Volk CE28N 18x9 Titanium Gunmetal
*****SOLD*****
I'll leave the pics up so other can see the what these wheels look like.
[B][U]Volk CE28 with New Continental Sport Contact2 Tires:
Wheel size is 18x9 +35 offset. Color is Titanium Gunmetal. Tires are size 255/35-18 and have about 6k miles only, you can see in the picture the tread depth is nowhere near the wear bars. I chose these because at the time Tire Rack rated these with very close grip levels compared to the Bridgestone, yet they are 4 pounds lighter per tire. 1 wheel has a small nick on the upper portion of the lip that faces the tire. Not very noticeable at all. Included are matching black lug nuts and Bull wheel locks. Wheels and tires are mounted and balanced. With the HKS Hipermax RS suspension I'm selling on the suspension forum they do not rub when turning at full lock or carrying rear passengers. I prefer local pick up, I’m in Mission Viejo Ca. (South Orange County). I have a verified Pay Pal account. I will check the thread/PM's from time to time but the best way to ask questions is EMAIL ME PLEASE. Mraculous@yahoo.com

Below is the pic of the wheel with the small nick. It looks like a black dot at 6 o'clock on the outer part of the rim facing the tire:
Thanks.

By the way, if anyone is coming from out of town for the L.A. Autoshow or the D1GP this Thanksgiving weekend, I live in the general area. I'm within 45 minutes drive if you are considering picking up any parts I have for sale. Just FYI.

Peter,
No I would rather not. If you want to buy the set and sell the tires after, more power to you. Maybe you'll come out ahead but I'd rather not expend the effort.
If anyone has doubts these tires came factory on the last generation 911 Turbo. They are good performing tires, and light weight. I had them on the car I owned previous to the EVO. I seem to remember everyone loving the Bridgestone RE050A. When I compared them (see dry grip and weight) I went with what made me happy in the past, given they were so closely rated and since I rarely track a car enough to where I would notice the difference in the two. No track days on these wheels by the way, didn't have them on long:

-4LBS per corner is huge for suspension performance. Just my 2 cents.
