Default 18" Gunmetal GTU's

I received my new wheels today from Evolution Autosports here in Northern VA. I would like to thank Jeff, Steve, and all the mechanics over there who have helped me out over the past month and a half. The new wheels are great.

Here is the link to the thread that explains how my old O.Z.'s were bent.

The old wheels.



The new Volk Gunmetal GTU's. I have already removed the red stripe around the wheels (reduce weight ).

Looks awesome dude.

Evolution Autosport is definitely highly recommended. Anything you need, just give Jeff a call.

Looks good, just wish we can fit lower offsets rim so the lips can show!


But definately an improvement over the old rims!

The O.Z.'s were lighter than the GTU's. The tire sizes are the same as the Superleggeras Front 225/18/40 Rear 255/18/35.

Hell no, I can't drop that. If you look at the first picture with the GTU's you can see where the straight pipe bolts to the exhaust (look under the front of the door on either side of the hinge). The downpipe from the turbo is lower than the factory exhaust sits. I would be afraid of damaging the pipping under the car if I lowered it. I was lucky the exhaust wasn't damaged when I bent the O.Z.'s.

Thanks for the compliments.
