They ARE nice.. and strong.. keep an eye on the offset though.. They tend to stick out.. (spokes) past the fender..

Nice choice.. usually more popular on the "higher end" imports (Supra RX7 Skyline) Volks make a real nice rim and Im a sucker for gold. Looks real good

back in my import days i used to have a set of 18's on my prelude. they are very light and strong rim. they come in alot of different widths and offsets. its a very well known "high end" import style rim.

There's nothing wrong with domestic car + import parts combination.

NSX guys love Comptech and Basch Boost products...

RX-7 guys love Pettite Racing and Racing Beat products.

The website is rayswheels.co.jp

here is a link to offsets

http://rayswheels.co.jp/cgi-bin/cgi2...modelName=TE37

Volks are probably the most popular wheels on 350z's. I used to have some 19" TE-37's on my 350z. Very light and strong - about 21 lbs for a 19x9.5" wheel

Im not sure that chart is correct.. Going by that chart they neither have the Bolt Pattern nor the Offset for a vette..
