Possibly the TE37SL, but yeah, TE37 variant for sure.

Cool thanks. What do you think of the rim? Good enough to invest in?

Forged monoblock, some of the most popular Volk wheels to date, and with good reason.

If you've got the money to spare then it's a great wheel to invest in. Quite a few of the members on the forum have some sort of TE37 variant whether it's the original, LE37, or TE37SL.

No I did not realize that. It looks real to me.

If I buy a OEM 19" Rays then it'll cost as much as an aftermarket one. So I'm still thinking what I should get. OEM or aftermarket.

I called a few Nissan dealers a couple days ago and tried to find out the pricing for the sport Ray OEM. I couldn't believe how they ALL were clueless. One of the dealer had a price of $600 per rim but he told me it was a 17" which didn't make sense. I told him the 370 only comes in base which is 18" or sports pkg 19". He said he couldn't do more without having my VIN #. My car is just a touring with no sport pkg, so it wouldn't help anyways.

If you can afford aftermarket by all means do it.

I would start with the Marketplace here, there are always deals to be had

I run the TE37sl and I'm very happy. Volk wheels hold their value better then the stock rays... If you are worried about resale value. That's why I kept my old sport wheels. I figured that I could sell my Volks to help pay for another set of wheels and then trade my Z in with the sport wheels.
