Forged Performance: GT30 Formula Silver Installed
 

Niko came over from Alabama for a header and wheel/tire install. I have been looking forward to installing these incredible Volk GT30's on his car for a couple weeks now.

VOLK GT-30 Formula Silver finish
20X9.5 +35
20X10.5 +10

We hit the nail on the head with these offsets and tire sizes.

We went Toyo T1R's all around, and a MASSIVE 305/25/20 rear tire, and 255/30/20 front. The car looks like the absolute devil and incredibly aggressive from the rear.

Thank you NIKO and Happy Birthday!!

Formula Silver is sick! I can't wait to get my FS wheels. BTW, what did you do with the tire pressure monitor when installing the new wheels?

the 305 fits perfectly on the 10.5 inch rears.... very nice


and those tails are nicely done, not overdone like mine




also, since there's a 1 inch difference in diameter from front to rear.... does it make a big difference??
the rear is 1inch smaller

I made a mistake which I just corrected. It's a 255/30/20 so the OD difference is nearly nothing. :)

now it's bang on :tup:

it's only a bit off stock specs...

Sharif, has that car in the pics been lowered? And, did you need longer wheel studs with those offsets?

I'm the lucky owner of this car. It's been lowered with the Eibach Pro Kit springs. I'm not certain how much it was lowered but the manufacturer indicates it lowers the vehicle .9" front & .8" rear.

What about the wheel studs?

lucky indeed. niceeeee car. 20's are definitely the way to go. great color choice too. who did the overlays on ur tails?

Sorry about that. Well, Sharif asked if I wanted to use the stock wheel studs or buy another set to match the wheels. I ended up buying the matte black finish from Volk. Therefore, I would assume you can use the same studs since he asked me if I wanted to keep the stock studs. I hope that helps.

I bought this car right here on the forums. The previous owner already had it completed somewhere in the Atlantic City, NJ area. Not sure exactly.

Congrats Niko. Your car looks awesome. I'm looking at the CE28's (if they're made in 20 inch). And now I know the wheel & tire sizes and offsets for the same look as yours. I PM'd Sharif and asked him about the CE28's.

I just love your look!!

They rims look good(and I'm not a GT-30 fan) but also incredibly huge IMO....offsets are spot on though

Thanks. I do too! :iagree:

Thanks for the comps! Sharif made a great recommendation and what the hell....it's my BDay present to myself!

Next is the TT from Forged for Christmas!!!
