Small detail... but why are your slotted rotors "direction" different. Are the internal vanes on the powerslots directional?

Thanks! That was the same exact question the tech asked me, and I told him whatever works. The internal vanes are not directional. [shrugs]

Time attack Volk Te37

19x9.5 +22
19x10.5 +22 w/ kic racing 10mm spacer.

OEM tires were swapped over.

Needs a drop bad, waiting for swift springs to come in.

Love the look, congrats!!

Tsolin is correct, I added a 10mm and a 2.5mm spacer making the offset even lower. But I have the exact offsets as u Steve. +17 up front +18 in the rear. But adding the 12.5mm in spacers makes it +17 front +5.5. With 9.5 and 10.5 widths and 255/40 and 305/35 tires... Check out the pics below. Pm me and I'll send u a pic with no spacer installed in the rear and you'll clearly see the difference. The 2.5 just further pushed out the rear but the 10mm h&r looked great too. My color wheel is custom since I had them refinished. It's a local places gunmetal.

Excuse the grossness of the lip but I had just got the sport brakes put on and snapped this pic with grungy lips haha

^^rear wheels flush nicely with the fenders. Good job

tsolin01 · 04-28-2011, 08:07 AM

It's looking pretty awesome

That gunmetal color is nice, I wish the Ti Gunmetal ones were a bit darker like those.

ryann.mendoza · 05-06-2011, 10:41 AM

awesome wheels fellas!

Hey guys..need some opinions. I am thinking about getting the Volk GT-C's. My 370 is red and lowered on Sprint springs. Any thoughts regarding this setup? Recommendations? Btw they are 20x9.5f 20x10.5r

Hey Soprano,

I have a red Z as well and I just received my Volk GT-S in the mail yesterday. The finish is Mercury Silver. I am lowered on Swift springs. Keep an eye out for pics with wheels on the car. I will post up as soon as I can. Even though you are thinking of going with the GT-C's this will give you an idea of what it looks like.

I will upload new pics when tires get mounted/balanced. Went with red lugz too.

I think you should buy my 20inch Volk GT-30's.

sstevens7 · 05-19-2011, 05:58 PM

Volk GT-S 19x19.5/10.5.

Tires Cont DW 285/35/19 and 245/45/19. I am going to re-order the fronts in 245/(35 or 40)/19. I have little to no room in the front with the swift spring drop. That little plastic bump inside the fender of that bolt was getting hit everytime I hit the smallest bump. I have since shaved down that bump within the fender and it's not near as bad now but still hits from time to time. Especially at higher speeds.

Over all I am very happy with the look. I have a 10mm spacer for the rear coming to me in the mail right now. I think once I have the spacer installed on the rear and the smalled tires on the front I will be G2G.

I think I also need to have them check the balancing of the tires because I feel some shutter in the car that wasnt there before with the stock sport tires/wheels. Maybe the tires just need some break in time for the shuttering to go away????? Comments/suggestions here please......

Thanks,

Shane

Juruki · 05-19-2011, 06:58 PM

^^ wrong tire sizes. Most people get 35/30 sidewalls, 40/35 if you want a little more tire to fill the gap
looks very nice thou
