A dumpster backdrop how classy.

I guess there's a certain contrast of beauty and...dumpster.

Those pictures are pretty sharp man! And it was VOLK who made a similar wheel to BBS(strict adherance to the factual pecking order of wheel makers)

VOLK is going under BTW, but nobody seems to talk about it.

Ok, i had seen the bbs' before but didnt know which came first, i still prefer Rays made wheels if i have a choice. So is just the Volk name going under, or Rays engineering entirely?

Rays has already taken a dump, cutting half it's production lines and farming out the work to the usual suspects..taiwan, China, etc

Many goods are produced in these countries, so to say it's a bad thing would not be PC, but truth is, the company had higher build standards than it does now, and you'll have hell on your hands trying to get a dealer to warranty a wheel for you, because the dealers know the company are not going to back the product with the same vigor

PS: I would still buy Rays wheels, even at the risk of being left out in the cold if I came upon a defect. Dealer resources allow me for greater risk/less cost, but still I would be wary and only buy from the biggest and most powerful wheel retailers, who would likely have the greatest amount of leverage with the manufacturer.

I wouldnt recommend the dealer, just go to a junkyard or get one off a wrecked zenki, they were factory aero on alot of usdm 89-90 240's, pretty easy too find.
