Does anyone know what sort of rims these are?
I know that they are rays but not sure to what type. There is no labels on the rims. :confused:
The reason I need to know is because these wheels were sold as being VOLK CE28N but to me look nothing like genuine VOLK CE28N. I'm 80% sure they are not VOLK CE28N, i just need to confirm it 100%

Pic of actual rim, I think they are Volk NRS

Heres a couple of pics of VOLK NRS I found

I have always seen those wheels referred to as Volk GRN. That first pic you posted of the red/black wheel appears to be a different wheel whereas the others below are GRNs. Look where the spokes meet the lip. They are obviously not CE28s anyway.

yeh you seem to be right man, ce28n spokes almost go right to the edge of the wheel while the GRN have a bend and semi lip going on.

Ok Guys here is the update
For those who havent seen my thread have a look before you read on
http://www.ozhonda.com/forum/showthread.php?t=98037

I bought these rims thinking they were CE28N But turns out they are not they are volk grn. I paid $1500 bucks for them. When I first recieved them they had paint flaking all over. I though dodgey made a complaint and it was answered with they are in good condition. So I took it on the chin and thought well they are CE28N so still not too bad price. Then with a bit of help from you guys, I find out that they are actually volk grn!!! not happy :( .

The certain trader which i bought the rims off at first denied them not being CE28. Finally after the thread i started he admits they are not CE28N. Even though he knows he has sold me wrong product he does not want to compensate me in anyway. He did not offer a refund or anything. Pretty much just tough luck.

I really want to post who the trader is though it will be against the interest of this forum as he is a trader here. Anyone who does not want to get ripped off by this trader pm me i will tell you who.

I wrote to him.....

Whatever it the rims are they definitely aint VOLK CE28N. VOLK CE28N was what i paid for definitely not what i recieved!!!

Its like walking into a car yard paying for a skyline gtr and end up getting given a skyline gts-t dressed up as a GTR. Are you getting my drift ? Step into my shoes!!

Im not asking for a complete refund I've already spent more money on them without knowing they weren't VOLK CE28N. I was told they were in perfect condition but they weren't but I thought I'd take it on the chin and let that slide. Being completly different rims to wht there suppose to be, man thats too much to let go. All Im asking is some compensation like a few hundred bucks back my way.

You must now be able to plainly/obviously see they are not VOLK CE28N . Make things right I haven't blabed crap about your business as yet, I hope we can keep it that way. I get the feeling you havent sold me these wheels intentionally knowing they weren't VOLK CE28N but its only fair of what I am asking.

Please sort this out and make things right. I beleive there are honest people in this world I hope you turn out to be one of them.

This is his reply

no used wheels are in perfect condition mate. I would never say perfect either. Best I say is excellent or Lan case I said mint cos it was almost brand new when I bought them.
As I said it looked like CE28N when my mate asked me to buy it for him and he couldn't pay for it so I sold it to you under impression it was a CE28N. Never knew they have nrs or gns

Guys dont get ripped of by this guy pm me I'll tell you who.:thumbdwn:
