Our customer recently sent us 2 complete sets of wheels for refinishing. This is how a (very) used wheel looks like after chrome plating. Better than new!

Recently, a customer inquired about getting a set of Rays Gram Lights 57DR wheels for his BMW E36. While Rays does offer many 18"+ 5x120 fitments, 17x9 is a far more optimal size for the E36 chassis.

Both happen to be for the 10th Generation Honda Civic platform, and both are 18x9.5 +38 in Mag Blue finish. On the left, we have the Volk TE37SL - a classic design made with the original "OG" TE37 mold. This one is specifically sized for the FK8 Honda Civic Type R and is offered in the highly desirable concave profile. In terms of concavity, we can see that...
