I maybe wrong, but it seems like they come in 20s? (Couldn't tell if it is ONLY 20s or 20s as well)

They're gonna present it on the 2013 Tokyo Motor Show. It looks like it's only for 20 inch though.

20" tentatively with 8.5 to 12" widths initially and looks like potential to change sizes in the future. Let's hope. Those 20" sizes are for GT-R, 370Z, high-end super cars, and out of the norm domestics.

Not sure if happy they didn't just make my wheels obsolete or if sad they're only available in gigantic.

For some reason you will see 2009 on any link from rays website, even if it's a new wheel.

They will showcase the wheels on January at TAS, and more information will be available, hopefully they make them in 17 and 18'' sizes.

In for more info.

I love how Volk is engraving the spokes on their newer wheels, rather than having the decals. Very nice, minor touch.

I suspect it's because people applied them crooked.

Maybe. At the end of the day, that's user error, rather than something they did though. :P

It's because it makes it less likely to have accurate replicas of the wheels. Other companies will copy the design, but won't include the logo/wordmark on the spoke.
