Takin' it way BACK! ;) Retro Volks.

The specs look like they will fit fine. I'd hook it up with a fresh powder coat.

Yeah these must be some old schools I cant find no info on them but neway fella purchased from jus emailed me back apparently they are the Evolution 3s and weigh in around 18lbs :rock: which is hella good, I was worried these wheels woulb be heavier than the stockies...

btw nice wheels! Weigh them yourself and let us know how much they weigh. I would not mind a set of these myself for the track and winter.

Well just a lil update wheels have been in shop now going on 3 weeks :mad: apparently they have been really backed up on work...I gave them a deadline though, they promised they will be starting on them this week...

Anyway they are getting refinished & powdercoated in a goldish almost bronze looking color

245/40 Kuhmo ecsta spt all round
