Ngonerogwu is on a distinguished road





And i'm here with the knockoffs.

Quality seems fine, not as light (these are 21lb).

18x9, 0 offset FN BFD.

I'm posting this because it's tough to find pics of 18's, and i know I looked at this thread a bunch when deciding.

Tires are 265/70r18 Wildpeak. They fit great, and don't rub (but i've already cut bumper and did BMC when I was running 285's on the factory wheels.

The lighter weight of this setup is noticeably better than the 285's and 17's. Saved about 15lb per corner.

Those actually look REALLY good, functional, and I’m guessing around 1/4 the price of TE’s.

Where I live in Canada, PCDs retail for $4600 including tax.

The BFDs can be had for around $1700 including tax so like 40% of the price.

Some guy is trying to sell me a set of PCDs with new duratracs for $4700 right now. With new tires, that's reaaaaaaally tempting.

I got a fantastic deal because of blemishes.

I refinished them myself, so I’ve got like 1/3 of that in them.

Did you just buy these? i haven't been able to get ahold of FN Wheels. I'm interested in buying some but they never have anything in stock on their website.

If any of your friends ever wants to sell their TE37's, please let me know! I have a set on my ISF and would love to compliment them with a set on the T4R.

Yeah, few weeks ago. Call or email them... their website is not updated very well.

They may be out of stock on these now though. Mine were old ones laying around that were blemished. All 4 were matte black... a few of them had scuffs, and all of them were various sheens and didn't match.

Dustin said they would have a new version of these coming out this spring.

Was supposed to go off roading for the first time a couple weeks ago and then of course COVID happened. Still had to try and get a little flex in.

Stock tire size. 265/65/18

Love the TEs! I want a set of 18s next. I was going to get them now, but got Advans last minute.

I've emailed and called...no response. Kind of wild.

So you had yours powder coated?

I did.

I used a bronze chrome base, with some added gold flake to brighten it.. and then a satin clear on top.

I don't know how this compares to the real volks. Pics on the internet compare favorably, but the combination of the gold metallic and the clear I used makes them change a LOT in different lights.

And they were powdered initially as well.. properly. They primed and everything, was quality work... and difficult to strip.
