This is a 100% authentic RAYS wheel. The design was a collaboration with RAYS and SEIBON. Fitment for the Z/G will be 19x9.5 +22 19x10.5 +22.

its not a bad looking wheel. i think most people are making fun of the fact that it took a 'collaboration' of 2 companys to put gunmetal & 'time attack' together on a rim.

I don't get it..... They look like TE37's what kind of design collaboration was needed, other than Seibon providing their decal? It's a hot wheel by default cause it's that classic TE/LE design. I just don't get what makes it special?

It's just marketing. There will be guys who already have seibon cf hoods or products, then they buy this wheel to "match".

Hahahaaa...


But seriously, if they are indeed forged, where's the FORGED MONOBLOCK imprint?
