Volk Te37 legit check?
Does anyone know how to legit check these?

http://newyork.craigslist.org/que/pts/4992426681.html

I am suspicious because the rear are 19's with engravings of volk/rays and has the sticker but the 18 fronts dont have the sticker nor the engraving. Thoughts?

The ones without stickers are 100% replicas. Plus they are not even the same size

the 19's are legit. The 18's are fake. That set is worth like 1k tops.

I see there are barrel stickers on the 18s. I know some of the older 18 inch models didn't have any stampings on the front. The best way to make sure would be to weigh them, the replicas are a lot heavier.

Why are you guys saying the fronts are replicas? Im not saying you're wrong but I would like a reasoning. Not all te37s have the 3d letters around the spokes, they only had them on certain sizes prior to 2010

I looked up their weight for the 18s Measurespeed.com (not sure of accuracy-someone chime in), says an 18x8.5 te37 should be 17.2 lbs

They're not replicas, I have a full set of 18s from my S15 and they have all the stamps on the inside and weigh next to nothing, but have no embossed text around the outer rim.

yeah they seem to have the stickers but no stickers on the spokes or stampings.

this is the most common replica wheel out there. I wouldn't pay 2700 due to horrible widths and odd diameters.
