Varrstoen ES2 and RAYS TE37 Wheels for Sale. TE37 Style and Forged JDM Wheel Set.
Whether you are looking for Varrstoen ES2 wheels as a cost-effective TE37 style option or genuine RAYS TE37 wheels as the original forged JDM wheel that defined the six-spoke performance wheel category, both options are available at McClain Auto Part. We have been sourcing and selling quality wheels and exterior components for performance and enthusiast builds out of Cleveland, Ohio since 2009. The TE37 style wheels for sale category covers a wide range of builders, from budget-conscious sport compact owners who want the iconic six-spoke look to serious track and time attack drivers who want the genuine forged Rays Engineering unit.
Builders and enthusiasts come to us for these wheels for specific reasons. Some are building a sport compact or JDM-inspired street car and want the clean, aggressive six-spoke aesthetic of the TE37 design without the premium price of the genuine forged unit. Others are building a dedicated track car or time attack build where the weight savings of the genuine forged TE37 wheels make a measurable difference in unsprung mass and lap times. In addition, a group of JDM purists and collectors specifically sources genuine JDM TE37 wheels because the Rays Engineering authenticity, build quality, and historical credibility of the original are part of what the build represents.
Whatever the application, the goal is the same. A clean, properly fitted wheel set that performs the way the build requires and looks the way it is supposed to.

Understanding the ES2 and TE37 Wheel Options
The Varrstoen ES2 and the RAYS TE37 occupy different positions in the six-spoke performance wheel market. Understanding the differences between the two helps you choose the correct option for your build and budget before ordering.
The RAYS TE37 Original
The Rays Engineering TE37 is one of the most influential performance wheels ever produced. Rays introduced the TE37 as a dedicated motorsport wheel built from forged aluminum using their proprietary forging process. The result is a wheel that achieves exceptional strength at very low weight. A genuine set of forged TE37 wheels in a common sport compact fitment weighs significantly less than a comparable cast wheel, which produces real reductions in unsprung mass and rotational inertia.
The TE37 six-spoke design became the visual reference point for JDM sport compact wheel aesthetics in the late 1990s and early 2000s. Consequently, the TE37 has been copied, referenced, and replicated more than almost any other wheel design in the aftermarket. Genuine JDM TE37 wheels carry Rays Engineering authenticity marks and serial numbers on every unit. They are not cheap, but for a build where weight matters and authenticity is part of the goal, the genuine unit is the correct choice.
The Varrstoen ES2
The Varrstoen ES2 is a cast aluminum wheel designed in the six-spoke TE37 style. Varrstoen produces the ES2 as an accessible entry point into the TE37 aesthetic for builders who want the look without the premium cost of genuine forged Rays units. The ES2 is a cast wheel, which means it is heavier than the genuine TE37 at the same size. However, it offers the six-spoke design, a clean face finish, and multiple size and bolt pattern options at a price point that makes the aesthetic accessible to a wider range of builds.
The ES2 is a genuine Varrstoen product, not a low-quality no-name replica. Varrstoen has an established presence in the aftermarket wheel market and produces the ES2 to consistent quality standards. For a street build where the six-spoke look is the goal and weight savings are a secondary consideration, the ES2 is a practical and honest choice.
Choosing Between ES2 and TE37 for Your Build
The decision between the ES2 and TE37 comes down to your build priorities and budget. If weight is critical, the genuine TE37 forged unit is the correct choice. If the six-spoke aesthetic is the primary goal and budget is a consideration, the ES2 delivers the look at a lower cost. Tell us your build priorities when you call and we advise on which option in current inventory best suits your application.

The Varrstoen ES2 and RAYS TE37 wheels suit a wide range of sport compact and performance applications depending on size, bolt pattern, and offset. Common platform applications include:
- Honda Civic, Integra, and Accord, 4×100 and 5×114.3 depending on generation
- Nissan 240SX, 350Z, and 370Z, 4×114.3 and 5×114.3 depending on generation
- Mazda MX-5 Miata, RX-7, and RX-8, 4×100 and 5×114.3 depending on generation
- Subaru WRX and STI, 5×100 and 5×114.3 depending on generation

- Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution and Eclipse, 5×114.3
- Volkswagen Golf and Jetta, 4×100 and 5×112 depending on generation, confirm fitment
Before ordering, confirm your bolt pattern, center bore, offset, and brake caliper clearance. Wheel fitment is application-specific. Do not assume a wheel fits your car based on bolt pattern alone. Offset and center bore both affect whether the wheel sits correctly in the fender and clears your brakes.
Call us with your application and we confirm the correct fitment before you commit to an order.
Installation Notes
Offset and Fitment
Wheel offset determines how far the wheel sits inside or outside the fender. A lower offset number pushes the wheel outward. A higher offset pulls it inward. For most sport compact applications, confirm the offset of the specific ES2 or TE37 unit matches your desired fitment before ordering. Running the wrong offset produces fender rubbing at full lock or suspension compression, or an incorrect flush fitment that changes the car’s handling geometry.
Brake Caliper Clearance
Confirm brake caliper clearance with the specific wheel size and spoke design before ordering. Aftermarket big brake kits and stock calipers on larger displacement engines require more spoke clearance than smaller stock calipers. A wheel that fits correctly on a stock brake setup may not clear an upgraded brake caliper.
Hub Centric Fitment
Confirm the center bore of the specific wheel matches your hub diameter. A wheel with a larger center bore than the hub requires a hub centric ring to center the wheel correctly on the hub. Running a wheel without correct hub centering produces vibration at highway speed and places improper load on the lug nuts.
Torque Specification
Use a calibrated torque wrench and confirm lug nut torque in a cross pattern after installation. Torque specification varies by application. Confirm the correct torque value for your specific vehicle before installation. Do not final-torque wheels with an impact wrench.
