I thought Volk wheels had more stampings than just the valve stem ones?

Correct, real TEs have several stampings around the whole wheel, "monoblock", "forged", "rayseng", "made in japan" volk racing" should all be stamped on there.

Not if they were the early years production before they started to stamp them. I remember in the Honda day volk didn't have the stamp on the outer rim.

You guys got me paranoid now.. I'm pretty sure mines real as it's got all those stamp on the inside in between the wheel nut holes, I'll check the prod. Date to see what year it was made, brought these to fit on the skyline but wanted to see what'd it look like before I buy this set from a friend.

Yeah they are, but the set on his car, not so much.
Mine are genuine with fake stickers, Lol. Uh oh, don't kick me out of the Volks thread, haha.

Hey Guys, just did some digging and relieved to say my set is genuine, all pre2010 17/18" (except 19" as they all had stamps outside) look like mine without additional stamping on the outer rim besides te valve stem ones. Also the valve stem has to be centered with only 1 lug hole but NOT aligned with the center cap holes Aswell, and mine has all the stamps inside the hub centre + wheel detail stickers and serials with manufactured date aswell as it weighing almost half of the standard wheels, I was honestly abit worried before if mine were real or not. Here's a website with those info, hope this isn't spamming. http://jdmphasis.blogspot.com.au/201...-te37.html?m=1
Just want people out there to be aware of it and not fall for the fakes out there and get ripped off.
