Volk TE-37 997 NB 18", TPMS.2, Toyo RA1 245/305
Volk TE-37 Track Wheels for Porsche, 997.2 TPMS Sensors, and RA1 Tires
Forged Monoblock, Strong and Lightweight. I don’t recall the exact weights, but I believe they were just under 18 lbs for the fronts and 20 for the rears. Perfect for 997 C2, C2s, and GT3. I’ve had the 12” rears and prefer the 11 as they are lighter and fit the RA1 or R888 305 tire better. Centercaps included as shown. It would be hard to tell these aren’t brand new.
Volk TE-37 Forged 18x8.5 ET 49 / 18x11 ET 60, List $940 / $997, $3,874.00
Porsche OEM TPMS Valve Stems and Sensors, $440.00
Toyo RA-1, 245/40-18 and 305/35-18 Shaved to 5/32 with 4 gentle heat cycles, $1,366.00
M&B $149.85
List $5,829.85, Sell at $3,500 OBRO
Local Pick-up preferred, but will ship at buyer’s expense.
* Note: I've run with and without TPMS sensors and prefer "with". Reason being that while they aren't perfectly accurate, they do show changes in pressure during a track session. Every lap at a certain point I check pressures via the dash display. The 997.2 sensors are much better on the track than the 997.1 were. Also, I just sold an extra set of these RA-1 tires for $1,200 because they are increasingly hard to find.

Ray's/Volks Racing makes one of the very best wheels out there. Superb reputation. Light and very strong. Highly underappreciated in the GT3 community. This is a great deal. All my cars are centerlock or I would snap them up in a heartbeat.

RonCT is a great rennlister.....no problems buying from him. This is an awesome track set up for a 997.2...2009-2012....or if you have a 997.1 2005-2008 just take the TPMS off the wheels and sell it here on rennlist.

If the sensors work for a 2011 cayenne I may be interested- needed for my wife's car to have a winter wheel set. Please pm me or email me at jmrotsaert at gmail dot com

Ray's wheels are great wheels. I have Ray's on one of my non-Porsche cars and like them a lot.
Porsche actually used Ray's on the GT3R hybrid, but switched to BBS for I suspect political reasons. I have wondered if BBS contracts Ray's to build their forged wheels which are made in Japan.
Go here:

and click on "brake system/wheels" link to see Ray's wheels described on Porsche site for the rear wheel where they forgot to remove it. It used to say Ray's for both front and rear.
