VOLK ZE40 18" x 9.5" Review, Info & Weight

Hey Guys,

So been getting a lot of requests for the ZE40 and finally got a set in sizing we've been seeing on our cars.

These wheels have been increasingly popular on our platform and it's also VOLK's newest design in a while that's in their more competition class (TE37, RE30, CE28...etc)

It's a 10 spoke design and originally only offered in 18/19" with Bronze/Matte Blue Gunmetal. Earlier this year the 17" came out and a new color Diamond Dark Gunmetal.

We don't ship wheels out to door right now, and we are not taking order requests. These videos are just for information. Thanks

So hot in bronze. I would rock these on my imaginary WRB BRZ.

These wheels are easy to scratch, careful when torquing your lugs.

Yep. They are. VOLK has a special process with their paints, especially in these "satin" finish colors. VOLK started the volk bronze in the 90's because the method they used for that paint adds the least amount of weight to the wheel. Matte Blue Gunmetal is their newest color which uses this same formula.

You should try to get a better mic, kind of hard to hear what you are saying, but the wheels looks great!
