Volk wheel line-up

can anybody give me a link to somewhere online that has the entire Volk wheel line-up with all the different wheels and the sizes available and the weights, etc? i go to different wheel dealers and it seems that some companies carry different wheels from Volk but not all carry the entire Volk line-up, and most dont list the sizes or weights... im especially interested in the le37t, but i would like info on them all if possible... thanks

Do you need the weights, specify the model and size and offset.
I have a reference chart.

how about for the:

• TE37, 18" - 40mm offset
• LE37T, 18" - 40mm offset

(assuming that is the best offset for an FD, correct me if i am wrong... and what would be the best width?)

also, do both of these wheels come in a dark polished gunletal color? i think i somewhere have a picture of the LE37T with a silver polished lip and gunmetal spokes, but what about the TE?

thanks

The TE can come in a full gunmetal finish, while the LE will always have a machined lip.

You'll need to indicate the width and diameter of the wheel to get appropriate weights from Inukai. The offset being high means that the wheel would be slightly lighter than a low offset wheel as well. This is due to less material on the wheel pad.

Thanks, RIshie

Hi Inukai.

Rotary, you're just making yourself look bad. I don't see you coming in here and advising people nor do I see you guys helping out with the forum.

I've PM'd you asking that you cease from this as it just wastes our moderators time. I've established a relationship and good reputation with the club guys yet you persist on entering the site and advertising.

Please stop. The forum vendors are protected so that the products are protected. The club guys get an amazing deal from us and we'd like to keep it that way. I've dedicated a lot of time and would hate for you to not respect that.

I'd say you made a mistake and should have bought your wheels from us, the forum vendor and show some support for this community rather than just vagrantly advertising.

Manny thanks for the endorsement. I don't feel that you should have to repeat yourself over and over again. So I guess I'll step in and take some heat for this.

Hopefully the rules will be understood and respected.

Thanks, Rishie
