Hey Rays,

Do you provide wheel repair of any sort??? It's hard to find someone who can really do a good job on a wheels such as Volk.

Happy Monday!

The GTV will be nearing the end of its production cycle so you will have to order quickly -

If you have Evo 8-9 here's what we would recommend for "flush" fitment (please note depending on the tire you use you may need to roll fender)

17x9 +25
or
17x9 +32 for not as agressive but looks good

for 18inch

18x9 +30 would do well -

we also offer 18x9 +23 but that would be pretty agressive.

If you have Evo X

then we would recommend -

18x10 +23 for a good look or

19x10.5 +17 if you want to go crazy - fender rolling will be necessary or you can try 19x10.5 +30 which would sit a little inboard.

Thanks the info. Thats not cool that they are ending the line but I guess all good things much come to an end. If they end production before I can order them I might be able to them direct form Japan from a friend. Like a used set or something. I want a nice aggresive flush look without having to go wide body. I dont mind having to roll fenders. Ill roll them anyday to make some badass wheels fit. Again thanks for the info.

Your website is down sir.

Also, I don't even know the name of the rim, but they were white, and had the Rays Label on one of the 6 spokes. These rims were very popular for the honda crowd, and featured on Sony Playstaion Gran Turismo series. I have always liked this rim, and wondering what it's name is, if it is available in a 17x8/9 configuration(stock replacment for the 2004 EVO 8...), and possibly if I can get it in the flat black?

Thanks again for your help.

EDIT: Just found it. I believe they are the TE-37's.
