White 997 GT3 with Bronze Volks

Check out these Volk Racing TE37 wheels on this white Porsche 997 GT3. The Volk Racing wheels are made by Rays Wheels in Japan. The front fitment for the GT3 is a 52mm offset 19x8.5 inch wheel with a 5x130 bolt pattern. The rear is a 65mm 19x12 inch wheel with a 5x130 bolt pattern. The Volk TE37 wheels weight about 19lbs for the front and 23lbs for the rear. As a 1 piece forged wheel, this wheel is EXTREMELY strong and lightweight which suits the Porsche 997 GT3 racing capabilities. The wheels are also designed to accept the factory TPMS sensors.

If you have pictures of a GT3 with wheels you prefer, post them. But post the sizes and weights. We are talking track wheels...

If you can get a set with a rear offset of around 45mm +/- 3mm, I will buy them.

I am sorry but IMO those wheels are ugly. Look better on a 350Z or other Japanese car.
The weights of 19 and 23 lbs are good not unique.
I do not think they compliment a GT3/RS. I'd go with the CCW's for track use. They look better.
Sorry just my opinion.

I have 2 sets for track use and have posted pics of them on my white 997gt3 on the rennlist board should anyone care to see pics

The Rimms require metal hvac tape applied over wheel weights to make them stick or the use of clip on wheel weights which I now use

So far the Rimms have served their purpose well - ie they haven't bent, they are easy to clean and you can't beat the price given their weight and long term reputation for track use

Highly recommended - just slap some 235/315 hoosiers or 235/305 r888s and they make a great trackday setup

Lucas is a great photog, when were you up here? Was this the track day the N.Y club had? As for the rims, those are awesome track rims but I'm partial to black on a white car for a street setup. Sick machine btw.
