Permanent rim decals, or designs around the rim flange should be optional as well.

I'll take this a step further: Rays needs to ditch the Saga casting and give us the SL/RT casting back.

...but I think the engraved spoke is cool.

You failed reading comprehension in school, didn?t you. That?s not what I said at all. Maybe you misunderstood my tone over text... I didn?t take it personally at all, I didn?t even think it was referring to me at all. I just said that for nearly 10 years, all I ever did was search, even in the beginning. I read all of the threads with members getting pissed at the OP for not searching and learned from it. I simply stated that I didn?t even ask my first question until years and years after first joining. I was agreeing with you lol. That?s it.

It was almost 20yrs ago that I graduated high-school, I?n pretty sure I passed all classes of the English language, but I could be wrong? Your post came off as if I was referring to you or any of your posts, I.e. guilty conscience. Regardless, I?m not sure why it had to become personal? Everyone is so sensitive these days...

Yeah I totally agree man. Just wanna chill and talk cars, not shit lol Reading back I can see how it came off that way. I can?t tell you how many chicks I dated where it went south because they misunderstood my tone through text lol damn technology

I do like the machined logo on the spoke. I'd definitely pay the extra to get the Advan GT Premium for that feature.

Also, the Saga has grown on me a bit, but the older designs and especially the OG bronze is hands down better looking.

So you're one of those 2008 bandwagon jumpers that ruined the scene. K-gotcha.

Also, isn't having two accounts a rule violation?

SupaDoopa · 07-13-2020, 08:44 AM

Having two accounts isn't just a rule violation, it's fucking stupid.

I've seen them on display at TAS and R's Meeting and it always kills the idea of getting a set. It's like right around the point where I might consider it I get the chance to see them at a Rays booth and go "...yeah nah."

The Advan booth is always rad...but I'm a dick that only likes 17" on SChassis. Advan gives just about zero fucks about anything sub 18".

I think the SL casting is the best. It has the same shape as the OG but is 'better' according to Rays. I just got some wheels in a group buy that utilized the SL casting but came in blast bronze....the latter of which I am not a fan of.

More on the LuckyLabo shop. I got the full set of 'Swing Hand Pop' air fresheners for about $40 after shipping. At his current $9.99 price, you're paying double. The price before was $15/pc.

...and here's a coffee from a vending machine, where it's STILL marked up for individual sale. They can be had for less than 100JPY at the grocery store.

I posted this so you guys can know what to search and avoid sellers like LuckyLabo. if you want these, order them yourself and sell the extras for a fair price to your friends.

I'm sure you mean forging. The Saga is not just different, it's a superior wheel, which has always been the point of the TE37, which makes it awesome IMHO.

Also... you can still buy SL's, haha.

You are 100% correct, but I still don't like how it looks like a glorified XT7 now lol.

...and SLs are not available in all sizes anymore and are scheduled to be discontinued.

gbaby2089 · 07-20-2020, 07:06 PM

In no world does a TE37 Saga look like an XT7.

deolio · 07-20-2020, 07:26 PM

i could see it looking like a 6-spoke advan gt maybe

Rays Engineering actually makes the Advan GT/ GT Premium for Yokohama Wheel. So, it's kind of like a 5 spoke Saga (with a different lip design of course).
