Volk CV Pro Re-Furb. Finished!

Picked up a set of 17x9.5 CV Pros through Ebay a month or so ago and when they arrived discovered they were abit less than perfect!

So decided to give them a good re-furb!

Happy to say after about 6 weeks, a pile of wet and dry, 3 tubes of autosol, a lost centre cap, managing to source and buy a centre cap, a found centre cap, some paint, blisters and alot of swearing, they are finally done!
Tryed to go for something abit different, and made all the decals myself.

Hope they were worth it!

Had planned a full photoshoot today but the weather had other ideas!









Cheers!
Sean

lol, think i will pass on that for now m8!

Ive got 235/45/17s all round on mine m8, scrub a little at the front on full lock but nothing drastic.

Think the offset on mine must be about 22-25 but got 25mm hubcentrics all round to pop them out abit further.

Crickey that must have taken a fair while!

If it helps I run 255/35R18 on mine with no scrubbing. From what I can see yours is as low as mine. You might be better off with 245/40R17 or even 255/40R17. AFAIK a 9" rim should have a 255 section tyre on it.
