    Yeah these are hot as hell just like the wheels. NITTO INVOs $728 all 4 tires. Thats how much I paid for the tires I have now.

    my friend bought some similar NITTO TIRES for 225.00 each for his 2004 bwm m3 with 19'' rims!

    PRICE 2739=4 WHEELS

    Input on that would be appreciated and also what tire would look good wrapped around those. This is what they look like installed on a legnum.

    those are NOT VOLK RACING GT-V's, they look like they are WORK EMOTION CR KAI:



    VOLK RACING GT-V's are forged, multi piece wheels. here they are:



    also i suggest 19x8 +40mm mid type (remember i'm running 19x8.5 +48mm mid type VR SF-Winning). if you wanna run the evo8 brembos ur gonna need 19x8 +30mm high type (CALI has that fitament for VR SF-Challenge and evo8 brembo).

    Wouldn't 19x8 with +30mm offset stick way out??

    itll stick out but since youre pretty dumped, it might look pretty alright. getting the jdm fender flares will clear that up though if youre not feeling it. low offset + big camber = SICK!

    If these are 19x8 with +30mm offset, then yeah. I like that stance. I just don't want my wheels sticking out like those low riders..lol

    Well yes I do have brembos that I will install later and I will need high offset. Thank you for pointing that out Reelax. I found this chart for the wheels I want, thats what you said I need right? I circled it. I'll stick with Volk anyway

    Man Raz if you got the cash I would finish up the 8gs' body first then do the rims as a finishing touch if you still wanted to change them out. just my two cents

    Great wheels, I'd say go for it.

    Btw, I have 19s on my daily driver.

    You'd do good to measure your actual clearance from wheel lip to rear knuckle. I can safely tell you right now I wouldn't be able to fit a 19x8" wheel with a +49mm offset on my 02 GTZ. Especially when you consider a 235/35-19 is the proper tire size to use with that width wheel.

    Test fitting and measuring is your friend.

    as long as the tire doesnt stick out as much as the wheel your fine.
    this is where stretching comes in to play

    Make me an offer I cant refuse on my wheels and tires and they are yours.

    The tires only have about 30 miles on them max, still has the little hairs sticking up, if that and same for the wheels.

    Tires are Falken FK452 225/35/19
    Wheels are ADR 19x7.5 with +42 offset. If I get a good offer, I will sell them now!

    30 offset may be pushing it a bit, i have 19x8.5 w/ a 38 offset mated to 235 35 19 tires and it is only inside the jdm flares by a few mm...i would hate to see you spend that much money on wheels and then have to resell them or exchange them if you plan on doing the brembo conversion specifically i suggest you check out what wheels the evo guys are running and the closest to stock possible on a specific wheel you choose

    these are extremely nic wheels though and would look great on the g
