My baby with new shoes! VOLKs!
Ok here are just a few crappy camera phone pics I took of my baby with the new volks. I will be taking some good pictures with the digital camera tomorrow. I really liked my car before but now I am in love with her and I cant stop looking at her!(the gf is getting jealous)






Just for info: The wheels are volk GT-M's 19x8.5 . The suspension is H&R sports with Tokico blues.

yea tires are 235/35/19....

also forgot to mention, Im selling my base wheels wrapped in new (less than 1500k) yokohama avs es-100 tires 245/45/17. The rims are in good shape with some minor curb rash here and there but the tires are freshly mounted and balanced!

wheels look great. word of advice, KEEP YOUR STOCKS. the amount you get for them will NOT make up for how useful they will be. they make perfect spares, and if you ever need to sell the car, youre gonna need to rebuy the stocks anyway.

This this this.

I had a second set of wheels as spares, and like said, they were great when I sold the car. Also, if you ever want to go on a long road trip, or for some odd reason you get a winter in Texas you had something you wont mind getting dirty.

I see what ur saying about the stocks but I figure I can always pick up a cheap set with some half decent tires to sell with the car cuz the tires on them righ now are brand new and it seems like a waste cuz they are nice tires. Then again it depends on how much I can get for them... anyways, here are some more pics!









Next step is to repaint the brembos and do something with the exhaust! Im thinkin i might just do the stage 3 and polish and extend the stock tips since I think this car needs to have squared tips to go with every other body line on the car. If anyone has found some tips similar to the stocks that look nice please share...

Check out the black market. There was a guy that listed a WTB thread looking for 5 star base rims. Maybe you can sell to him.

Chrome on silver is not that bad. It's a nice contrast. Do you want the car to be chrome too? Now, chrome on bright red is weird.


OP, nice ride dude. Love the drop, and great representation for Houston!
