#26
This is what I'm looking for, please PM a price. I'd also like a couple options for tires, 245 in the front and 255-275 in the rear, whatever is closest to the front in size. What is the lead time on these? Thanks.
Volk SF-Challange 19 8.5 42 and 19 9.5 40.

2010 Prius - Miss the 8
FYI....Since some of you have PMed me, here's some basic info for the SF Challenge....
19 8.5 +42 245 Front, 19 9.5 +40 275 Rear for staggered settings. That's what I have on mine, no rubbing, no rolling. If you want a deeper dish look, I'm not sure what the offset would have to be, and possible spacer issues.
For those that are newbies to the pricing of Volks, expect a pretty big price difference between 18 -19 inch wheels.. and also the staggered setting will change the pricing. Prices will range from $2900 to 3600+ depending on size + type of Tires with the package + Wheel color if it's special ordered. Wait time for special orders 'can' take upwards of 2-3 months.
Also remember that there are Ray's lug nuts, about $115-125 bucks... Colors comes in Black, Red, and Blue (my personal choice).
Stick with either PS2s, or S03s for Tires... might as well go for the big guns for tires if you're planning to spend this much on your wheels,... so I went with S03s. Cheaper but pretty good tires are the T1s, BFG, and Falkens.... not too fond of Nitto's, Kumho, Goodyear, etc.
==================================================
Negatives of Owning these wheels....
* Pretty expensive, but worth the money... Forged Baby.
* Cannot use with TPMS
* Can scratch easily, so avoid rough cloth/brushes... a Big no no.
Positives of Owning these wheels...
* Bling Factor. It's a Japanese Car, Stick with Japanese Rims.
* Performance... can't beat Forged light weight wheels
* Mega Positive ... When that cocky kid races up you in one of his older model Civic all riced out, You can pull to the next stop light next to his car, point to your wheels and he'll get the message... he'll wet in his pants and think.. "Goddamn, that guy has Volks, and those are the SF Challenge, they are worth more than my entire car, including my park bench carbon fiber wing I bought at Auto Zone"
==================================================
In conclusion, Wheelautohaus seems like they know their customer service.. shows pix, answers PMs, can't beat that...

yea, and the result was very disappointed....................
you really can't blame the shop cuz they don't know anything about these wheels they just read from the paper i wrote to them and it clearly states "bridgestone protenza s-03" , i believe he knows nothing about those toyo t1s, and we DID confirm on the price which was the S03 price and not the T1s, i was so prepare for it, i even give you a call the next day and you said "yes the S03s" i remembered very clearly. because the only 2 questions i asked was is the offset correct? and is the tires correct, and you said yes to both..........
it really doesn't matter that much now cuz i don't have any extra money to ship it back and i don't want to wait.
now i hope the other 2 arrived safe, and i hope i'll see the nug lugs along with the wheels.
and i hope it'll never happen to anyone else.

I am sorry rx8spiritR. The way the deal went down. You had your body shop order the wheels. When the body shop placed the order they ordered Toyo t1s tire's. I charged you for the Toyo t1s tire's. You were not on the phone when they placed the order. Since the body shop ordered the wheel's I went by what they requested. I am sorry about what happenened. There must have been a miscommunication with you and your body shop.
Thanks
