Volk Wheels?

I haven't seen any CL's with these, nor heard anyone talk about them. What's the word on these TE 37's?

Aloha, those are my wheels that E-Dub shows in the photo. I get tons of looks now at my car, they are way light, very, very strong and i love em. I rarely see them on any car.

Do they come with those logos on or are they optional? Is there a center cap for them? How much quicker does it feel w/ the lighter rims? tia.

the center caps are optional ... no need if you will race only with the rims ... but who wants to race those rims

i've had my eye on them for the 2 years i've owned the car ... 17 lbs for an 18" rim in unreal .... the se37k's that astro has on his now defunct cl / tl are also nice ... but his are bent

The Phrase "VOLK RACING" is part of the rim. For some ODD reason, Volk decided NOT to include denter caps :ghey:

Then is there another brand/model of super light (16x7 @ 11-12 lbs) that doesn't have any lettering and includes a center cap? I want the performance gain but want to keep a classy look. BTW: my car is also white and that white w/ white rims looks sharp.

Look into the SSR Competition or Type-C as it's known in Japan. It does come in a 16 x 7 size as well. If you wait till the end of this year, SSR will have the Competition in Silver.

mine weigh just under 15 pounds each...and one of them, has a slight bend in the outer lip from a curb impact when I got pinched on a narrow road...
