FEELER: 18" Volk Racing LE28n

Asking Price:

None

Item Interest

Been contemplating selling my wheels so thought i'd post up a feeler. Specs and info are as follows:

Volk LE28n - Gunmetal
18x8.5 +30 all around
Weight: 17lbs
Center Bore: 73
Construction: Forged Monoblock

This is a custom one of a kind set of Volk LE28n's. These wheels are limited edition and were discontinued 4..5 years ago. They only came in 5x114 bolt pattern. I had them professionally drilled to fit the bmw bolt pattern (5x120).

I know a lot of people dont understand drilling and may get turned away. But drilling the wheel does not compromise the wheels structural integrity in any way. Many big name wheel companies actually re-drill their wheels to other bolt patterns as well before selling.

These are the one and only set of LE28's to be on a BMW. Great for track wheels (which is what i bought them for in the first place), or maybe those that have harsh winters and need a set of super strong winter wheels. Why buy reps for $1000+ when you can get a set of FORGED Volk Racing wheels for a little bit more!

The wheels are in good condition. All stickers are present and look brand new. Their is slight curb rash on 2 of the wheels (can be fixed at buyers expense).

Wheels will come with the limited edition caps, as well as your choice of BNIB Rays Blue or Rays Black valve stems. Im looking for $1300 OBO picked up (Socal). May ship at buyers expense if i dont get any bites locally.

Ill try to get some close up photos of the wheels if their is any interest. But heres some photos on the car to give you an idea of how it looks.

haha thanks David. Yea, trying to free up some money so these might have to go

. i was surprised at how well it looks too. The gunmetal color matches space gray so well it actually looks like it was custom painted the cars color!

That can be arranged. I'll sell the rims with TPMS wrapped with Kumho Ecsta MX for $1700. Figure, i want 1300 for the wheels, TPMS is $200 so that means im only charging $200 for tires.

I think thats pretty fair.

bump for a great price...you wont find any forged set of wheels for this price. If I only had the funds and these would fit my brand new reo1r's I just bought.

jumpingjz · 03-01-2009, 09:36 AM

wait angela turned down these wheels for such a great price with tires for a set of future V710? are you kidding me?!?!? any difference in handling going from stagger set to non-stagger?

just4kickz · 03-01-2009, 01:07 PM

Thanks for the bump. I know 18"s arent very popular, let alone non staggered, but i think at my price range, you really wont find any other set of wheels that are as strong let alone as light.

Did you pick up those RE01R's for dirt cheap when tire rack had the sale? I wanted a set as well but they were sold out of 255/35/18 almost instantly.

haha, different strokes for different folks. She liked the V710 design better, no worries.

On the street, i will say you probably wont notice that big of a difference. But if you push it hard enough through corners, you will notice that the car is less prone to understeering now. Its noticeably easier to rotate the car. Did i mention how nice it is to be able to rotate tires? hahaha

Thanks Andrew. Yea, if you guys want a set of Invos instead of my Ecsta MX on there, that can be arranged as well.

Car manufacturers deem it safer for a car to understeer, so almost ALL cars are setup this way from the factory. To counteract that, you go with a square setup to help neutralize the car. The last thing you want is a car to just push through the corners, you want the car to be able to rotate.

When driven hard enough, the different between staggered and non staggered is night and day.
