They're not under Volk actually. The gramlights are made by the same company,
Rays Engineering, that makes Volk.

edit: Yes, buy them. I wouldn't trade my volks for anything, except maybe cp-r's, or some other super high quality wheel.

they'll hold up better than knockoffs, but if you're going to be worried about denting your rims, I'd just get something cheaper or smaller.

the rota attacks are gram light replicas and they are lighter than the gram lights go figure.

but there have been strength problems with the attacks so i would go for the gram lights... id actually get some buddy club p1's but ya know

yeah why do they advertise them as Volk's when they are not?? i see it in magazines all the time as Volk's??? i wouldn't trade my wheels either unless...but i do want some advan rg's but cant afford them right now and i don't like the waiting period on them since not many people have them in stock even though they advertise them

Gram lights 15X7 weigh in @ 12 pounds. Strong rim as well. What rota comes in 15X7 at a lighter weight?

If you like them and have the money get them... there are plenty of other options out there though (styling as well as 'fuction')

they are expensive and strong, but it's funny, in japan, gram lights are like stock steelies, if you buy new tires most shops will mount them on grams thrown in..
