Cutting-Edge RAYS Analysis Technology
- By combining advanced software analysis technology and performance-oriented manufacturing equipment, RAYS is able to create exceptionally lightweight and secure aluminum wheels. Utilizing data gathered from Formula One and other cutting-edge racing competitions, the company has established its own Research and Development department to analyze and refine their processes.
- By utilizing feedback from racing wheel development, data is consolidated for application in the development of street wheels. RAYS does not differentiate between racing and street wheels, and utilizes the same data and manufacturing techniques for both, supported by advanced analysis technology such as stiffness analysis.
- This technology used to produce Rays wheels leads to the perfect wheel by examining accompanied processes. A key objective of wheel analysis technology is also to thoroughly evaluate designs which would ordinarily be deemed impractical and guide them towards achievable designs.
- Wheels of superior performance and superior quality, for an economical price
RAYS Forging Technology
- The exceptional technical capability of RAYS puts them ahead of all other manufacturers of forged wheels worldwide. What sets them apart for their customers is their guarantee of performance and reasonable prices, along with their wide range of sizes and design proposals that continually evolve with new innovations.
- For many years, RAYS forged wheels have achieved the leading position in the Japanese market in terms of aluminum wheel sales (as reported annually by JAWA). It is not merely the amount of sales that makes them stand out, but their strong technology, which is demonstrated by the high rate of installation at circuits in Japan and overseas, as well as the many victories in the GT1 World Championship and domestic GT championships.
- RAYS strives to make high-performance forged wheels with various designs and sizes accessible to everyone globally. By competing in the high-stakes race scene and unifying racing and road wheel technology, the company aims to incorporate maximum performance into budget-friendly forged wheels.

ABOUT RAYS / VOLK RACING
THE CONCEPT IS RACING
- Rays participates in top-level races such as the F-1 and GT1 World Championships, as well as races in all categories beyond the competition level. Now, the field of activity is not limited to Japan, and they are actively participating in races in the United States and Europe.
- Racing is the forefront of development that Rays cannot do without, and above all, it is a place for serious competition. RAYS believes that in a race where everyone is aiming to win, deception can’t be done, and putting yourself in a competition where only the real thing is left can improve the performance of road wheels.
- The Rays have won titles in numerous categories, but winning is not the only goal. The most important thing is to gain the experience and know-how that comes from racing in tenths of a second, while proving that you are right by winning.
- At the wheel development site, the line between on-computer testing and physical testing is now almost non-existent. Experience is the key here. The numerical values that computers tell them are based on the data them have accumulated through their own experiences. It is nothing more than the result that appears on the screen through the filter of the computer. However, by using the constantly updated data, it is not impossible to create even lighter and stronger wheels that we thought had reached their limits.
- And that know-how is not limited to the category of sports wheels, but is equally distributed to all RAYS wheels. The know-how to achieve lightness and strength is utilized not only for high-performance forged wheels and cast sports wheels, but also for dress-up wheels that adorn the feet of sedans and minivans. For that reason, Rays stubbornly protect their in-house development and in-house production, above all, made in Japan. This is the meaning of Rays’ “Concept is Racing”.
ALL MADE IN JAPAN
- They want to provide all RAYS wheel users with maximum peace of mind and maximum satisfaction. And in order to send out wheels with absolute confidence, Rays is particular about Made in Japan. Interpret user needs, incorporate RAYS quality, and deliver to the market with reliable quality. The answer they came up with is their company’s integrated system* (All Rays), an all-Japan system.
- Rays has users in all categories, from users who have purchased commercial wheels to teams competing in races such as Formula One and GT championships. The performance required in each field is different, but we have aimed for a higher level by crossing technology and know-how in all wheels.
- In order to realize this quality supremacy principle, an in-house integrated system is essential. RAYS made in Japan has more value than words.
- At RAYS, they deliver wheels in all categories through our integrated system from planning to development, manufacturing, and inspection. Race wheels that fight in the harshest conditions, forged wheels that excel in performance, and cast wheels that shine brilliantly on the street are all made with the latest technology and the pride of Made by Rays.
