suggestions on which volks to get? get in here!!

hey all...im looking to get new wheels soon. im going to go with volks but i have several models in mind. im thinking of the gt-c, gt-7, or sf winnings. i will be getting them in 18s in black with polished lip, ps the car is tarmac black

what models do u guys suggest? post pix if possible...other suggestions of models are welcomed too

and also i have few questions about rubbing issues...what should i go with? 18 x 8.5 or 18 x 9? what offset? ive seen offsets from 30-35. and what series tires should i go with? ive been searching and got mixed answers so i donno
im dropped on tanabe sustec s-s coilovers with 1 tight finger gap all around (u can barely stick your finger in the gap). it doesnt rub on stock wheels, and what to keep it that way

what about the CE28's? or the SF challenges? those are my personal favorites though


i think the gt-7's would look the best

I have always been a fan of GTU's, getting wheels that are similar but by a different brand. You won't see many GTU's on EVO's.

if you're leaning towards black go with the LE28N, they have a polished lip and look hot

I love my 28's in charcoal metallic (called Gunmetal I believe?) with polished lip. My car is silver but I think this color would add a nice subtile contrast to your Tarmac Even in black, I still recommend the 28's
