A friend of mine suggested this site for Volk wheels, www.import-store.com. They do have good prices.

In particular, the Volk GT-U is around $450/wheel for 18's. Not bad!

Neither of us have any experience with their service though.

They list bolt patterns and offset, which is nice instead of having to call.

I'm sure it's been covered before, but does anyone know the "sweet spot" for offset on the Evo? The stock wheels seem pretty flush...I'd like to keep the look the same. Any help or advice would be great Thanks!

 

i have the gtu on my evo now. they are 18x9 front and rear in a 29 offset. the is perfect and flush

 

link is not working.

 

Adrey,

Thanks for the offset! Post some pics of your car...the GT-U is so hot, I don't know why it isn't more popular?!

What tires did you go with?

 

Sorry about the link...try this http://www.import-store.com/volk_gtu.htm

You'll be at the GT-U page, but you can go back from there.

 

I would suggest that people visit and buy from this sites Registered Vendors whenever possible.

They pay to keep the lights on in this place. Plus you have the added security of knowing that all Vendors have registered their legal/tax business info with the Admin of this site. So if any site member has problems with a vendor, they aren't stuck out in the cold....like you would be if you dealt with a random company.

Very good point, nut these prices are very good. We will just have to see if one of our vendors can match it?

 

I don't mean to step on anyone's toes...especially if it means taking away funding for this site...it's hard enough to keep that "server is too busy" sign from popping up as it is!

Competition is good for the marketplace...esp. the consumer. I'm sure we all can agree to that.

 

i went ahaed and used the new yokohama avs s1-7 in a 235/40/18... great tire by the way.... also i will post up picks later on tonight..

 

To add to what SC said above. I am shopping for wheels right now and already received that price from one of our vendors who I know is on the ball with the customer service. Many of the quotes I have received are close to that.

 

here is a link to my website for a pic of the wheels and other pictures of the car.. enjoy ..http://f1.pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/metdfd/my_photos
