Sneak Peek: Matte Blue Gunmetal Volk TE37 Ultra & ZE40
Volk Racing stopped by our facility to show off some of their new wheels, we jumped on the opportunity to snap some photos for you.
On the left is a 20"x10.0" Volk TE37 Ultra, and on the right is an 18"x11.0" Volk ZE40. Both wheels are painted in a unique Matte Blue Gunmetal finish, and feature extensive CNC machining work. According to Volk, these wheels utilize a special manufacturing process to create the new centers, which don't only look great, but also add additional strength and rigidity. Weights come in at 24lbs for the 20"x10.0" on the TE37 Ultra and 20.3 for the 18x11 ZE40. Another new feature found on these wheels is anti tire slip knurling on the rims, which is trickle down technology from Formula 1. Sharp eyes will also notice the "bridge" created in the lug circle, which increases wheel strength. Lug holes are also slightly larger for most standard-wall 17mm sockets. These wheels will start making their way over to the USA in mid April, but for now you can get an up close and personal look at them below. Volk TE37 Ultra Volk ZE40 Weights For those going to Bimmerfest on May 17th at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, we will have the wheels on display in our booth to see firsthand.

However, ZE40 is 18" from 8.5" up to 12.0" widths. Both accept center caps (not included). Pricing will be announced closer to release date.

I was surprised too. I guess they add some mass for strength.

Volk has moved to engraving on logos with the new releases.

I wish those ZE40's weren't so pricey.

The logo engraving is not painted, so it will still be silver in appearance.

More than that I believe. They're about the same price as TE's IIRC

Sorry about that, the engraving shows the raw aluminum color (silver).
