Bruinbro,

Volks are a great idea - light and sort of cheap. Thanks for the link. You rock!

My pleasure. Just remember that lead times can be as long as 9 months. The factory doesn't stamp them out until there is enough orders. That being said, keep prowling the boards and flea-bay and you might get lucky.

I concur. I would have preferred 18s with a smaller wheel arch.
