Picked up a set of 15x7 Volk GR-N's this week that I'll be working on. Gonna restore them to their original gold, mirror polish the lips, and replace the "volk racing" stickers. The wheels were stripped and half-*** polished, but all the stickers are still on the inside of the wheels. Cast June 7, 1994 w00t.

Bye bye SSR's:



Hello more bling:



The offset is a little weak at +43, so I've got some spacers on the way





Not too bad, eh? Now to see what they really look like up close...
Shitty Nitto 450's will be going, too.





Not too ugly when they're in the sun or rolling haha



Decent lip:



And the drop from 16's to 15's makes my mudflaps lowwwww...



And what would this thread be without a teaser? An upcoming project from Automations...



First step: A little bit of polishing









Still have more polishing to do, not happy yet...

UPDATE: 5/25/06

Got bored and rattle-canned one silver just too see how it would look, might just paint them all silver

Those look awesome at a distance, and not too bad close up. Have you considered keeping them silver? I think that color scheme looks great.

 

cant wait to see the finished product!!

 

Nice, can't wait to see the finished product, er products...


The wheels and the nissan.

 

I, personally, have not been the biggest fan of those wheels. I guess they look okay.

I love the Comps, though.

I love the Comps, too. Just thought it was time for a change. But don't worry, I'm just gonna restore these and sell them once my real new wheels get here

 

I love GRN's!!! Good choice
