hey all,

i just purchased Volks RE30 18" x 7.5 ... wrapped in 225/35/18.

i have a 2008 MX5 GT with performance pack.

i am lowering my vehicle with Eibach Pro Kits with the bilstein shocks on the performance package.

will i be okay? no rubbing right?

Sorry for the bump but can anyone pls shed some light on this... i tried searching and i read that some people have a similar set up with no rubbing or fitment issues but just wondering if i can get a double confirmation...

thx

This is actually covered in the wheel threads...the critical piece of info missing here is the offset. Assuming your offset is about 48 or 50mm then those will fit your stock MX5 fenders without rub.

Hi 99leeric

Could you post some pictures including closeups of your new wheels once they are on your car. I would be interested to see how they look!

Thanks
Bryan

Brian, thanks for responding...i know they were covered in the wheel thread but i kept geting bits and bites and wanted confirmation from you... since you know best. my offset is 50mm so i should be fine...
also is it true that Eibach's actually lower only 0.75" whereas they state 1.5" in the F and 1.3" in the rear.. they lower less than what they advertise?

i'd like to start ordering from you... however i'm located in Canada... have you had customers complain about the duties when ordering from you

Thanks again for all your help...

catshark - will post once i get them on

Most of the duty/brokerage issues in shipping to Canada center around UPS brokerage rates. We ship most items FED EX these days.... Also, many Canadians use our online system to ship to a mail drop on the US side of the border for pickup.

can you tell me more about your online system to ship to a mail drop. where do most cdns ship their items... i'd like to do the same thing!

Where are you in Canada?

Forget the pictures, I'm also in Toronto, give me a shout when you have the wheels on! I'd like to see them in person if you don't mind showing them off.

i put my rims on the car. how do i post pictures?

I think, the best Volk Racing wheels for us are the G2, RE-30 and CE-28N, because they all have the 18x9 5x114.3 with +50mm offset... Those VR wheels are pure s-e-x !

i tried uploading the photo of my car but it doesnt accept it... how do i upload photos?

Just put the link of the pics...

forgive me... but what link are you referring to?
the pics are on my desktop on my notebook
let me know.
