maybe with some sicknasty camber.

IMHO te37s are getting so played out its not even funny. On FB there was a guy who accused Rays engineering of copying varrstoen. Ive even seen it on 8club where someone mistook te37s for rota grids.

yep munchys... 19x11 +18 with spacers on all 4 corners. also he is only running -3.5 camber front and rear (I think because his camber bolts are seized lol)

I can't believe we have a thread for these wheels.
Title should be renamed, "Calling All Posers"

Sure they can. It's not like authentic wheels cost a million dollars. Most just choose to buy knock off wheels + nankang tires + knock off body kit (no paint) and cut the springs for the same price.

Compare Varrstoen wheel cost vs authentic Volks. I'm sure you'll see a huge difference. I'm strictly referring to wheels. Not body kits, springs, or tires.

You've never had enough money to buy a set of volks? That is what you are saying? How do you survive in this world?

They're 1 piece wheels. The bolts are metal but are glued in.

Sifu in the Houston area with legit Volks + center caps:


please support legit wheels not rep. rep wheels only hurt the JDM industry (work, volks, SSR). SMH, at people taking the cheap way out.

Cheap way out? CHEAPER but not cheap. Authentics are better, but not everyone can afford to spend thousands on a set of wheels.

i agree. i wish i could afford authentic wheels but at 17 i dont think im dropping 6k for wheels and tires. Id rather put 1k into varrstoens that look exactly the same.
