volk rims

[matt31]

i have recently found some sick rims that actually fit my r31, only problem is now i dont where i can get them without getting them imported and even then i wouldnt really know what to do.

if anyone knows or has any experience with these rims, advice would very much appreciated.

Which model mate?

I have Volk TE37 bronze on my jalopy. They're fully sick mate ...

The only ones above this are the Volk Racing Challenge which are probably my favourites.

These are also pretty expensive. You'd be lucky to get TE37 for $4,000-5,000 a set. The VR Challenge even more.

I think Croydon AS are the distros but I could be wrong.

How about some Work deep dish rims instead?

TE37 Bronze!!! awesome! they're my favourite.

4-5K new.......awwhhh, i didn't think they were that much.

Do u find these wheels second hand at all?? Possible to get em in from japan??

Cos i wasn't exactly looking to spend that much on wheels when i get the car.

i know this is going to sound like blasphemy to u, but does anyone make copies of em??

[matt31]

yeh i was looking at the TE-37 in bronze but dont know they were so expensive, still very interested though.

Well I kinda got myself in a bit of a mess the other night in the rain and stuffed my bronze volk racing wheels, that were the best I've ever seen. Everybody commented on them and I had to go and smashed 3 of them. I was lucky I didn't do any pannel work. Just a lower control arm and a little bit more. If anybody knows anyone who can get me some in from japan it would be most appreciated.

Well I just ****ed my Bronze SE37's  

Oooch.

JustCars valued my 18x9.5 bronze TE37s at $8k!

That's including tyres BTW.

You can get them new for $1.5k per rim - 2nd had would still be close to $1k per - unless you get lucky. Fingers crossed

WTFFFFFF!!!

I scratched one of my TE37's so I need it fixed. I dunno who can do a good job on them.

Tony: One of mine has a scratch. Hit the curb.

Never ever again

Will let you know how I get on fixing it...

[T0nyGTSt]

Funny thing is that I always used to slam my previous cars into the gutters.

I drove like company commodores with plastic wheels caps and you'd just slam them into the curb.

Funnily I scratched the rear drivers side going too fast around a corner and rubbing the median.

My others are fine (I drive carefully and avoid reverse parking).

[Jamezilla]

Yeah - I never have this problem in the Lada

Hooray for BF Goodrich!

I scratched my drivers front - backing out of my driveway and turning too sharp.

Such a silly thing to do

Anyway... getting mine fixed before AutoSalon - will keep you posted

well, seems everyone love TE37, i can get them 2hand at much lower price with tyre, or Challenge for even less.

i am NOT a business man, i am an oversea student! but recently i am getting some rims for my line and i found that i can import them myself instead of rip off by Aus shop! if anyone interest, u can contact me and see if i can help. Which help me earn a bit of pocket $$ to mod my car

Hey Matt31,

Have a look in the FOR SALE SECTION, and do a search for Volk, theres a fair few wheels for sale.

Rays / Volk has a distribution outlet in Alexandria.

If you are looking for copies the closest I have seen is a rim that Advanti makes which is also bronze and looks fairly similar for a fraction of the price.
