Volk racing TE 37 on my tacoma

Diamond Black best color IMO.

 

Great color. I'd love to see the video on how they paint them and cure them

 

The red part can’t be removed. I wanted to take it out too. Not running any hub rings. No vibration going up to 60mph.

Hey all in this thread, I know that this may not be the right place to do this but i figured i'd give it a shot.

I live in the Bay Area, CA and now am planning to do a lift, tires, alignment, CMC (if needed), and trimming once my wheels come in. With that being said, I want to make sure that I go somewhere where I can get everything done and potentially even buy everything there. Does anyone know of any reputable shops in the Bay Area that you can recommend? I tried in the NorCal thread but it doesn't get many answers so i figured i would try here since i'm sure there are some on here that live in the bay. Let me know!

 

do you have tools? where in norcal are you

 

Surprised you didn't get anything there. If you need a one stop shop, I've been to SWAT in Fremont. They do decent work and have a bunch of Toyotas sitting outside in their lot. You can order through them and they install or just bring your parts in. They can do it all. But they are on the pricey side.

For more reasonable rates, hit up on them mechanics on the NorCal thread. Mark can do you lift, CMC, pinch welds, and lighting.

 

Bertw192 is right, I do not have any center caps on mine, they are just the factory cover. I did not paint mine though, might just be the lighting. I believe plenty of Wheel Vendors are selling the center caps, but most are backordered right now if I am not mistaken.

 

@greenEFSI and I

 

depends on what tools you are referring to and i'm in hayward.

 

Kinda want white ones now

 

Snapped this at SEMA

 

Uh Oh! @WrecklessAbandon you've got competition!

 

I have dibs on white ones!!! Everyone knows that






Besides....I think he is talking about tires

 

Did you get any info about weight and wait?

 

I dig it.

 

A PSA for any who already do not know - Vivid Racing might be the diarrhea version of wheel vendors.
I know of four people now in the US who ordered te37 xt's from other vendors after my order date that have already received their wheels.
I ordered on February 15th and they keep saying, "the manufacturer says your ship date is September 30th, which then became October 29th, which has now become the end of November.

Not even a crazy color or anything special - Bronze te37xt M spec 17" -20

It seems the average wait time is the expected 4-7 months, even with the crazy port problems... I'm going on almost 9 months now...

Is 9 months uncommon or am I being impatient? Or both
Wish I had found this thread prior to ordering from Vivid...

 

TBH I'm messaged showstoppers on here, facebook and emailed and haven't heard back anything in a week and a half.

 

Can you tell me more about these? I've been running rays for almost 5 years w/o rings and I have center caps and haven't had any issues. Would it be wise to run them?

 

9 months isn’t uncommon but I don’t think anyone faults you for being impatient. I, and people I know well have waited that long for Volks.
