RAYS TE37s Wheels – What are the differences between them?

POSTED

The Rays TE37 series can be confusing

There is currently 25 active variation of the TE37 models and let’s be fair some of them just look exactly the same. For example, the TE37, TE37 SL, and TE37 SAGA seem to be exactly the same as the first glance.

So let’s breakdown the TE37 at this post and figure out what so different or similar about them. 

The similarities


All TE37s come with the classic six spoke design, all of them have the word “Volk Racing Wheel” written on the spoke and are 1-piece forged wheels which clear the JWL standard.

And most importantly, all of them are made in Japan which assures consistent high-quality production.
