Right now, I just wish Volk made the TE37 19x10.5 in a +50mm offset.

19 x 8.5J, +44
19 x 10.5J, +42 <--

The Advan Conosseur and the Sianna II Nice photo's

I'm with Jim on the Volk TE37 19" but I would settle for 18" with the neg. offset look.

Here is a bad photoshop of what I'm thinking...color blend is not the best either but hopefully you get the idea....

I love the bronze volk racing rims (6 spoke i think) on black or blue cars.

Racing Hart m5's look good on almost any color car

I'll try and post some pics of my Fikse Mach V's. Sorry for the low quality, they're taken with my camcorder.

I am definitely an oddball on this site I am totally not impressed with the Sienna's after finally seeing them on a ride. Also, Kinesis and Fikse rims are manufactured great I am sure, but none of them really catch my eye.

I don't think your an oddball. I have owned my FD for 5 years and I still can't decide which wheel to purchase. So, show us which rims you like? Always enjoy seeing photo's.

Fikse Profil 13, Profil 10, or Profil 5S in 9.5 x 17, 50-mm offset, 7.22-in back space, 3.28-in front space. Yes, Fikse now offers Profils in 17s (yippee!!). Tires would be 255/40-17 Continental Sport Contact 2s (OE Porsche N2).

Damon, would I want Spreewells? Of course not! Thus, you must conclude that it wasn't me.
