I dunno though... looking at them with BLUE stickers, I could accept that they are pretty adult-removal-proofed. As long as I had some assurance that they are Gloss Black with BLUE. If they were gonna be any other color, I wouldn't be able to do them. Gloss Black is still sick though.

Just wanted to clarify, that my TE37's are FLAT black and not GLOSS black. Can't speak for the effect on the gloss black finish, but my "slowly scratching them off" method didn't effect my finish at all. But again, mine are flat black.

I am not sure if peeling them off the gloss black finish would be any different from the flat black. I have only seen stickers removed when they were being repainted :/ |

I think the official Rays color designation (according to their literature) is "matte black" but matte and flat are used interchangeably by most people, including Rays sometimes. There are not two different variations of the "flat" look. Not a dumb question

fyi, you'll want a drop with these wheels...at stock ride height those fronts are going to be sticking out past the fender about 10-12mm
pm price please?

We do highly recommend at least a mild drop in order to achieve enough negative camber up front to make this set look flush. The front wheel is considered "aggressive fitment" although it doesn't take too much effort for them to look absolutely perfect, as we have seen with several other forum members.

No not at all, I'm just saying like you said earlier about special wheels getting different stickers. I didn't know if they made sets with different sticker colors. Like having a check on the outside of the box saying what color stickers they have... I'm just a bit bitter when it comes to ordering wheels since I ordered a set for my tC. But what I ordered wasn't what I recieved. Ordered: Tenzo Passion 5's Gloss Black 18x7.5 w. Nitto Neo Gen's Recieved: R-1 Racing GTR-4's Gloss Black 19x8 w. Kumho Ecsta SPT's Needless to say I was thoroughly pissed. And I never heard a word from the company after my account was charged. Didn't help that I was oversea's and couldn't do anything about it. But no I wasn't trying to say anything towards your company. I'm really really looking at getting a set of these. I just can't decide if i wanna go with a Chrome lip or not. I really love that look of Black on Black with the lip. I dunno about all black.

Yes, i just used Goo Gone to clean it up after I was done scratching them off with my fingernails (didn't wanna use a tool for fear of scratching). Took a while, but be patient... it's worth it. No residual damage on mine.
Blue is the only color sticker to come on these Volk's. The time attack version offered red stickers, but they are now discontinued... (my TE37's had to be custom painted to get the time attack look) . You can purchase the red stickers separately for about $120 for the set (2 stickers per wheel). As for the chrome lip, those would be the LE 37's (great looking wheel), but they are also discontinued, so would be nearly impossible to find in the correct offsets for our Z's.
