Best place to order Volk wheels online?
I would like to order a new set of Volk wheels online but I don't know who to trust and I would hate to pay more than they are worth.

I understand they take time to order and that requires a deposit.

Hopefully I can have them delivered by spring time.

Any suggestions would be great.

Curious did you check with our vendors? Call around and get quotes from vendors at other boards as well. Compare them with what our vendors can do and go from there.

I want a set of Volk GTS phantoms with formula silver centers.

I will contact Richie for sure. I bought a set of black Enkei rpf1's from him a while back.

I am thinking 19x9.5 for the rear and 19x8.5 for the front.

I am not sure about offsets. I really dont want to roll my fenders.

My last set of wheels were 18x9.5 with +45mm offset and they were prefectly flush. A friend of mine had the same size wheels but with a +35mm offset and I really did not like that they stuck out past the fenders.

Are you lowered? I have 18x9.5+33 in the rear and the rims don't stick out past the fenders, but I also have no fendergap.

Well thats why then. The lower the car is, the more aggressive of a wheel you will need to make it flush.

i would say 18x9.5+35 cause you dont wanna do alot of work, all you will need is a slight roll

I have the volk gt-s 19x8.5 +36 front with 19x9.5 +37 in the back and it looks pretty nice, I'm running 275's in the rear and I barely rubbed with my ohlins coilovers, but a little roll and now they work great.
