You have no idea my friend. Volk upholds some of the highest standards when it comes to wheels. Way better quality and structure compared to fake CSL wheels.


Im all for it. I love the racey look. And they are stupid light, they are forged, so they will not crack. Yes they are expensive, but totally worth it.

Just make sure no wheel cleaners at all (just soap and water), and brake dust is a bitch to get off of them, because its actual bronze powder in wheel, not painted....so since it has a textured feel to it, brake dust loves to attach itself to it

Yeah i know they are tough and really light, but its just the color aspect of it that I don't like....Again thats my opinion and I usually see bronze rims on Honda and Jap cars mostly! But hey if you like them, its your car but if you take the majority of people that responded most people

the reasoning I hold to my statement is that aside from BBS or Rays Engineering, 60-80% of the wheels out there are not made in Germany. Heck BBS has a department in Japan.

Everyone is like, get CSLs or get this or get that, cuse its a euro wheel, when its made like all the rest...in Taiwan or China, Phillipines, etc. So is it really `euro`
