They're the GT-P in bronze. It didn't cost too much...22 hundred with tires.

They're 18s. IT looks smaller because of the lip and because it's two pieces, so the spokes doesn't go all the way out...cause of the bolts.

Who cares about what everyone else says! Personally I think they look tyte. Your Hyper Medallion looks good on the car. Where did you get it done at? Is it a universal? I've been waiting to see if anyone had a champaign cL that they were fixing up. Looks Good!

yea, but they probally aren't bronze


I've never seen bronze here only in japan, great looking wheels. YOU BETTER BUY LOCKS FOR ALL 4 LUGS!! I'm serious those things will be gone before you know it. My buddy had volk make a special set of te37's in black, he had wheel locks and all they were gone in a week.

ghander you are right, they could be the same GT-P but not in Bronze. They were special ordered. You do know your stuff... I do have locks for them, thanks for watching out....

Mike's muffler good shit, Mike and his Son have been doing work for me for years, he's gotten really busy lately though. What did he charge you. He's one of the best quality mandrel benders out in the area. I tried to have him do my CL but he was way to busy when i needed it done, but he's done other cars of mine before.


and honestly, make sure you get 4 locks for EACH wheel, it's easy to remove one or two, but most people will see 4 and say fuck it. It's honestly a must, esp. out here in so cal

Beautiful wheels, car looks great with the bronze. The Volk GT-P's are definitely one of the hottest wheels out right now I think. Have only seen another set of GT-Ps, in silver, on a silver NSX.
