The TE37's in 18x8.5 and 18x10.5 should be around 18lb and 19lb, respectively, so Bruinbro's measurements are pretty good. I have Ray's Engineering CE28N's in 19x9.5 & 19x10.5 sizes. They are also forged monoblock, and weigh 19lbs and 20.5lbs, respectively.

You should be able to buy the 18" wheels for around $2200 per set if you shop around, and the particular wheel is in stock. Since they seem more popular with on Japanese cars, you will likely find them in online shops that cater to Japanese cars.

I bought mine for around $3000 shipped with Toyo T1S, so the TE37's should cost a little less. My fitment is not for a p-car (350z), but I thought I'd chime since I contacted half a dozen shops while shopping. Mackin Industries is the sole distributor of Volks.

I bought mine at from http://revhighonline.com, but got competitive pricing at 350zonline.com and http://www.evolutionautosports.com/volkwheels.htm

I've had great success with asking them for more competitive pricing than those advertised online. Good luck. I don't think you'll regret going with either of these forged monoblock wheels.



You may need to special order them since these companies usually stock popular sizes for the various Japanese cars

Thanks for the photochops guys!

I'm not to sure about the gloss levels though still to 'blingy' looking for my taste. I think the wheels really are much more matte.




Juan, They have a 'special' Porsche wheel 'TE37P' and Since they fit a boxter, I'd think they'd fit any late offset 944.


What do you guys all think about the Bronze on Blue???

I have bronze on blue on the iX, I like it...much more subdued than Hypersilver. The color is off in the photo and the wheels are 15's. Your blue is lighter also isn't it.

I really like those!

I never have liked a bronze finish, but the hyperblack or gunmetal is an awesome look!
