Those volks look like a pretty descent set.. I wouldn't mind riding on those for a bit....
Just gotta wait and see if the other dude falls through or not..

I need a 10mm spacer for the rear I think to make it flush
Call me retarded...but they look just like TE-37s from a distance. Works for me.

I'm not a baller so I cant afford works or volks, so these work fine for me. I ordered 5mm spacers for the rear so I'll have some pics with the rear wheels sitting a bit more flush in about a week or so.

They were rubbing on the back so I rolled the fenders using a baseball bat. Got getter but will roll more soon.

I sell wheels for a living and have had the pleasure of selling many sets of these wheels, great product.

And they should clear the TT brakes

but yeah the pic above is running really high profile bulky tires, so it makes the wheel seem bulkier as a whole. they also look like 17's, i may be wrong though. the red sc with the 19's posted before gives a better idea if you're wanting a low-pro, but he has a pretty good stretch on his, in the rear at least.
nope they're 18x8.5F 18X9.5R runnning 245/45/18 and 275/40/18 tires lol. These help protect sides in case I run into a curb and give comfortable ride like stock. Maybe I'll try low profile for my next set but still have too much life left on it or maybe I won't.
