Default Volk Racing TE-37

I'm looking for a set of TE-37 19" front 8.5 rear 9.5 in gunmetal. I try to find the proper offset for 350z. From the Rays official site it said +22 245/35 R19 front and +22 275/35 R19 rear. For those who got or ordered TE-37 19", what size and offset did u guys get? And how much did u paid with shipping and where? ( i got quote for $2900US w/shipping) I heard someone got it for $2400US w/shipping. Thanks

Check your PM.

BTW, we just got in a set of Mercury Silver GT-C's last night. Check out the pics on our site. They are amazing wheels, 3" deep dish. We have a set of Gunmetal TE's coming next. I think a certain someone from this site might be buying the GT-C's.

GT-C pics

Has everyone seen the Mercury silver TE's?? They are beautiful as well, we're going to preorder some sets, because I know they will be a hot item.

Those mercury silver's are nice.

Are there any other vendors with a 5-spoke simple design similar to the TE-37's? I think Nismo has one.

Any others?

Default wow! love those wheels

Wow, I absolutely love those Mercury silver TE's. I am really interested in them!!!!!! I need the info about them. Are they availible in 18's and 19's? 8, 9, and 10" widths? What is the rocommended offsets ft/rear. I got a SS Model E and they seem like the ticket.

I was thinking of putting something in the ballpark of 245/255's on ft and 275/285 rears on 18" wheels. I hope both of you that sell them will PM me and give me all the specs. I have been looking at so many 5/6 spoke wheels and these look great! What is the weight of those wheels? You know what i am thinking of so adjust it to make it work best. Sounds to be offhand that 8" on the front and 9.5 or 10" wide on the rears.

These are the same as all the other TE's you have seen available, it is just a new color, thats all. So, specs are all the same except for the price. They will be limited edition, so availability will be next to none. I will be preordering as many sets as I'm allowed, because I know these will look sharp. I was told to expect a March delivery date for them. So, I can take preorders whenever, but the wheels won't be here for some time. But hey, most of us have waited more than 3 months for our cars, Volks are just as exclusive as 350Z's so they are well worth the wait IMO.

Default looks different to me

Maybe my eyes are playing games on me? Other volks always looked like the spokes were really flat and these look like they have more curve, also, the lips seems bigger. That is what attracts me to these. Am I incorrect or is something different?

If you do pre-order, how are you handling it? full payment? % deposit of total cost?

I'm interested, but honestly can't fork all that cash till next year cause of all the end of year expenses.

Also how would these look with Le Mans? Opinions? I was leaning more toward gun-metal since it's a darker color... but these look fantastic.

Since the GT-C's have been commented on more than a couple times on this board....I have a question (what else is new?):

No one has answered a simple question of mine....what is the difference between "face 1" and "face 2" within the Volk GT-C series? It is explained that one of them has the "concave" center, but I saw a picture that claimed to be showing both models, and I couldn't see the difference for the life of me.

Someone please clarify. Thank you.

zland it all depends on the offset.. thats why a low offset +22 makes them look so phat.. got the nice lip and curve in the spoke to advoid a rotor...
if you look at civic te37s they look flat because they are so narrow..
