Volk Racing GTS and Titanium Gray

Finally in today...new set of Volk Racing GTS. I fell in love with these wheels the moment I saw pictures of them from the Tokyo Auto Salon. 19x8.5 (f) et 46, 19x9.5 (r) et 43, in Matte Gunmetal. Sorry for the bad pics, will take better ones over the weekend.

Oh wow, I'm surprised to see them on eBay already. I haven't seen anyone else who's unsponsored with them yet. It's still early though!

Thanks Anthony, will not miss the next meet, promise. I'm actually meeting up with a buddy of mine with an S2000 this Saturday noonish, if you want to join up.

rubber: General Exclaim UHP
245/35 (f) 23lbs
275/30 (r) 25lbs

Excellent treadwear rating, and very quiet compared to stock.

Thanks for the compliments, guys.

The SF-Challenges are nice. A little more expensive, I believe. They were my first choice, until the GTS came out. It's hard to tell in pictures, but the matte finish is what drew me to them.

I was hoping noone would notice! I've been looking for the white ones (like in the above pics) but no one seems to carry them. I had to settle for the standard GT series cap, carbon fiber, gold lettering. They should be in soon. I can't get anything past you guys!
