My new Volk G12's at Charlotte Cars and *Coffee

Quick pictures... Not the best. I will return and update the thread with better pics. We have had two weeks of rain. I love these wheels and will keep these until I sell the car. Unfortunately you cannot see the beautiful finish in these pictures. I went with a wider set-up to help accommodate my stage 2 GTM TT build. The wheels are flush and a perfect fit IMO.

Volk G12 formula silver double machining. 19 10 +30 and 19 10.5 + 30
Red Volk formula racing lug nuts
Michelin PSS 255/285

My friend Andy's 800hp red GTR is running the same wheels and tires. The finish is different (black clear).

your fronts are 19x10 +30 on 255/40?/19 am i correct?

i'm looking at running those EXACT specs on my front as well! how low is the front fender's highest point (the middle) to the ground? would really appreciate it if you could give me a ballpark answer

your ride looks amazing, btw!

That is correct. I will need to measure the highest point. I have zero rubbing, turning clearance issues. I'm also within proper alignment

Not a stretch tire fan. Some say the "meaty" tires make the wheel look small. I say function>form

You can't go wrong with a Rays product! Those Gram Lights are a similar design.
Is anyone else running G12's on the forum? Would love to see more.

Found this pick doing a quick search, but Lou@amplified never mounted?

jujubii You're looking at 26 inches. That's ground to middle of the fender (highest point).

I have two floor jacks and both fit fine? Even at that height I'm able to get into the parking deck at work, and speed bumps are easy.

Good luck!

Looking good, love these wheels.
You seem to be lower than me with 285 tyres on a +30 offset, no rubbing the rear bumper bracket? Even after trimming it I still rub pretty bad on dips
