3 years after this video came out I just picked up my Rays Gram Lights and can already tell just how high the quality is. Superior build quality straight from Japan!
@@kevinpham8578 nice, I bought the works emotion zr10 's, tbh I'm not disappointed. 5x120, 9.5 j x 18's only weighs just over 8 kgs for a non forged wheel. Looks awesome 👌 take care bud 👍🏼
Great info It would be amazing to see the wheels made in person at the factory My 15" TE37 are made in 1997 with no repairs. Faded valve blue stems and caps. They are CTR/ ITR fitment and you can bet they have taken a beating over the years. All I do is take my wheels on back road runs, autox and lapping days. Speaks to durability.
Kev27RS I only got them last year so I dont really know what kind of life they had. They are rough with peeling stickers and a few curb marks so they have definitely been well used
Mine are very similar. 15” te37 civic fitment. I think they’re made in 1998 if I remembered correctly. It’s still in a pretty decent shape after 20+ years. Very nice quality wheels.
I have 14" Ce28n's that I've had on my car at least a decade. They are mini lightweight tanks, nothing is going to bend them or mess them up. And I lived in the northeast where you have no idea what's going to be a pothole come tomorrow morning and they don't give a crap. I bought a cheap set of lighter rims for my other car and bent them in a few months because I missed a pothole and that's all it took. They really are worth the extra money.
What’s your thoughts on redrilling bolt pattern on te37s? I saw a set pairly price but in 5x112 need them to be redrilled to 5x114.3? Would they still be good?
Rumours have it that Volk Racing was the name of was the first wheel made by Rays Eng. in the late 70's and it was also the world's first unwelded 3 piece mesh wheel too.
They don't just have Spec 2 testing. They have Spec 1 testing for all their cast wheels like the Gram Light series. I have a set of 57CRs that came with Spec 1 tags on each wheel. For being cast, the wheel is just high quality.
Just had my friend's TE37SL (18x9.5) delivered today in Europe..totalling 2600eur with taxes:p And this is the cheapest with air freight i could import. They are amazing both in finish and weigh just 8.2kg!!! My WORK D9R in same size are ~12.6kg!!
Rays also partners with the Earth Federation to make the RX-78-2 Gundam. The 10,000 ton forging process is the only way to make a true Gundam not some average GM BS. Cool video thanks for sharing can't wait to get my Rays Mazdaspeed MS-01S mounted on my Speed 3.
suggestion: You could leave links to each wheel/company you talk about in the description - like the machining process for example. Some people might've wanted to go look at that video and a link would be so convenient
I got my first ever set of genuine TE37SL this weekend. Been eyeballing for years and finally splurged. Feels good.
That was a year ago. How did you like the wheels?

I've been giving a 7 months lead time for some ce28 for my ctr fk8 !! I can't wait that long, it's ridiculous tbh
@@michaelsingh9035 I've been quoted 9 months for a set of ce28sl, in 6 months so far 🥲

Got my rays showing up tomorrow, gramlight 57cr, perfect time for this video to come out
I still have a set of Volk GT-N I bought in 2004.
LOVE Rays
Volks and Gram Lights are considered companies? I thought they were just different line ups all part of the Rays brand and all one company.
Tianxu Wan that’s what I thought too

Damn..look at all those nice wheels I can't afford lol
Mati Rs look into the used market, especially in Japan
I found that, in terms of car parts, generally, you get what you paid for. Lol

I can conform nor deny, but rumor has it that Thor is indeed the CEO of Ray's Engineering.

Fitment Industries Amazing! C5, C2 are legendary. CP035 and Dazz Matiz are lesser known and rare. Then the C2 Evo series Cheers
Konig is still the best for me when it comes to bang for buck. Performance wise, and looks wise.
Kentaro Honjo I never was a fan until I saw their flow formed wheels and now, I really want a set of Dekagrams
Can't agree more, I'd love a set of te37's but I can get hypergrams for like 1/4 the cost!
Rays for jdm

I literally looked up Top 10 Anime Fights -Jasper
I heard titan 7 also has a 10, 000 press. And the creator of this company was an ex Mackin industry ex manager
yes but they are really new, and very few people even know who they are.
If they made more 4x114.3 versions id already rock them
Who’s better made in Japan or made in China?
