These were just debuted at TAS
TE37RT's - TE37SL's simlar design but 6% stiffer and a machined Volk logo to differentiate from the replicas




TE-37 Tokyo Time Attacks now feature a machined Volk logo

Agree. Nice touch to the wheel.
Nice find Cheston, looks even better in high res
No additional info on them yet, I'm sure it will be available soon
Notice the new machined stripe around the wheel, something different for sure

well. the SL was created by machining off the center cap area, as well as behind the spokes to make it lighter than the regular TE37....
i bet they did re-look at the engineering design, and put back some material on the back side of the spokes to get the stiffness back, and with the machined lip ring, probably was able to remove some material such that the weight would be similar.
but they didnt say anything about the RT being as light as the SL.. just said stiffer... imho a few ounces of weight in order make a wheel slightly stronger is probably a decent trade off. but single digit improvement is near noise level imho...
i'll wait for Mackin to chime in with their official response when they start getting more info from Rays..
