Default Updated photos of Volks on a 951

Now that I finally got my suspension sorted, I took some new photos today to show what Volk TE-37s look like on a 951. The second pic and last pic are my favorites.

These are 18x8 and 18x10 and I'm running 235 on the front and 265 on the back. Next time I'll do 275.

I freakin love these rims, and with the suspension now set up correctly, the handling of the car is ridiculous.

I'm assuming you mean 18x8 front and 18x10 rear.

Otherwise, at 18x18, you got quitte a steamroller up front - may be a difficult to turn that puppy!!

RE the wheels - very nice - clean and classic look. Z-man approves!

Thanks, guys. I actually bought these off another member here. However, Group 5 Motorsports had the cheapest price I could find for new ones. http://group5motorsport.com/volk_rac...e/g-52762.aspx

Tirerack also has them in Grey.

However, to get them to fit a 944 hub properly, the small lip that the center cap attaches to needs to be removed from the front rims. Easy to do and it's unnoticeable when they are on the car. Without modifying them, they'll need a 1/2" spacer in front.

The red & bronze combination looks fantastic... Very nice wheels & from what I've read, very sturdy too.

Congrats!
