Figure out the offsets, see if they're fake!


There are TONS of fake TE37s and some look pretty damn good... Find a wheel guru in your area. And/or PM Waizzzz

If you're not lowered those won't look right as G35C uses different offsets especially the front.

If not mistaken, nismo wheels are made by RAYS. Should be forged, around 18lbs.

TE37, same technology, material, new around $850 per wheel.

Yes and no, they weigh more than TE37s, I'd like to say 23lbs for the rear

Check the offsets on the TE37! Make sure they're around +22 in the front and either +22 or +12 in the rear!

Since they're teal, the original stickers might be gone from inside the barrel unless they were removed before refinishing and put back on afterwards.

Just do the usual checks to make sure they're not TE37 knockoffs.

DEpointfive0 is on it. Our forum vendors got us covered. I almost got those instead of Forgestars but didn't want to continue running spacers.

Just to let you know to verify these are real since the teal is not a color Rays offers so they were painted/powdercoated after and the Rays stickers won't be on the inner barrel.

To verify for a 19 fortunately all TE37s in 19s will have embossed words etc in between each spoke. JWL, Rays, Forged etc... If they are varstoens or Rotas they won't have these written on them (maybe jwl but not forged or Rays).

Also the rear +22 will be weak if you are lowered, go with a 20mm spacer to bring it to a +2 and it will look nice. The fronts will look great.

I've had 3 sets of TE37s so any questions you have I can certainly answer for you

Can one acquire those stickers on the barrel? I have some CE28N TTA's or something with too many letters and the red stripe looks RETARDED on my blue car, so I'm going to powdercoat them... And the stickers are kinda gone anyways, lol

Unfortunately Rays is so strict with their stickers they only give out with new purchases. The rays/volk spoke stickers can usually be purchased on ebay (some are fake) but the inner barrel sticker with offset/width specs are stamped on at the factory and that's it.

Just to make a suggestion for you why not have someone or yourself get a vinyl strip in blue or whatever color and go over the red? There is a motorcycle shop online that sells the kits for 19 inch wheels for like 20 bucks.. Not sure if you know who Nitrouz is on here but he did it on his 350z and 370z and it looked sick! They have literally 100s of colors to choose from in every shade etc.

Welllllllll, a bit of curb rash, and I really just want to refinish the wheels. Loooonf story but I scuffed them up a bit while putting the lugs on too... I know... I know... I'm a horrible person...

Other question I had, any idea how much the value of the wheels drops without the stickers? Orrrrrr... If I went to engrave one of the spokes with "Rays" or whatever it is that comes on the new JDM only version that one of the sponsors is bringing to the US, would that lower the value?

Stop by your local RAYS dealer ship, show them the actual wheel.

They will be able to order them for you with sufficient proof.

I just got some CE28N sticker in stock in NY, I just need proof it's real CE28n in order to sell them to you.

Need to ship them to a customer for replacement.

Ravspec to the rescue, this is a cool thing both the fact you want valid proof and that you give the opportunity to get replacement stickers
I have seen rota wheels with Volk/rays stickers on them
