17x10 +45 5x114 Bronze Anodized Forged Wheel

Story time: Back when I had CE28 I was using them at the race track. They handled the track abuse, couple of track excursions, and looked damn good! I always had the thought in the back of my head to not damage these wheels, maybe I should get a dedicated wheel for the track? After an incident at a tire shop they left me with four damaged CE28 Faces. If you don't know the wheels are painted or anodized. Long story short they were sold as is. Fast forward a year later, I always wanted another CE28 set, it was by far my favorite wheel.

With todays current market price it is a huge risk to take a discontinued unicorn spec wheel to the race track. Part of going fast and pushing your car is to feel 100% comfortable/ confident in whatever you're driving. Worrying about damaging expensive wheel sets at the track is something I don't want to worry about. I reached out to Vaikhari USA to collaborate and produce a small run of 17x10 +45 Unicorn Spec with revisions to my needs, while matching the quality as much as possible.

I did make a couple changes because the original VOLK CE 17x10 +45 could never clear a BBK without a spacer. This new design I have confirmed will fit Spoon Monoblock, Stoptech ST40 and C43 BBK (by 5MM) clearance on an S2000. I also incorporated a knurl bead on the outer barrel where the tire sits to give the tires inner grip from spinning when driven aggressively.  This is something Vollk did not do on the original design. The only drawback I could not match to Rays Engineering/ Volk Racing is the weight. Original came in at 16.5 lbs while I was only able to achieve 17.4 lbs per wheel, while keeping the same 690kg load rating. The best part about these wheel sets is that they are a Forged wheel, and are replaceable. Im still running these on my personal s2000. It has the form and function to take to the track, and to also drop jaws at the local car meet.
