Poowill's Winter Pics New Volks! (56k, go grab a snack)
Here are the 18" Volk Racing GT-N's i just bought. I couldn't wait till spring to put them on, so in the meantime of swapping wheels out, it starts to snow! But i was careful and got some pics before i swap them back out this weekend. I'll have some new pics up in the springtime (The car is really dirty in these pics). Let me know what you think and what my next mod should be (i'm thinking lip kit).
The Camera is a Nikon D70, i'm still learning. Won't be as good as Whazzzup's pictures! I wish though...a
Daylight pictures on page 2!

A33 was a jerk and didn't just *give* me his bbk when he shipped the wheels! haha, j/k.
You guys with stillen lip kits...how much did it cost total to get the kit painted? Now that i look the kits is expensive! Plus you gotta pay to paint it. So i was just curious to how much that is.

Thanks guys
I've got a few cons about doing lip kit or bbk. Both which involved living in freaking South Dakota!!
If i were to get a bbk kit, i would not have a set of rims to swap out in the winter because stock ones obviously woudln't fit. So that's kinda hard to work around..
If i were to get a kit, again South Dakota roads aren't the best. I've heard stories of the kits not lasting very long. And if i'm going to spend 700-900 to get a kit and get it painted, i want it to last. Anyone with stillen kit have problems with it getting beat up on the road?
Or....solution: Get a beater car to drive in the winter! Problem solved! heh.

Fr33way: They are 18X8 with 37mm offset. The Offset is PERFECT. The front is flush and the back looks good as well.

hahaI'm going to take some daytime pics tomorrow, with the car all cleaned. Its going to be a whopping like 32 degrees! Woot! Then its time to put the volks on hold till spring. Some dumbass lady almost hit me today, and my windshield cracked for no reason. Just popped cause of the cold. WTF? So i figure i better not take my chances with the wheels.

. I'll post them later today or tomorrow.
