RAYS VOLK RACING TE37 SAGA S-plus Forged Wheels
RAYS VOLK RACING TE37 SAGA S-plus — The Evolution of a Racing Legend
Since its debut in 1996, the VOLK RACING TE37 has defined what a purpose-built forged wheel looks like. The TE37 SAGA S-plus is the latest evolution of this lineage — a 1-piece forged monoblock wheel certified to RAYS' proprietary JWL+R Spec 2 standard, which demands roughly twice the structural test load of standard JWL. Available in 15" through 20" diameters, the TE37 SAGA S-plus combines motorsport-grade rigidity with the refined aesthetics demanded by modern high-performance street builds. The "S-plus" (Sport Plus) designation reflects a comprehensive minor revision of the 2016 TE37 SAGA, with every spoke geometry, rim profile, and hub tolerance reviewed and optimized.

The S-plus Evolution — Engineering Context
The original TE37 SAGA was introduced in 2016 as a complete redesign of the TE37 family for the modern performance car era. The S-plus update goes further: RAYS engineers reviewed every structural element — spoke cross-section geometry, rim hook profile, center bore tolerance, face depth — to increase safety margins against the higher loads imposed by today's more powerful, heavier performance vehicles. The new 19-inch size added with the S-plus generation was a direct response to OEM fitment trends: sports cars that once shipped on 17" or 18" wheels now commonly leave the factory on 19" or 20" units. The TE37 SAGA S-plus meets them there.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is JWL+R Spec 2?
JWL+R Spec 2 is RAYS' own internal standard, requiring approximately twice the structural test load vs. standard Japanese JWL certification. Every TE37 SAGA S-plus passes fatigue and impact resistance tests well beyond industry minimums.
Is it track-safe and street-suitable?
Yes — the TE37 SAGA S-plus is used in both circuit competition and daily-driver builds worldwide. The standard MM and BR finishes are durable for road use; OP-2 colors add further personalization.
TE37 SAGA vs. TE37 SAGA S-plus — what changed?
The S-plus (2022+) revised spoke geometry, rim profile, and face depth for higher safety margins and heavier modern vehicles, plus added a new 19" size not available on the original 2016 SAGA.
What center caps are available?
Optional RAYS center caps: VR CAP MODEL-01 Low (MM/BR), VR CAP MODEL-01 Hi (MM/BR), VR CAP MODEL-37 (BR/BK-Almite), and MODEL-01 Low/Hi in optional OP-2 colors.

Wheel Care
The TE37 SAGA S-plus features a shallow 6-spoke open-face geometry with narrow inter-spoke channels — accessible for general washing, but the sharp rim-to-spoke junction at the lip forms a persistent brake-dust trap. Use a dedicated spoke-root brush to reach the recessed areas behind the J-nut caps at the hub face, where iron particles accumulate fastest on track-driven builds.
- Wash with a pH-neutral wheel cleaner and soft microfiber or lambswool mitt
- Avoid abrasive cleaners, high-acid iron fallout removers, or wire brushes on spokes
- Rinse thoroughly after wet-weather driving to remove road salt and brake dust
- For Bronze/Almite (BR) finish: the anodized surface is durable but uncolored areas may exist by design — avoid prolonged chemical exposure
- Inspect for kerbing damage or deformation; structural damage requires professional assessment
- Re-torque lug nuts to OEM specification after the first 50 km of driving on new wheels
