te37 reps question.
 
Looking to get Katana k102 rims. Anyone have this? Wondering on quality cuz they seem to cheap. Around $100 per rim. I looked at their website, but they dont even haven them listed. Looks similar to te37. Like the low offset for an aggressive fitment. Anyone recommend anything similar to te37 look. Real te37 are just too expenisive imo.

Rota grid

Yes the real deal is more expensive, but you're going to end up having to buy replacements after you hit your first pothole with those wheels you're looking at. $100 a wheel is extremely cheap, there has to be some serious cutting of corners and safety concerns with those.

Real TE37s are expensive for sure but such an awesome wheel :)

As far as well known reps go.. There's rota, varrstoen, and miro.

Yea I like the rota grids but want something with +22 offset or less. Anyone have reviews on option lab 401 wheels? They have a similar set 18x9.5 with a +22 offset.

Vaarstoen is a good replica option from what I have seen.

Or you could hold out for a set of used TE37 at a good price like I did ;)

Unless OC means oconee county South Carolina looking to buy garbage tier wheels means you should probably wait for next weeks allowance and spring for at least rotas.

Thanks, but I ain't a baller like you. I can't afford $3k for a set of Rays. Plus another $800 for tires. Btw OC stands for Orange County, CA. West coast baby. :respekt:

A) I like rotas, I said buy at least rotas. I have a used set of rpf1. They cost me less than rotas.

B) I know you're from Orange County, because the only douches that wave that letter combination around like it's some sort of bragging rights are from there. The link was for an oc with half the per capita income of Orange County, that was a joke.

Generally it also means they aren't looking to buy absolute bottom rung wheels. Don't do it, wait for some more allowance, it won't take you long to get another few hundred.

Go for the Rotas. Like it was said before, it's all fun and games until you hit a pothole and crack or bend a wheel. With a Rota you are out $200, which a Rays you are out $600.

Why do you want such a crappy offset?

Like the te37 style with a low offset +25 or less for that aggressive look. My dream wheels are the te37v, gunmetal with polish lip, 6 spokes and a deep dish look :party0030: but they don't make them in 5x100 with low offset unless I put adapters and put a widebody.
