New Volk Racing Wheel

You might've seen some pics of what looks like a Volk Forged Mag Spoke at Tokyo Auto Salon. Volk is producing a less expensive version of the Forged Mag Spoke called the Progressiv Spoke. Instead of two-piece forged with a magnesium center, the PS is a one-piece forged wheel. Should have a weight similar to TE37. Looks like it'll be released in April, first in 19", with 18" hopefully to follow. Evo-friendly offsets available. Here's a pic on a Top Secret G35c.

Sweet. I'll bet they'll look good on the Evo.

They remind me of the stock wheels on the AMG C32.

Nice looking rims, but I hope they make different colors.

I don't kow if I like them or not. Gold with polished lip is the way to go. Well for bby and tarmac it is. Gunmetal is way to popular now.

IMHO, wearing gold and silver at the same time went out of style with Mr T's necklaces and the A-Team back in 1985.

I think it's time to bring it back into style.

They also come in silver and you can get them custom-painted. I thought the Top Secret G35c would show off the design very well. In my opinion, gunmetal is getting a little over-exposed. I'll keep everyone posted on availability and colors.

Those rims look as if they were taken off a Mercedes Benz E55 AMG and painted gold. They don't seem original enough to me.
