    They look like the te/le 37's but you say they are heavy and the style seems off so I would say thoes are Konig Rated R's and not volks.

    Those wheels SHOULD be forged by what is printed on the back. They are either Volk wheel with heavy ass tires (possible) or they are a very good replica that has the "forged" stamp on the back.

    if they were real they would have "volk" or "rays" stanped into them somewhere... my old mazdaspeeds do. either Konig Rated R , Rota Grid or any number of knock offs.

    Those are definitly Rotas. Aaron, you should know this as you have my buddies old TE37s. I remember him taking pictures and comparing shit to the fake ones to verify authenticity.

    But, if you are so curious about these wheels and you're thinking about purchasing them, then I hope you'd be a good shopper and research like crazy to avoid being ripped off. I don't know anyone in their right mind who would possibly SPRAY paint real Volks. I can understand powder coating, but not spray paint.

    Read these threads and thank me later:

    Definitely not volks judging by the comparison pictures. None of the lug holes on the real one lines up exactly in the middle of a spoke or the valve stem. Also, I highly doubt anyone with volks would spray paint them.
