Hello all,

been thinking about changing my stock rims to aftermarket ones. I have narrowed it down to 2 choices...
1. Volk Racing CE28N
2. Volk Racing GT-C

i took the following pictures today..what do you guys think?? The bronze wheel in the pics are actually WRX STI rims...but they are kinda similar to the CE28's..

The sizes I am getting are 18x8 and 18x9 (f/r).

Volk CE28N:

17" CE28 lookalikes on my black IS.

 

Volk GT-C:

Volk GT-C on my IS.

 

Volk GT-C looks nice.

 

what the hell wheels do you have on there now? eek and gad

 

At first I thought I would like the CE28N better just from the pics...but seeing them on your car the GT-C just look so good I voted for them instead

 

those are the oem wheels for europe

 

Thank God I live in America, those(oem wheels) are ugly as sin

 

lol...dont hold back guys!! hahaha

nah..its all good...i am not too keen on them either. Hence my wish to get them changed! I saw 'gilly' (sp?) and his volk progressive ME's...and they looked v sweet as well. I was quite convinced about the CE28's until i put the bronze STI's against the car...now i am not so sure...

 

haha dats funny.. i didnt know diff country gets diff rims..

 

Neither, if I had the choice; however, V-GT C. Why not get them, whichever ones, in 19's? You must be trying to shave some weight, right?

 

I am trying to avoid rims that are too bling...and heavy. The main reason for the 18's is that I would like some ride comfort. If I was to go for 19's, I would get decreased ride quality and increase the unsprung weight.

While everyone has different tastes, what rims would you guys suggest?

 

I second the whole neither thing. If you can, get some volk progressive ME's. They look really good on our cars.

 

I'm not feeling either one of those rims either. I'll agree with the others that the ME's do look good in a 2IS.
