19" Volk Racing GT-30's with KW's
Hello,
I know that there have been dozens (OK, hundreds) of posts pertaining to the Volk Racing GT-30 wheel on the G37. However, it seems that 99% of them are 20 inchers.

I decided to go with 19 inch wheels for several reasons:
1. weight
2. comfort (roads are @$$ where I live)
3. looks (I prefer the look of 19 inch rims)

These are the Formula Silver with polished lip. I think they turned out pretty well...
(see this link for further specs)

Looks good... I'm biased to 20s but we all have our preferences.

Very nice.

I wished the 19s were around when I got my 20" GT30s. Mine looked a tad too big and I prefer a little more tire.

shouldve gotten RE30s if you wanted 19s and light weight... basically the same style and just 17 lb rims...

still looks decent tho...

I ordered them back in April, didn't come in until 2 weeks ago!

Needless to say, the Blizzak's on my OEM 19's are looking worse for wear...

Wow, at first sight I can't tell the difference between the 19's and the 20's. Those with more experience I'm sure would disagree. Like Wes_888 asked, what is the weight difference between the 19's and 20's since this was obviously a deciding factor when choosing the 19's?

If I read correctly the difference was about $500 CDN between the 19's and 20's , what would that translate into dollars?

Nice choice, wheels and car look sweet!!!






Side note, TheCutter, sounds like a serial killer, freaky!!!
