here's a set that I am kinda like I dunno what to think about them

first pic: with the lug alignment trick would confirm them as real...

second pic: the rays sticker to tell you when they're made and lug pattern, etc. (but note that this sticker says that it's 4x114.3)

third pic: the confusing one it's stamped with rays eng, made in japan, but 4x100 (wtf?! was that just a screw up?)


so I am confused about this set...

all input will be greatly appriciated

 

its fake!!! =O

 

They are stamped with alternate available patterns

 

thats cause your lug pattern is 4x114

edit: i dunno why they stamped it 4x100 though thats weird

 

maybe a accident on there part?

 

If it's stamped Rays Eng. on the back they're real.

Nice SLR

 

ive seen that happen before. those are def real though

 

if it stmaped Rays Eng. then they are really and its just a mess up on there part.. ive never seen a knock off that had rays eng. on the inside of the wheel

 

Most of them are stamped like that. They most likely forge all the wheels in the same mold and cut the bolt pattern after the fact. I've seen 5x114.3 wheels forged with 4x100 on the inside as well.

 

What the heck is with the car in the last pic??? Did it drop from the sky or is it laying on something...

**** is definitely real

 

I would just ignore the stickers cause 4x100 is actually correct. They're real alright, so don't worry too much about them.

 

I saw someone ask this question before on nasioc.com - an answer someone gave was, its to cut down on cost from the forging process - keeps them from having to make separate forms for each wheel PCD... if thats true, you should be good to go

actually, the wheels are 4x114

 

Looks real to me!

 

Poor friggin' Rays Engineering....people have to prove that TE37's are real nowadays beyond any doubt. -

I fear the day that I need to sell mine.

 

thanks for all the input now atleast I am not so worried!

 

how much
