Default Volk rims

Has anyone fit volk rims on a SC?
I'm thinking of SE37A's in gold.

Any sugestions?

Reason i'm going for volk is cuz they are VERY light. I might do a few AutoX's and maybe run a few track events on it .

Howie, what size do you have in the GTN? Do you have a side view of your car?

i think bronze looks awesome on a green car. my friend got a set of bronze ce28n's on his green integra. looks clean...but you won't get any bling bling points

I don't think bronze looks nice on any color car. Bronze is dated in my opinion. When in doubt, resort to chrome

Nice picts guys...

Sorry, but CHROME is SUPER PLAYED OUT...every ghetto *** **** put chrome anything on their beaten, salvaged cars. Bronze is tight! As is Graphite.

HOWEVER, I think on Luxury Cars, you need SOME sort of accent. So some wheels with a high polished or brushed lip with some bronze or graphite centers would look nice on any color car IMO...

Volk makes a special edition CE28N's with a Gun Metal center and a diamond polished lip...I LOVE, LOVE the CE28N's but I need to have them in 19" or even 20"...18" is just too small FOR ME. I would do 18" wheels on a smaller car like a G20 or RSX...

I would do a solid bronze if I had a "sports car" like an Supra or RX-7....love that JDM race thing....

Have you guys seen the new Volk GT-U and GT-7? SWEET! When I spoke to the guys at Rays (at SEMA), they said they were going to release like 8 new wheels in 2003...can't wait! Hopefully, they're going to offer more 19" wheels...maybe some 20's...

Well, i'm thinking 18" for mine.

Does anyone know the offset, bolt pattern, width for the CE28n's? I think imma going on gunmetal or bronze.
