Rays VOLK RACING TE37 G2 Brochure

Kev · 01-22-2009, 02:28 PM

Here's a copy of the brochure from Tokyo Auto Salon. Looks like the fitment for the E9X M3 would be as follows:

19X9.5 ET22
19X10.5 ET25

and multiple 20" applications as well

These will be going on to my E92 M3 comes spring.

The Volk wheels are great wheels but they definitely have that Japanese car look. Look much better on a Z or S2k than a German car imho.

Blip Bavarian · 01-22-2009, 03:18 PM

does anyone have weight numbers for these wheels?

I wonder if they will make an 18"

Really? I like them on chompino's car.

Also, my winter wheels are also JDM:

Weight for 20s is about 10kg I believe, so figure some where between 9-10kg for the 19s

Don't think they'll be made in 18s, but you get still get the 18" TE37s, still looks great on the M3.

aus · 01-22-2009, 06:26 PM

That 19" wheel looks like a TE37 since it has a lip?

Any idea on cost yet? chompino's car is just sex.

And, is your Winter set-up NEEZ?

Kev · 01-22-2009, 06:29 PM

the 19" design is different from the 20" design, and you're right that it bears more resemblance to the original TE37. I actually like that look better because that's what the ALMS M3 looks like.

The winter wheels are indeed NEEZ, but with regular E92 offset with spacers.

with all due respect but ur the snobbiest m3 owner ever

PunjabiM3 · 01-22-2009, 06:34 PM

I am talking about the design of the G2 wheel and for that matter the Volk TE37, etc. The Neez look fine because they essentially look similar to the CSL wheels. I dunno, I just see mesh wheels are more euro style wheels.

dwu · 01-22-2009, 09:01 PM

anyone have these on a Space grey coupe or at least photoshopped?

GTM · 01-22-2009, 09:21 PM

We already ordered 20in flat black TE37 G2s for E92 M3 which should be arriving end of Feb.

modbargains · 01-23-2009, 02:55 PM

You can NEVER go wrong with VOLKs, great choice.

Wonder if the 18" version will fit over the 380mm Brembo BBK

These would be made in 18" fitment initially.

I very much prefer non-lip, monoblock wheels.

I will take a set of Morr Alloys.

So, you can shove your arrogant bling comment up your ass.

No need for insults...... to each his own.

Good luck finding a set that is in acceptable condition with good powder coating that's not half-assed. After seeing what happened with the VS7 and VS8 group buys, I'd be very cautious about buying their wheels.

I am not getting any aftermarket wheels, I just like the way their wheels look. Same goes for the Neez wheels, they just look great.

Only responding to the arrogant bling comment.

I like monoblock wheels and three-piece wheels, equal opportunity here.

If you liked the VS7/8, you should like these then:

I think the TE37 G2 19" will look better than the 20" version.

You are swapping out parts designed by some of the top engineers in the world because some guys sponsored by a company told you it's "better??" But when you ask the same guy about tracking, "oh no, I have a kid now" or "I just detailed my car." or "i just got new tires."
