I havent heard **** about bending.... The Japanese market would rip them off the shelves if that were
true. Just like the Advan TCII, isnt it weird that you
never see it around. It was only around for like 10 minutes and gone. If you ask the company the just
change the subject and say like the RCII and you
say no TCII and they say RCII, and you can no
TCII and they say RCII. YOUR LIKE NAVY BLUE!!!! haha
I think that wheel got pulled off the shelves, but know one can give a straight answer....

I agree ( and hope to god, cause I've ordered a set already ) "Ray's" wouldn't put their name on a crappy soft wheel, would they? They'd better be heat treated .

I wish I had them....... The pros!!! they are sweet.
Like I said, I spend everyday at a place like Autobacs, and hang with the boss, he keeps me updated on Japanese parts and info all the time. I have never heard crap about these wheels, I know you can get them at Autobacs here in Japan too, and they wouldnt sell it because they would get their *** sued off if it was true...

Just found out that Mackin is in the process of trying to expedite US availability of these wheels now. The Pro and the Forged.

Looking around the end of summer.

Pm me with wholesale pricing and shipping/duties etc included.

I have a demand for several several products from Japan. Are you an established exporter? If I sent you a list of products needed would you be able to put the container together quickly and get it shipped out.

I can't work with the standard 60-90 day waiting period. I'll be building lists ahead of time and we'll make a deadline for it to get out within 20 days or so.

Please send me a list of all the products you are a distributor for.

Thanks, Rishie

All:
I was looking at the sizes available, and it doesn't look like they are available with enough offset for FDs: The pros only come in 18x10 and 18x9... maximum offset is 38mm... if i were to upgrade, i'd want more than a 9" rear... the 57fs come 9.5" at only 38mm ofset. are any of these enough for the rear (let alone the front)?

RotaryMonster,
Their prices are good but not all that cheap.. You should never say they will beat any price on VOLKS or any company for that matter, there is always someone that can beat them.. It just depends on peoples motivation and contacts. I know my can get them for about $200 plus shipping for the 17 inch wheels, from ASM. Shipped would be about $250 for the whole set, maybe less. You do the math..

Trust me, they will beat any price. Just let them know where you found your price and they'll beat it as long as you can back it up. They have been distributors for Volk for almost 4 years now and are great people. If you think I'm lying, e-mail them or call them for a quote if you already have a low price you want them to beat.

WE will not ***** out these high quality JDM products in a price war. I will simply not offer the low pricing anymore which will have even more of a negative effect on the masses.

Support your community and respect the rules of FORUM ENGAGEMENT. hehe.

I was looking at the rays site and saw what looked like a different variation of the gram lights. The only description that I could read was 18. Just wanted to know if anyone knew more about this wheel.
