Well they ARE made by Rays...
But the reason his scale says 7.8 is because it's in kg... 7.8kgs = 17.2lbs (approx.)

I'm sure I'll get mixed opinions.. When I first ordered them, I admit I was a bit unsure myself, but now that I've seen them, I'm very glad I ordered them.









Unfortunately, I have to hold off on getting tires for now. Hope to get tires soon and get them mounted.

front: 18x8 +33
rear: 18x9 +27

Going to be on my brilliant black (hopefully soon).

Those look sick! Can't wait to see them on the 8. There was a Z in black that had GTF's in the same color I think. Maybe they were pink? They still looked sick like yours. Congrats.

yeah... hate that I have to wait on tires... but better to wait than to over spend... Called in today about the center caps (they forgot to put them in the boxes) so should hopefully be getting those soon... Going to have to work on body kit stuff after this I think... car is a bit plain as it stands now.

the red GTF does look good, but how about GREEN?

i used to be a bronze TE's owner, but switched to gold advan RG....
i have been looking for a set of gold TE37 with perfect offset (coz i have BBK)
but now i saw this and i wanted it so bad



all the volk disturber has these (and the gold) in stock but only in +22 offset
i wish our 8 use +22 offset like all the G's and Evo do...
it will be a lot easier to buy rims.......

If we are Airfreighting wheels to your doorstep 3-4 months is achievable; that's for Custom ( offset + PCD ) wheels in Custom colors

Off-the -shelf sizes + Colors are typically 5-7 days delivery, if we have 'em on the shelf

best

galaxy gray ... I'm going for the dark look ...

Actually, I was looking for lightness first ... I picked Diamond Black so the brake dust wouldn't show as much
