sadly that pic in my sig is photoshopped..did it about a year ago. Put the rims, jdm tails, and the spoiler I wanted on the car just to see how it looked. The original picture is of a stock Z.

No pinstripe - I think if you do the inner lip of ur wheel in silver that wld fix the issue.

That's clean, I always liked Volk Challenges...the original ones. But yeah, your car is tastefully done.

Would it be radical to have the lip the same colour as the spokes??
