Tire choice, size, and pressure will also have a lot to do with how it feels afterwards. Just something to keep in mind.

i was thinking 'bout time attacks, black LE37s, or just black TE37s...turns out i never understood about offsets either so now i'm trying to figure that out! is it better to have a smaller number offset or larger? does it matter if i plan on adding a brembo big brake kit? i'm goin' crazy!

Thanks

ce28n has a lip and ce28 does not.
for 18x8.5 you can go +30 offset.

here are some old pics of my 8 wrapped with ce28n. fronts are 18x8.5 +30 offset with 245/40/18 front and rears are 18x9.5 +38 offset with 275/35/18. the rear fenders needs to be rolled.

Wow. Those 28's are nice!

Just wondering if you have a pic looking down the side of the car from the rear?

Can you guys post up some links of where your Rays wheels were purchased? I'd Really like to own a set but am having a little difficulty finding good websites that sell them.

replying to g30ffman: what silver8 said is almost correct. the ce28 "N" has a lip, like the ones in the above pictures, my volks are the same too... the ce28 "NF" doesn't have the lip. here is my car while I was doing some fitting tests with NF more than 2 years ago...

Thanks for the angle silver. I'm almost sure I will go with the 28's. It all depends on the weights of the new GT-f's.

Your have one hot car!

Don't expect any of Volk's GT series wheel to be too light.
