This new fake TE-37 might be worse then the notorious fake Volk stickers. Not only is this wheel a straight rip off,  but JLB Motorsports has reached an all time low by etching false terms on their new “signature” wheel.  Take a close look at the etching:  “Design by Japan,” “monoblock,” and “forged.”  What exactly does “design by Japan” mean?   Be warned, this wheel is NOT a forged monoblock construction. The wheel is cast and as as fake as can be.  JLB argues the etching is for “aesthetic purposes.” LOL

    To cast = To form (liquid metal, for example) into a particular shape by pouring into a mold.
    To forge = a. To form (metal, for example) by heating in a forge and beating or hammering into shape.
    b. To form (metal) by a mechanical or hydraulic press.

    Monoblock = in engineering, refers to a casting or forging which is made in a single piece, rather than being fabricated

    soooooo whats the diff then?

    either way seems like a nice wheel to me for the cheaper price
