Default Volk Racing TE37 Wheels

Several folks had requested pics once I got the wheels in ... here you go.

FYI - Saves 10 lbs per wheel over Turbo Twists.

Yes ... forged ... one piece. About $2200 for the set (8.5 x 18, 10 x 18).

Attached is another angle ...

They are very very nice. What are the offsets? Have you noticed a difference on the track?

Never taught they would look that good on a pcar. I usualy see them on japanese cars.

Very nice car all in all. Love the GT3 seats.

Hey Danny ... braking and acceleration seemed to be better ... seat of the pants though ... I was testing some new swaybar setting and was slower all weekend. 60 rear offset ... they fit perfectly.

I was a bit concerned about the 'ricer' look at first ... but after I scraped off the blue Volk and Rays stickers ... no problem ...
