A 17” Te37xt would not be possible,

While the overall diameter of the wheel is 18”, the face itself is smaller within the step lip design. Tolerance is tight as is. I too wanted the 17”, but Rays would not produce a 17” XT.

Technically that's backwards. A step lip (standard mount) makes for more brake rotor clearance since the drop center is in front of the face opposed to being on the back side of the wheel. When the drop is in the back the barrel is smaller. For reference every Method 17" wheel is standard mount. Some show the step some don't but by being standard mount it allows the inside barrel to be larger to accommodate the rotor size. Velgen forged only does reverse drop and that's why they only offer 18" and larger.

So I think they could do it but may just be choosing not to.

Do you have a hub bore measurement for TE37XT M-Spec Wheel - 18x9.5 / Offset +20 / 6x135 BRONZE-BR ?

Im new to this, but I am having trouble resolving hub bore listed on the Rays site vs raptor hub bore measure of 87.1 .
https://www.rayswheels.co.jp/products/wheel.php?lang=en&wheel=TE37XT_M

Per their chart, the given hub bore is 86.9 for the 6x135 / Raptor Spec.

Not the *greatest* photo, but it did sit amongst the hub with no issues of it scuffing the wheel bore when I went to switch wheels a few times.

There is no hub bore size exactly for the raptor. It will be slightly bigger.

These are lug centric for the raptors.

The hub bore is actually smaller on the XT offerings (6x135 - Raptor and 5x127 - Jeep) compared to the Gramlight which was the 112 PCD amongst the other Volk offerings of the 6x139.7 and 5x150.

Shown here is the 112 PCD center cap that was already available for the 112pcd wheels (not meant, nor will not fit Jeep / Ford - Raptor and is still pending from Japan.

Any ETA on a mag blue setup?

Although Rays does mention special finishes on the Te37xt - there hasn't been a set yet. Just blast black / bronze / matte red between all the XT's between 6x139.7/5x150/6x135.

I have a Mag Blue on order for myself already. Hoping to see it by the end of the year.

What is the cost roughly for a set of the TE37xt’s? Love the look of the bronze set but not so much the center caps.

I got mine for $2800 for the set but that was BlackFriday. But I asked a few places beforehand and they were about $3100-3300 for the set. So assume that cost.

what are the tire specs of the tires when you had the rays mounted here?

Just wanted to create another wheel thread specifically for RaysMSC's offering of Raptor fitment. :biggrin: I've always been an enthusiast of JDM wheels, and have had Volk, Work, Advan's wheels on my previous truck.

With my second set coming in after a long 8 month wait, I figured I'd also contribute with a dedicated thread for these wheels. The Volk Te37xt's are supposed to land within the next month, so I can't wait to get those mounted!
