Here's some basics, but I can get any of the Volk Racing rims for you on this group buy. I am doing a 10 set minimum to keep these prices and if less than 10, I will have to recalculate as we will not get their deepest buy.

I am a performance retailer and distribute for Racing Beat and several other manufacturers with more coming. This group buy has been going on for a couple weeks in the tire and wheel section and apologize for the delay, so please go there to indicate orders and zipcodes for shipping estimates. I am not purchasing any for myself and am doing this to help out the forum's existence. I figure this is a good way to indirectly get people to donate, as this site is a valuable asset to our rotary kind.

We are paypal approved under: autornd@hotmail.com.

If this buy goes through, we will be donating a significant amount of money to the forum to help with its recent financial problems. I feel that this is the most professionally organized and mature forum I have been a part of and am fully willing to endorse it if afforded.

Mount and balance will be included, tires at highly discounted rate. Tire prices will be posted at the time of order inquiry.

Other colors may vary slightly per rim. I have not got the details on that, but this is what I have from the list given.

TE37
15,7.5 = 300.00; 15,8 = 310.00
17,8.5 = 399.00; 17,9.5 = 410.00;17,10=415
18,8.5 =435.00; 18,9.5= 445.00; 10.5=460.00

SE37K
17,8.5 = 399.00; 17,9.5 = 410.00;17,10=415
18,8.5 =435.00; 18,9.5= 445.00;

VOLK III
17,8 = 550.00; 17,9 = 565.00; 17,10 = 585.00
18,8 = 595.00; 18,9 = 610.00; 18,10 = 625.00
19,8.5 = 650.00; 19,9.5=670.00;19,10.5=695.00

Thats a pretty good deal. When is the cut off for the group buy? I just moved this week and need a few weeks to come up with monies. Also Can I order a pair instead of all 4 if I dont have time to get the money for all 4?

------------------

 

I'm in!!!! I'll need a few weeks though... when is the cut-off? I'll need:

(2) TE 18X9.5
(2) TE 18X8.5

Let me know!

ZZ-

How'd the move go?

Jason

 

Oh, oops... Zip code...

27606. I may not need tires though...

Jason

 

what are the weights of the rims?

 

what's the tire brand choice? We can order the wheel with any brand?

------------------

 

It doesn't really matter to me as far as time frame, but the people who are in will not wait and I feel that others should take that into consideration.

Once we get this account we'll be set permanently and everyone will prosper, especially the forum. If you haven't donated, but are using the resources, this is a good way to be charitable but get a phat hookup at the same time. I can't emphasize this enough. The forum needs our help and am assuming that the funds donated will be used towards it as well. The money is really coming out of my pocketbook, but I feel it is for a good cause.

On that note, I will say that all orders must be in by July 1,2001. That's a whole friggin' month. Including all payments received and verified by that date.

If time is of the essence for racing and ****, then please indicate that in your reply. If we are a couple sets away then I will buy them with my own damn money in hopes that one of you guys will want them later.

Thanks again,
Rishie Garg

 

Put it this way, in SCC the wheel guide indicates that an SE37k in an 18,9.5 only weighs a like 16lbs. Hope this puts things into perspective. I don't know all the weights and don't intend to call for them. Just know that these wheels are the ****, in all respects. Nobody should question,. "RAY'S Engineering." hehe, j/k.

These rims are so light and that's why they're expensive, but highly desirable for any vehicle. Oh yeah, FORGED. Very important word for those of you performance involved. If getting this rim you must know that anyways. I mean people don't just spend this much money on rims and tires w/o getting some background wheel technology history.

For aesthetics I'd get the SE37's, for an FD, but I don't have one and already spent more on rims than my FC GTX is worth. I'm done, working on the bimmers though until I can afford a FD.

Thanks Guys,
Rishie

 

Well the moved sucked! The roads all the way up throuhgt NY NJ and COnn sucked! I thought I was going to blow a shock! Anyways The people up here act like they have never seen a 3rd gen before! And the ones who know what it is stare at it like its a Lambo or something and Yell at me as I drive by "NICE CAR!!" Its nice to be around family and there is a kick *** job up here for me thats why I moved. Other than that you can keep the Northeast. Roads and drivers suck ***!




------------------

 

I am interested in:

4 SE37K 17,9.5 (what offsets are avail?)
4 Kumho Victoracer V700 275/40-17

How much extra for silver or black?

Zip code: 92647

What would the total cost be and when would they ship (roughly)?

Thanks!

 

Volk lists Nismo rims on their site, guess they're made by the same company. Does that mean you could get some Nismo LM GT3's at a good deal also? Those would fit on a FC wouldn't they? 5x114.3mm bolt pattern...

Anyway, those rims are super sweet! Can you get a price on them for me in the sizes I pm'd you that I would want?

I'm still shopping for the 'perfect' rim. I just wish I could see them in person before buying.

------------------

 

Hey, can you get prices for SSR GP-0 Evolutions, Agle Minerva's, and Agle Strusse's? I would also love to know how much those weigh... I like the look of all those better than the Evolutions, but not sure about the weights.

 

hey, are the roads in NY that bad? So if I move up I can't drive ma FD?

------------------

 

What is the diffrence between the SE-37 A and K? Also, are they available in different finishes?



------------------
Ihor 93 SSM Touring

 

this is SE37A


this is SE37K

They look totally different.

------------------

 

Thanks for the assistance omega. I doubt I can get time to answer a lot of the pictures questions as mine have been faxed to me and suck. All the help will be appreciated and speed up the process.

From the looks of it, we could do this within the next two weeks, provided I get you the damn estimates timely and payments are received likewise.

I've got some local customers with other vehicles, so yes I can get them for the supra. I checked the offsets and are pretty dead on. It's blurry and real fine print, but they have several fitments and that's the cool thing.

I have about 10 together now and will be processing shipping costs to me and you. I'm not sure if they include freight for purchasing 40+ wheels. They should. If the cost is very minimal I can include it. Just wanted to make sure everything is understood. The bottom line is what will really make it noticeable, hopefully.

Be patient, and don't buy compulsively. I am really here to save you guys money on some very expensive wheels. This is a team effort and must stay united or we shall all burn in flames. hehe.

Thanks, see ya,
Rishie

Isn't NIZMO or NISMO, nissan motorsport. I have not inquired about these as it seems like a contradiction. But I will for you BOOSTD. Anyways, I'll have to call a different supplier for the GP-Os. I'll get you the prices on the CP-035s also.

Thanks, Rishie

 

I want to be in too, but I still can't makeup my mind about 17" or 18" wheel. I know what tire I want I want the Bridgestone S03. Just can't make up my mind about the wheel size. zip 60616

------------------

 

Still positive I want bronze TE-37 in 15x7.5 +25mm and 15x8 +27mm, thinking 225/50 15 Dunlop SP8000. Zip is 95519

 

The SE37A's and K's do weigh just over 16lbs. each in the 18x10" width...Overboost.com, whom I write for, has a set on their Project Supra MKIII. They slapped em' on a digital scale and took pics. Amazing. These rims are lighter than say the twice as expensive Forgelines!

I do know that certain colors on the Volks are special orders from Japan only, like black. I was interested in black SE37K's for the overboost.com project FD3S for that JDM look, but it may take longer to get special colors.

On another note, Volk is introducing a new wheel, the LE37K. It's the SE37K with gunmetal spokes and a machined lip. Should look good. Mackin said they were arriving in July/August. I'd be interested in a set of these, 18x8.5 front, 18x9.5 rear.

PROBLEM:

Like TT said, there's certain colors that are special order and will take 3 months to get. In fact, most of the phat widths are not stocked. That really amazed me. There is an extra $30.00 per wheel for those different colors. In the TE, white and bronze are standard, others are extra.

As for shipping, add $50.00 w/o tires that is. With tires add $100.00. Everyone will pay the same price in this buy, as the shipping does not differ by much.

In stock,
TE37, white and bronze 18,8.5, no 9.5s.
SE37k, 17,9.5 available Bk, Br, Sil.

Basically, they don't have **** in stock. This really irritates me. Anyways, let me know what the heck you guys want to do. This appears to be the only way to get these wheels. We must all do this together also and I can get these wheels to us guaranteed. I'll have a couple of pallettes full. I will find out what kind of deposit they require on Tuesday, and will post it then also.

I'm really sorry guys. If you want these wheels this is what we have to deal with. So let me know. They are awesome in weight and durability.

Expect 3 mos. delivery time.
Everyone knows what to calculate for shipping, we have enough people to do this and can get going next week. They will be guaranteed, and a nonrefundable deposit will be required. I'm putting up some serious g's to do this and would be so fucked if you guys backed out at the end. I know I'd sell them, but how would I pay the balance. Invoices will be e-mailed and mailed to you.

Thanks, Rishie

 

I think I'm getting a third gen. Not sure if I'm up to the "money pit" yet. But BATMAN has talked me into it. If things work out I'm gonna want a set of these rims so we have to do this.

Otherwise, I'll probably take a loan to open it up, order the wheels, wait three months, and sell them for BANK. What they're really worth. hehe. j/k. WHen they come I will post them on the forum. It'll be like paying $69k for an M3, that lists $47k, because you didn't want to wait the extra three months, Bay Area of course. hehe. Always a sacrifice, but you too can be on a waiting list. hehe.

Hope we are still on. I'm going to do another thread with the exact details of the whole situation next week. I'm gone til Monday evening.

Thanks, Rishie

Or else, let me know some other options. I'll look into racing hart, but their discount is whack, but rims are a little less. Let me know.

 

damn $69K!!!!!! No matter how great the car is It don't worth that much. That kind o money can almost buy a M5.

 

I don't mind the wait if the price stays low...
