Most volk's come with a cap. If you don't prefer the ones that come with that wheel Rays makes flat caps (and others), if you click on the previous cars / intro on my signature you will see them on my G35 and M3. Here is a pic from the Rays option parts site:



If you are ordering a special order color, it's best to order those caps at the same time for a color match.

Edit:
Here are a few images of my flat caps.
Sorry, I wasn't clear. I know the regular TE37s have flat center caps available (even thought I believe $40-50 per cap is a bit high). The SLs are a different size to cut down on the weight. I have been told there are no center caps with them.

Looks like we were replying at the same time lol. You were right, no caps.

I pulled that pic off the Rays Japan site. It's under the Trinity wheels section. I could have swore I've seen that pic plus some more when someone posted pics of that body kit on the forums.

I was told the Trinity are available by special order. They are not stocking it in the US at the moment. I'm sure if demand rises they may. But ya, you just have to wait for it after ordering.

Supposed to be shown at SEMA toward the end of this month, I'm sure we'll see more info then.

Thanks for finding that, I knew I saw it somewhere. I does look pretty agressive.

I don't see the SuperLap on the RAYS site. I looked because they usually have a link to a size chart for each wheel. I'll see if I can find out what the current offering is although I thought I read that orders are being taken now for Nov delivery. If that's true I don't know how to explain how that WRX in the vid has them though..?

From what I have seen...yes you are correct. Here is a picture that I got. Other than the angle of the spokes being slightly different on the +12/+22 10.5 versus the +23 11.0...the lip length looks like its going to be identical. They took the time to show that the 9.5 +22 lip is shorter in the diagram...so I would assume that the picture shown depicts a rough image of actual product.

For a "racing" wheel...you really cant have too much of a lip anyhow. It affects the ability of the rim to stay "straight" during lateral cornering...well....so I have been told. Though...it does make sense...in an abstract sort of way.

I did a quick rendering of how SL would look on my PG. (I know, it's a bad photo editing job) I was worried there wouldn't be enough color contrast between the car and the rim but I think this looks good. I'm in between flat black TE37 and the SL. Which of the two would you guys get if you were me?
