I have looking for 16x7 Bronze TE37 for a Type R. Anyone know where to get Brand new ones or even mint used ones.

Help a fellow R owner...Thanks.

 

Search, they're constantly for sale. Just search all forums for Volk, and look for the ones that are for sale, chances are, there will be more than a few bronze TE-37s.

This is also a useful thread. It's the 5x114.3 wheel thread, I've seen them in there quite a bit as well. Make a WTB in this thread.

Also, Aaron (User name JOHN WAYNE) has some 16" +42 5x114.3 WHITE Volk TE-37s for sale. I believe $1,200 with tires, $1,050 without. They're in pretty good shape from what I could tell from the listing.

 

Call Makin Industries... ... ...

 

Thanks for the help, I called makkin and there saying 8-12 weeks. They really wanted to get rid of the 17s they stock and didnt' seem very helpful.
I'll keep searching from some Bronze 16s.

 

You should consider yourself lucky only having to wait that long, people have waited over 6-8 months for some...

 

I love volks, but I wouldn't that long for anything unless it's free...lol

Thanks for the help guys.

 

Then you're not going to get very far...

 

I guess thats why the knock off wheel business is huge, I will find some but waiting that kind of time when your paying for something is not acceptable. Sorry.

 

Then buy yourself some Rotas smart guy...

/thread

 

I was not meanig it that way, Thanks for been a Jerk off.

 

Me being a jerk off? More like you being a dumb ***... it's common knowledge for people to have to wait for wheels, especially anything from Rays Engineering, they're manufactured in Japan in case you forgot. People are in here giving you ideas and you come back with stupid **** like... "no no no, I'd never wait that long, that's just stupid blah blah blah"



Go cut yourself...

 

Just that it's made inJapan , doesn't mean it take 8 months to get unless it comes via Donkey. I order Japanses parts, I know the deal.
Maybe you can tell me more about it when we're in Vegas over a beer. I guess I don't know the R and Volks are "Super Parts".
Simmer down man , don't take things to heart!

I'm chilled, they pickier you are about size the more narrow you'll search will be, I've been through it all countless times and was just telling you what was up, if you can't take it... then like I said get some Rotas.

There are cases where you'll get lucky and run into a set for sale in the exact size you want, but it's rare...

 

My buddy just picked up a set from evassive motorsports for his s2k. They shipped them to tirerack who mounted/balanced his tires and reshipped to him without an extra cost

 

^ Damn I didn't know tirerack would do that. I'm deathly afraid of getting some of my rims mounted. A scratch would mean death.

 

Just buy some damn used ones, and cut out the wait time, not to mention half of the price. I've seen MULTIPLE nice condition 16" TE-37s on sticky tires for $1,000-$1,200 pending on condition. That's pretty damn cheap for such nice wheels.

I'm definitely getting some used TE-37s when the busy season rolls back around.

 

Damn... what's up John!!!

Looking for TE's? PM me the offset and all that, I know your not on here much but i'll give you a ring soon. I need to get my FBP down to you soon anyway.

 

You can try GT Motoring.
Any funky sizes/offsets they can get in couple weeks, not months!

[edit]ok well SOME wheels can be had in weeks depending on how funky it is and the stock level in JDM land.

 

i can get you: RAYS VolkRacing TE37 7Jx15 +43 114.3-5H with BRIDGESTONE POTENZA RE-01 195/55R15, i would say about 40% tread....
overall really good condtion

 

Thanks for the replys guys.
I would get some used Volks, just want to make sure there mint. I'll keep searching on here as well as Ghey- bay.

 

As many of you know most new cars aren't coming with wheels any smaller than 17" from the factory. Mackin sells many more wheels in larger sizes, which is why finding sets in 15 and 16 inch packages are harder to come by.

Just recently a authorized Mackin dealer shared with me that if not already, then very soon Mackin will no longer be producing single sets of wheels in 15 or 16" sizes unless there is a specific group buy or quantity in demand with enough interest that deposits will be collected up front before the order is started.

Unfortunately as you know, you just don't go to your local AutoZone or Advanced and ****** up a set of TEs or CEs.

To the OP: Good luck finding your wheels, you most often aren't going to find what you are looking for immediately, but keep an eye out and you'll find them eventually. Also... should you decide to buy new and can find someone to place the order, you will wait months upon months.

Cory: Relax bro... you get excited way too easily!
