    That's the same guy that tried to sell them on here.

    I have never seen a set of TE37s with two of the lug holes lining up with the spokes.

    agreed.. i know they arent volk TE37s, im just trying to figure out what they are.. the stickers were originially on the wheels, whatever "manufacturer" they came from.. they are the same wheel as the link in my last post.. stickers are the same, lip is the same, spokes are the same, etc.. does that mean these are time attacks?

    Yeah, I like them.. Just not on my car.. I am considering removing the stickers and have them painted, I just don't know if I should yet, since they have the original stickers.?.?

    Pretty sure these are really old school Rays from way back in the day. If I were you I'd hold off removing the stickers

    Yeah those aren't real. I'd almost venture to say they are knock-off knock-offs.
