Default Volk CE28N Size?

Hi everyone,

i am planning on getting a set of Volk CE28N in Bronze for my 02 GPW and was wondering what size 17" or 18"? width? and offset? also what size tires for the front and rear?

Thanks for the help everyone!

17x7.5 in the front +50 offset
17x9 in the rear +63 offset

This seems to be the setup most people run You can also run lower offset in the front for BBK clearance. This is probably the best fitting wheel for the S, IMHO.

With this offset, the wheels do not stick out from the wheel well? I too am interested, but fear I will have a rubbing issue.

they will stick out and/ rub if you jam some oversized tires on them or lower your car to the ground... but otherwise you are fine.

www.yellowstreakracing.com has them on his S2000 and has no problems.

I have 16" CE28N's on my race car with no problems...but mine are completely different widths and offsets.

they are 16*7 and 16*8 and i think both are 46mm offsets.

they would have rubbed alittle in the rear with my hoosiers (pretty fat for 245's) if I hadn't rolled the fenders a little.... but my car is also lowered.
