Volk TE37's
 
I can't find these wheels anywhere in matte black or gunmetal. Where'd everyone get them from?!! I only find bronze and silver. And what would be the best tire? Nikko, Advan...?!! I'm not tracking the car, it's just for daily driving..with a burst of aggression :driving:

Have you tried PMing vendors on the boards yet?

SophiaZ 03-01-2010 06:03 PM

That...I did not

shabarivas 03-01-2010 06:33 PM

Nikko? I think you mean Nitto :p

Anyhow - the TE's are not made anymore - Volk only makes the G2's which are the new gen of the TEs... Your best bet is to PM forged

Even if the TE's aren't available right now, go for the G2's, they look so similar.

Not sure where you heard this, but it is not true.

The original TE37s are still available. I placed 2 orders for them as recent as last week. :tiphat:

370zdub 03-02-2010 11:04 PM

Where is Tony, I figured he would have been all over this thread by now! haha

I can see why you'd say that, they look similar in face design but wheels are usually categorized two ways. Wheels with lip and wheels with no lip. TE's will have lip on a Z fitment, G2's don't have lip at all. It's a personal preference. I like wheels with lip myself.

This is actually not entirely accurate. The 20" G2s do not have a lip. However, the 19" G2s have the same size lip as the classic TE37s. I am attaching pictures so you can see what I am talking about :tiphat:

Hey, I stand corrected :icon14:

I've only seen the 20's and assumed all sizes were the same. Since I didn't care for the non-lip look I never went any further looking at other sizes. It's pretty rare on 1 model wheel 1 size will have lip and another not, on VOLK's anyway.

I really like the way the 19 looks probably because I've always liked the TE. It's timeless.

I agree....and the new design is a winner. :)
