I'm looking for a set of Volk Racing SF Challenge Rims, preferably in 19x9.5 with a 28mm offset, color doesn't matter.

Sizes aren't set in stone though...

I've looked high and low and everyone is sold out.
These rims were discontinued a little while ago so its been a journey to find them and have had no luck so i'm turning here for help.
(Yes i know websites are still showing them "In stock" but if you call them and ask they tell you a different story) "Sold out" "discontinued" "sold last set 2 weeks ago" etc....

I was willing to pay Retaill for them, so if you can find them/ have them brand spanking new i'd be willing to pay retail/alittle over

I don't want curb rash and such, but if yours are used and have very minimal rash i'd still pay a hefty amount for them.

If you know a site or vendor that still has a set in stock please let me know! I would be ever so grateful!!

I have a set of Ro_ja R2-5's which is basically the same rim, also made by rays. They are 19x8.5 and fit excellent on the rx-8. Tires are Toyo proxes t1r. Two are almost brand new and the other two will have to be replaced. Rims are in excellent condition with a extremely small amount of curb rash. I wasnt really looking to sell them but for the right price I would be willing to let them go. Let me know if your interested.

@highspeed Yeah i called them and now 16 other places and their all either sold out or not carrying them anymore and just haven't updated their websites.

@gtballa sorry but im just not into that style or size, im looking for a deeper barrel and more aggressive look, the rims look nice but im just not feeling them lol. thanks so much though.

if i can't find any challenge rims, i might just go with the winning ones...
i found one set of challenge rims on ebay but their used for 5k....ridiculous.

No problem. I was in the same situation a while ago, missed a chance to buy some rims I wanted and nobody had them in stock anymore. About a year later I found them and had to buy them immediately.
