Here's a question for you volk lovers. What are the only 3 forged mono-block wheels Volk makes?

they make more than 3.

TE37
CE28
RE30
Progressiv TE

there are older, discontinued models as well.

Plus i'm guessing you're not including non "Volk Racing" Ray's wheels, like Nismo rims.

Those listed are the CURRENT forged monoblock wheels that are offered under the Volk label by Rays. I mentioned that there are others under different labels as well as discontinued wheels that I didnt list all out. Also the Progressives are most certainly forged monoblock wheels.

Ok...I knew this was going to happen so...

The only rims Volk label as "Forged Monoblock" are Ce's, Te's, and Re's. There are also the other variations of the same design but in different colors i.e. Le37, Le28 etc...

Volk Progressive Te's are actually under "Fine Forged" as is the Progressive ME and Progressive Spoke.

I was kind of confused at first so I decided to flip through some spocom mags and found their ad. It says something like, we are happy to introduce the new RE and add to our line of "Forged Monoblock Wheels", the CE and the TE. The TE was designed for lightweight and to fit big brake calipers. The CE was designed to be lightweight and strong. And the RE was designed to be lightweight and balanced. If you don't believe me, check out Mackin Industries website

Progressiv TE and ME are 1 piece forged wheels, hence the name "forged monoblock". They are made on the same machines as TE/CE/RE.

Fine forged is just a term regarding the design. More luxury if you will.

Hahah...I was trying to stump you guys. Progressives are 1 piece but Volk doesn't label them as "Forged Monoblock". From the earlier pic I don't see it say anywhere on the rim. As for Te's, Ce's, and Re's I'm pretty sure they say "Forged Monoblock" on there (as do my le's). Okay...that was fun~ Back to posting pics!

^^ Neo-Chro? I keep hearing about them stripping, but I love the look of them. Open-ended lugs are not to my liking, but I might make an exception

I like the black ones...I think they're a little cheaper too. Best quality I heard...
