I want the same thing. I really wanted Volk LE37-Ts...but they're mad expensive and I don't think they even make them 4-lug.

Dont take out a loan to modify your car.

The reason I'm getting a loan is because I just turned 18, and I want to start building credit. I dont want to get a credit card because I'm afraid of what might happen if I go too crazy, and I think a loan would be a nice way to build credit, without going over board. Not only that, but my parents as co-signers can get me a great interest rate because their credit is flawless. Also, my name is being added to the car title, so I'll build some credit that way as well. Now that I'm 18 I have to make the car payment, but it's okay - responsibility here I come!

But no one answered my question, is "gunmetal" the same as "black"??? Thanks!

Default Volk Racing LE-37

Black2000gsr, after reading your post it got me a little worried.

I drive a 1999 black gsr and I have an order of 17" Volk Racing LE-37 wheels coming in the next month, ordered via www.diabloautosports.com. I am almost CERTAIN they come in 4-lug (otherwise the guys at diablo wouldn't have ordered it for my gsr, if you know otherwise please let me know so I can try to cancel the order); if they arrive and I see its a 5-lug I'm going to hit the ceiling (then shell out even more money for a 5-lug conversion ). But I'm almost certain they come in 4-lug, and I would highly recommend this wheel..if you don't mind diverting money from other mods to pay for them. h:

I'm also a fan of the black/dark spokes w/polished lip. I haven't seen a black gsr with LE-37's yet, so I'm interested to see how it turns out for my car (ASSUMING THEY COME IN 4-LUG ). I'll post pictures when I do get them put on.

Shingo

ps. Other mods pending install:

Comptech Icebox/I/H (already have exhaust)
Ground Controls + Koni yellows
