Volk/rays wheel weights/pictures

Hey guys,

We carry Ray's/Volk and would be happy to assist anyone looking to grab a set for their 250!

What offset(s) do you recommend? With a lift? No lift?

In case in anyone was wondering for future reference, I just got back from Japan with a full set of Rays 08X in 18x8.5, +49. They measured at 21.6lbs on my home scale.

These are the Japanese version which isn't listed on the Rays website unless you search it from Japan (or a VPN maybe). The lip on these have chamfered design reminiscent of a beadlock rim, which may or may not affect the overall weight. Most likely negligible.

Those are pretty sweet. How'd you bring them back? And what did they cost you?

 

[D-Train]

Yeah.. liking those, and that weight!

Same question as Cozen.. did you pay duty/tariffs thru customs? Please post pics when mounted up/installed. TY!

Those 08x look awesome. I just put a deposit on some te37 xt from showstoppers. They have a decent selection

I cut down and connected two boxes together and reinforced the inside with extra padding, cushioning, and bracing, before strapping and wrapping them to get them under the maximum 62 linear inches maximum of standard luggage. This let me get 4 rims into two "luggages" and the 5th I put into a pretty large check in suitcase after wrapping and securing it. All came through with zero damage.

Yes, you have to go through customs, however, tariffs and duties will vary wildly based on the current political landscape and customs officer discretion. I can't disclose exact cost since my friend's dad who has a close relationship with a high end tuning shop help get me a special discount, but I will say they were significantly less than any MSRP you can get here through a USA seller.

I'll send pictures once they're mounted with Toyo Open Country AT3 EV 275/70R18 later this year.

I would love to see the look on the face of the person manning the X-ray machine when you sent that through

All of that goes against my 'never check a bag' travel mantra... however, for the cost savings, worth it.
