Volkalikes?

[MazdaManic5]

Do they make a knock off of Volk TE37? OR do y'all know of a nice gun metal rim w/ a polished lip 5 or 6 spoke? Thanks
Pictures are welcome

konig rated R's are fake te37's, no clue if they fit though.

Welcome to the wonderful world of Rota

they dont make a 5lug version of the grids yet.

He didn't say it had to fit a Protege

Actually they do, but they only come in WRX fitment (5x100) & no larger than 16" (just like Slipstreams).

wow right on fellas! Yeah i saw the rota but if they would fit a protege5 that would be swell! What rims out of the three would you buy?

5Zigen Super 6 Hyperblack

Nakayama 6 Speed Hyperblack

Tenzo R Mean 6 Gunmetal

Talk to Rishie or one of his local reps...they should be able to answer all of your wheel ?s. I like some of the TenzoR wheels because some of them (NOT the Shu) are kinda rare & look really nice in different colors.

I am biased toward Rota, but if you could get those RO_JAs, I'd snatch them up in a second.

Go with the real deal. Knockoffs (Tenzo, Konig, etc.....) are weak and tend to bend very easily. Might as well do it right the first time around. Save up the money, and get real TE37's.

i dont think those rotas look like the volks...just my opinion

I'm planning to get the Nakayama 6-Speeds but in silver.Those look a little like the TE37s but w/o a lip and slighty fatter spokes.

 

[MazdaManic5]

i'm looking for the look not extreme performance so bending isn't a problem. Thanks for your info. I;ll try to talk to rishie.
Any autornd reps in Nebraska? NEED ONE?!?!

Not totally true. I bought some rims off of ebay over a year ago(RS Limited) and I have not had any problems with them.

However I still agree with you, if you have the money to do so, go with the real deal. Even if you don't have the money now you should try saving up. You will be glad you did.
