Maybe I'm missing something but.... I think the fact that the wheels are listed as Rays Volks and that the company has many forges and manufacturing plants points to the fact that they are one in the same:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ark Posted February 2, 2006 Share Posted February 2, 2006 Rays make wheels for loads of different brand names, including Volks, Nismo and TRD. What's the point in re-inventing the wheel if another company already has the machines, the knowledge and the capacity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobbeh Posted February 2, 2006 Share Posted February 2, 2006 I always thought it was G-reddy. Oh well, learn something new everyday. I just buy bits from companies I can pronounce Blitz, HKS, Veilside, easy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Wilson Posted February 2, 2006 Share Posted February 2, 2006 Rays Engineering are a large casting and forging plant in Japan, they cast and forge wheel rims under many different names, including Volks. They cast and forge other stuff, too, I seem to recall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
