Cool Looking for retailers for this Volk wheel!!!

Hey guys!

I am wanting to buy this 19in TE37 wheels. They are on the 350Z on the Japn Volk site: http://www.rayswheels.co.jp/index.html

I want the exact same ones. The look like TE37's we have but the middle is tucked in. Kinda like "Face 2" on the GTC wheels Volk make.

If anyone can tell me whom I can order these from and how much I would appreciate it!

Thanks!

james

AFAIK
The middle is tucked in likely because they are a more positive offset than the TE37s for RX7s. They're just standard TE's in 19", bronze. I've seen em on Skylines and they have the same look.

If you order em for a 7, they'll look different.

Seems like all the TEs look that way when you go past 8.5" wide or so. Offsets certainly contribute.

Cool TE37s played out??

I thought the TE37s were the most played out wheels for the Rx7?

Damn SleepR1, you must be in a good mood today. Not a single ripping comment regarding the 19s....

Why do you want 19s? Is this for a show only car? There are no reasonable tire sizes that you can run and maintain close to stock wheel+tire diameter. Not to mention the susceptability of damage to the wheels from street driving.

If you are just concerned about looks, I don't even think they'll succeed in that department. Your brakes will look tiny and unless you lower it, your car will look like it's been lifted. Stick with 18s or even better, 17s.

my 2 cents

We can get you this wheel. I am awaiting pricing and offsets available today. Let me know.

Thanks, Rishie

Fikse FM10 would be my choice. That diamond cut is amazing.

Well, I just like the style. But it seems to only be offered in 19in.

I was going to buy 18in. But I am stuck on Volk Challenge wheels or Gram lights 57pro.

Ard T2: how much can you get thses wheels for me? I guess I am looking at 18x8 in front and 18x9 in rear.

Rynberg: That does make sense I dont want to buy expensive wheels to get them trashed. I will be dring on the streets with these. Possible racing later. But I was afraid I would have to roll my fenders to put 19 in on. I just have the stock suspension.

I also didnt think about the brakes.. Definitely a good idea!!

So what do you guys think about Volk GT-P wheels? I heard you can get them in Bronze. But I have never seen pics of them.
