Last time I researched, they were 24 and 25 (front / rear), but of course the difference would be 3-piece wheels vs. 1 piece by comparison.

Wanna make me a Volk Racing smiley?

Really? I need a spare. Don't think it'll fit over my fronts though. If you buy, lemme know if it fits.

There was a member I keep forgetting who it was, he has a 4 inch lip and it looked real nice. I mean it looked amazing!!!

I think a bigger lip on a sedan does look nice. Atleast this member's did. I guess depends on the rims?

Anyway, keep up the mods looking good
