Default These real TE37's?

Are these real TE37's? Local guy selling these for $300 with good tires. They're 17's and 4x100.

Why is it so hard for people to tell? Clearly rota's, the valve stem lines up with a lug hole.

Those are clearly rota grids.Just look at the design of the spokes and also where the lug nut hole is compared to the valve stem.

Dude look at where the writing is next to the valve stems on the rotas. far from the valve stem hole and the volks sit closer to it.
Theyre fake! Done deal.

They probably aren't Rotas like the last guy pointed out....but they're not Volks either. Could be any number of copies. Grid aren't the only copy of the TE.

Anyway, OP, do you REALLY think you're going to get Volks for $300 with tires? But really, any decently designed wheel with good tires is worth this. I'd buy them for that price before I buy some OEM wheels.

The guys listed them as "6-spoke rims with "volk" stickers". Pretty sure he doesn't even know what they are.
