There's no need to even see a photoshop for these rims...they'll look tight without a doubt.

I've seen these on a widebody NSX and they're pretty sweet lookin. The spokes are real thin so any cross drilled/slotted rotors can be seen easily.

No one has posted pics of these on a TL yet.

Those are the Volks I'd get as well, I've lusted after them for a while now. 19" x 8.5. With Brembo's you'd probably need a 43-45 offset, making your lip kinda small though.

Must... resist... urge... to... spend... $3K... on... wheels...

Well it takes about 2-3 months for delivery of rims, if the wheel is not available.

Hopefully he did buy them & for now we play the waiting game.

I have been thinking about getting a set of the GTS's as well and was wondering if he has gotten them yet and what size and specifications he got. Also where he ordered them from.

Any feedback would be greatly appreciated cause i'm looking to order them before the end of the week since no-one seems to have any in the US and it will take 2-3 months to get them.

Let me know if you go through with the decision. I'm frequently in Raleigh throughout the year and would enjoy seeing another TL on volks in person.

Visit Phantasm Motorsport and talk to Nam, tell him Eric with the TL sent you.

Eric,
How's your S/C TL running? You've put alot of miles on it and had one of the cats replaced last month correct? Update me on the status... mine hit 11k miles since the charger was installed. No problems so far ::knock on wood:: then again, I barely abuse my car....car almost never go into boost during the week.

When it rains, it pours!...

First dilemna...OEM cats detiorated in Sept.
Second............Optima 51R battery died! late Oct.
Third................CEL for a small leak in the system...not sure where it is, but it wont pass emmissions which resulted in an overdue inspection fee of $250.

I don't go into boost that often now that all these issues are being surfaced.

I'm glad you don't abuse your TL...i feel bad for being slightly abusive to mine...poor nelly bell. She'll be allright though.

If Mackin Industries, Volk Racing's importer, has to order it from the factory, it usually takes 90 days or a little longer.

It took mine 14 weeks to receive the wheels.

I looked at a lot of different places and noone had them in the US they all had to special order them from Japan. So I just went with the cheapest place and they said it would be at the most 90 days
