Not often do I see REAL TE37's. But man do they look good on everything.

Do you know how they are real? The owner told you they were. Speaking of which. I wonder if Enkei center caps will fit on Rotas, for ultimate troll levels!!

Believe it or not, I can spot a knockoff pretty easily.

The Rotas generally have the exaggerated spokes where they stick out a bit more, same with the XXRs. Other than that I am hopeless!!

These would look kick ass on your XT.

I'm putting them on a 70s Cadillac if I can ever afford them.

Rays/Volk are probably the only aftermarket wheels worth buying. Most of the others are of low quality.

Knockoffs, man! Knockoffs! Or used.

Good old Rota grids.

I have knockoff enkei T6S wheels, and they suit my needs well and cost 40% what the TE37s do.

Those are not quite the same, I'm strictly talking about the TE37 copy cats.

Oh I will, as soon as I can, don't worry :)

A friend of mine had a set of those on his black NSX. I was always sufficiently jealous. Oh, and 275mm rear tires on an NSX look crazy good.

They look right at home on the NSX.

Well, and the words"RAYS ENG." and "VOLK RACING" forged right into the metal on 201+ wheels like the ones above.

Eh, they're six spoke and shaped pretty similarly. What separates them in your eyes? Color?

It's where the spokes connect, the lip, the spokes, a lot.

I'm a wheel snob.

No worries. Eye for detail isn't a bad quality. As long as mine aren't considered knockoffs it's whatever lol

Nah Enkei's are good wheels! Like I said I'm a snob

I have a few eclectic wheel tastes. Let me know if you ever find a set of Borbet Type A wheels.

This bloke on Rennlist has some very pretty TE37s on his 997TT.

Nice. Only problem with real Volks are if they get stolen. That's going to be a big chunk of money.

80s retro, yes please!

Cast vs. forged is a pretty huge difference, and accounts for much of the price disparity. But, I wouldn't say that the TS6 is a TE37 clone. They just happen to have six wide, flat spokes.
