Rays Rim Price Increased

[Brandon]

Now I was browsing through the website checking the price of rims for my mate. I was shocked to see the TE37 I got last year is now 82,000yen when I got them at around 51,000yen last year!

I believe this increase is across all range because I have prices for Gramlight 57d and LMGT4. All these 3 models are over 50% more expensive....

That'll mean of course Brandon that some sets available here now, have suddenly become bargains!

Indeed but at the same time I dont understand the huge price increase. I mean if its 10 or maybe 20%, its still fine but we're talking about over 50%...

The website still say they're making them (I'm assuming because I saw another model which they actually state will be discontinued when the last piece is sold).

I was told by Streeter last year when I was buying a new set that I will need to wait for the LMGT4 if I really wanted them. Not discontinued but from what I understand is they need a minimum order before they will produce them. So I ended up with the TE37.

Both the TE37 and the LMGT4 are great Japanese wheels. However, I personally think the TE37 looks better on most Skylines.

Pres Obama gave a serve at the Chinese last week for hoarding rare earth minerals.

Could that mean that certain raw materials have escalated in price???
