These are nice but not at all any big deal wheels nor the price impressive. Am I missing something?

These are discontinued lightweight wheels with a fan following. I like them but the only reservation I have is that the wheel on the lower left looks bent!

alright...

Ray's Engineering Volk SE37k wheels are double-forged meaning very durable/strong while being very, very lightweight for an aluminum alloy wheel.

I believe the weight for my SE37k front 17"x7" is ~14'ish lbs. & perhaps ~16'ish lbs. for my rear 18"x9". Props' to the previous owner of my current NSX who was the one who acquired them originally.

Also, they are arguably more stylish than Volk RE30's which are now readily available & popular amongst import-tuner performance circles.

The Yahoo-Japan auction's current price of ~120,000 Yen is good for 17/18 bronze SE37k's & center-caps w/ good-tread Bridgestone Potenza RE050A front tires & rear RE050A Pole Position tires (as-per the pics & sizes in the listing, since 215/40R17 only comes in RE050A - not RE050A Position & 265/35R18 only comes in RE050A Pole Position - not RE050A). That's approx. ~$1,341.27 (89.47 Yen / dollar), pre-shipping. These wheels don't come around often in NSX sizes (staggered width/diameter & applicable offset).

Dali Racing has 17/18 SE37k's w/o center-caps for $1935 +s/h

Reference: http://daliracing.com/v666-5/catalog/index_browse_part.cfm?focus=1164.

New (2) front Bridgestone Potenza RE050A 205/45R17 & (2) rear RE050A Pole Positions 265/35R18 would be ~$950+ & w/ tax, s/h, mounting-&-balancing perhaps close to ~$1,150.

I had a set of 17x7.5 and 18x9.5 on my black coupe.

Back in the day when I was dreaming of owning an NSX there was a gorgeous white one available locally with the WW kit and bronze SE37K's. It's was and still is one of the wheels I associate with a classy NSX. I just checked the auction description thanks to Google translate and it does appear one of the wheels is bent (shows as "wounded").

23 hrs left!

Assuming the seller agrees to ship these overseas, I think it would cost an arm and a leg :frown:

nice catch..

ouch i didn't notice the bent rims, thought maybe it was just some curb rash that can be easily fixed here. :frown: the sellers in japan almost never ship overseas so you would have to go with a third party, fortunately there are many used rims sellers here in the states. Rbmotoring is one i think some of you are familiar with, they also get their rims from yahoo auctions so probably wouldn't be much to have these rims on their next shipment. I always liked these rims, there was a thread on hondatech to bring these rims back, volk was looking into it last time i checked.

I'm pretty sure Mackin said they cancelled that idea.

Not bad but very early year 2000 style
