Everything You Need To Know About What Might Be The Most Popular Wheel Ever

Debuted in 1996, Volk Racing’s TE37 has become the brand’s most popular design. The wheels are known for being incredibly strong and having the ability to dissipate heat well due to the special blend of metal. They’re also lightweight and stylish, delivering top-tier performance and quality. Many tuners see it as the best wheel for both the track and the street, elevating the TE37’s status.

The Origin of the Volk Racing TE37

Made in Japan by Rays Engineering, the TE37 was created with a clear goal: to be lightweight, durable, and stylish enough for the street. The original 15-inch model was forged from a single piece of aircraft-grade aluminum and weighed just 3.7 kg. It quickly became a favorite among car enthusiasts, and the lineup has expanded significantly over the past 30 years.

Here at Vivid Racing, we have more than 2000 Volk Racing wheels in stock and ready to ship, including limited edition colors such as Arms Grey and Racing Green. This guide breaks down the differences between Volk Racing TE37 models and helps you choose the right fit for your vehicle and driving goals.
