VOLK Racing VR.G2 Forged Wheels

The 1 piece forged VR.G2 is a relatively new wheel from Volk Racing and has quickly become one of the most popular performance street and track wheels from Rays Engineering. The G2 is the second generation of the TE37 wheel line, which started production over 10 years ago and has become one of the quintessential performance wheels. The evolution of this wheel still continues and preferred by many in racing as well as street performance enthusiasts. The VR.G2 was designed specifically cater to those with high-performance cars. It is also what is desired of the market today. There is a meaning to the spoke line elongated from the flange. There is also a significance of the shape and width of the rear rim.

Volk Racing is the premier wheel line from RAYS Engineering, incorporating all of RAYS' top-level technologies learned in Super GT, Touring Car racing, LeMans and Formula One into its trend-setting designs. Volk Racing wheel styles feature optimum caliper clearance, increased lip size and a wide combination of face contours to perfectly match the desired application. VOLK Racing is the exclusive wheel provider for the 2010 BimmerWorld race team. The exceptional strength and light weight of our VOLK wheels will amplify our E90's performance and get us to the top of the podium.

The material used to construct the wheel is hot forged 6061 aircraft grade aluminum. The forging process used to construct the wheel is known as RAYS Original Forging Technology (RM8000), and is done with multiple pressures of 5,000 kilograms per square centimeter followed by the 2nd slow forging process of 3,500 kilograms per square centimeter including the high pressure forging of the wheel's lip. This is a versatile process that creates a balance of light weight, strength, durability and rigidity. RAYS independently developed and patented the RM8000 forging process and designed the machines used to perfect the flow of metal ensuring structural integrity is maintained in the final wheel design. After this process, the RM8000 forging technology is used to uniformly press the wheel from the top, bottom, and sides in a high-speed spinning process that extrudes the wheel into its final form with only minimal machining required (further promoting structural integrity).

This process far surpasses JWL standards as well as RAYS original JWL+R Spec.2 standards. Also, the construction of the rear rim portion emphasizes enough strength and quality to be used with super low profile tires. The rear size has a deep concave component featuring rigidity, strength, and low inset still enabling the completion of an aggressive design.

Design, development, testing, and manufacturing of Volk Racing wheels is done in-house at RAYS Engineering resulting in a product that not only conforms to RAYS' strict internal JWL + R standards but also meets RAYS' goals toward the advancement of the "motorsports culture" and the satisfaction of high-end customers who demand wheels that are strong and light.
