The New Hotness from Rays Wheels! TE37 C1, G25 and 57X

Up 1st is the new lightweight TE37 C1 (CONCEPT ONE). This wheel comes in at 7kg, or 15.43lbs, for 19x8.5" sizing! For reference, the TE37SL in 18" weighs 18lbs!! This is crazy. I can't wait for more info on this wheel.




Next up is the Volk G25. I don't have much info on this one, but it looks good

I'm all for lightness in a wheel but doesnt it get to a point where it's TOO light and structural integrity is diminished on everything except the smoothest of roads i.e. tracks..

so if you live in wonderful la or ny, I would assumed your investment into these wheels to be temporary as they might break

cool - thanks for the high res pic of the 57Xtreme fitment chart.
rays needs to stop making wheels that have offsets that work with the evo x but not the evo 8/9.

18x9.5 + 30 would be ideal for some wide tires (275+) for the 8/9

That's definitely a concern. Until these wheels are available to the public, we can't do anything but speculate on their durability.

With that said, all Rays/Volk/Gram Lights/WORK/SSR/other JDM wheels all have to pass JWL certification, so they're all SAFE.

Seems like RAYS is focused on improving current designs right now. I'm sure they'll drop some new/fresh designs soon.

They need to bring back the SE-37K.....ASAP. Had a set on my Type-R. Dying for those to be re-released.

I just bought a set (on Forza lol). Good looking wheel.

18x9.5 +22 is a good fitment. You'll probably need to roll your rear fenders for it, though. If you want to be pretty flush without rolling your fenders you could go down to a 9" with a lower offset, or stick with the 9.5 and a higher offset.
