17172, Need some opinion about VOLK GT-7 Rims
Posted by UFO, Apr-22-03 09:53 AM


What do you think about this rim (Gunmetal)? I'm thinking to change my wheels.
Right now I have 5Zigen Inperio S-08 rims in silver.
I'ld like to know the perfect width (8 or 8.5) and offset that can fit well.
It will be 18" wheels.

Thank you for your opinion.

yeah 8 inches wide is the most you can safely do. the only way to get a wider wheel on there would be to get a wheel with a higher offset. this prevents the tire from rubbing too badly but will cause wheel bearings to go out prematurely.

Well.....Thank you.
I've no idea about the weight for this GT-7. :wary
I think I'll go down to 18"x7.5 for safe. I don't need any rub.
