Where to buy Volk wheels?

Hi all,

I will finally be getting my Z4M Coupe out of storage in about a month so I’m starting to think more seriously about ordering a set of wheels. I’m mostly set on Volk RE-30s but the new forged Advans look nice as well.

So, I’m looking for recommendations on where to buy Volk Wheels.

If you have any suggestions, please let me know.

Go on rakuten and order directly from Japan.

That’s a good idea, thanks. Is there a particular seller you’ve used? How was the shipping cost?

I’ve used a broker in Japan before but they tend to only get RRP and then they have to add their fee on top.

There is a Volk retailer local to me but they haven’t been that helpful in the past.

Nah usually I just find the seller with the lowest price and have them ship to a local reshipper who then delivers the item to me. Been using fromjapan.com for many years, good service plus their shipping rates and fees very reasonable. They have periodic promotions where they give 10% discount off items purchased from rakuten... in fact it's going on right now till 1 Nov.

I've never actually purchased rims before so not too sure about the shipping cost. There's an online calculator you can use to estimate the cost though.

Thanks, pcube - I’ll check out fromJapan.com.

I searched Rakuten and they have some excellent prices on TE37s (around $700AU per 18 inch wheel).
