Unavailable Volk Rims
I'm interested in getting the Gram Light Pros, but it's not available in the U.S. right now. Mackin won't contact me about them. Anyone know if we're gonna get these?

I tried to get those...
...I tried to order them, but Mackin said they'd be unavailable for months, possibly as long as this time next year. They apparently have them only in limited amounts right now. I bet if you went through Fujicorp you could get them though.

I have been trying to get these myself. Mackin refuses to get them, and Rishie on here won't even return my Emails/PM's regarding them. I don't think we're sposed to have them.

I am trying to arrange time to go to Japan with him, and pick up ALL sorts of goodies,(heheh spending spree at Autobacs doooooool) these wheels being right at the top of the list.. PM me and I'll see what I can do about getting you a set.

^^^^^^YOU ARE CORRECT SIR^^^^^^
But both look a little too OEM for me.. the wide spoke PRO looks 10x better IMHO
The Pros look to be a Multi-piece wheel also. I don't think they will be very light though, regardless of the name.
Yummy
I'll keep you posted on my container status. My WD over there can get me nearly anything, I just don't know what to ask for/what is available.. Ill post to the for sale board my quandary

What hasn't been made yet?
Anyhoo, try www.takakaira.com. You'll be able to get the rims through them along with the latest set of sticky roadrace/street tires like the A042's or AO38's. Just let them know exactly what you want, size, offset, color, and they'll get back to you on shipping. Whatever it cost in Japan is what you pay, so if there's a price on the Rays web page, that's the cost.

Blue, you got the cast version and are different than the Pros. The pros are more bowled into the center. Absolutely beautiful. I haven't had time to try and find these or source a Japanese exporter.
If cuspid can bring 'em he's the man. I have a slight language barrier that poses a problem at times. hehe.
thanks, rishie
