Rays VOLK Ultra 17x7 & 17X8

Postby Patrick Bramston » Tue Oct 18, 2011 5:51 pm

I bought these on Ebay.. They came of a Silvia with spacer adapters.. They are 4x100,,17x7 front with 215/45/17 and 17x8 rear with 235/45/17.. I am going to use the 17x8's to run 240/620 slicks when I get some hub rings and longer nuts.Not sure whether to paint them black...Patrick

Matt black!

Did you need to run 17's for brake.clearance or just more options for a slick tyre*?

the 17x8's are going on my white race car...it has 330 mm disks with 4 piston AP calipers.It has had a tune since that photo was taken and it up to 198 rwkw plus it now has Dan's coil on plug set up which feels like it might have added another 5 or 10 kilowats.PB

Very nice, I do love the look of Casper! I presumed your rotors would be massive, great find on the wheels.
