The NE24 may even surpass the famous TE37
The representative of RAYS’ sports wheel brand VOLK RACING is the TE37 series. VOLK RACING TE37 was created in 1996 and since then has undergone numerous updates. The new generation “NE24” series may surpass such traditional masterpieces.
The N name, reminiscent of Group N
The “N” in the name was inspired by the “Group N” racing category, where modification areas are extremely restricted and the cars compete under regulations that are closest to those of production cars. It is a completely new evolution line following the TE, CE and ZE series that VOLK RACING has developed up to now, and is an innovation in sports wheels. Hot models are being introduced into the C-segment by domestic and foreign automakers, and power battles are being waged these days. The NE24 is a wheel that can face such a movement head-on. This is the mission of the NE24.
This is a departure from the traditional VOLK RACING style
The NE24 adopts a 2×4 asymmetrical design, in which the 360° disc surface is divided into four parts so that the 21° narrow-angle and 69° wide-angle triangles are next to each other to achieve the strength, lightness and stress dispersion required of a sports wheel at a high dimension.
This innovative model focuses on function, ensuring more rigidity and strength than ever before against road inputs. The silhouette with ultra-thin spokes and large openings ensures sufficient volume in the centre fastening area and rim joint. The spoke ends also incorporate a triangular fairing motif, creating a strong and innovative shape based on the latest rigidity theory.
CLUB SPORT with strobe design decals
In the midst of all this, a new model, the CLUB SPORT, has been created for the NE24, the hope of sports wheels. The body is a hard-edged gloss black colour, with decals showing two different designs, crimson and pure white, which are visible on the outer circumference.
The ‘Sticker 1’ creates a line that rotates in the direction of travel like a strobe when the car starts to run, attracting the viewer. The knurling on the bead seat minimises traction loss and tyre balance changes even in tough driving conditions such as drifting competitions.
There is also a “Sticker 2” for serious sports drivers. This one is designed to be affixed to both ends of the air valve, so that the air valve position can be instantly recognised. It can also be used in combination with the strobe design of Sticker 1, so why not enjoy arranging it?
