I remember seeing a post about someone having the TE37 Drag Wheels in 13's and the actual wheel had a offset that allowed the 13" rim to fit over the 99-00 SI/94-01 GSR brake calipers... Just viewed the thread about a week or so ago and now I can't seem to find the thread if my life depended on it... Anyhow, sorry for the huge picture below... Can anyone confirm what the exact wheel name is for these wheels (can't return them so I want the correct purchase name) and if they'll clear the 99-00 Si brakes... I'm thinking if I don't buy bogarts, I'll get these in 13's all the way around (or 15's if I have to)...

 

yep, thats a te-37 drag wheel...

my buddy has a set that clear the 99si brakes... but I dont remember what the offset of his are....

 

Here's a link to a company that sells them!!

Great thanks... I haven't called them yet, though does anyone know if 13x8 is the only size they offer in that particular wheel?

 

gangsta!

 

those are sick! If I could afford them I'd definately rock em' . . . but I dont so it'll probably be the lensos. I think they also clear stock Si calipers in a 13".

 

why dont you just get some lenso's? they clear the brakes and are a fraction of the cost...

Also, getting Volk to make you the wheels if the correct offset isn't always as easy as placing an order. There should be some in the right offset floating around though

 

TE37 drag for 4-100 only come 1 offset which is +20et...anymore Volk questions, ask away...I AM VOLK KING on the east coast...muahahhaha

 

is it benificial to run the 13" TE Drag wheel on the rear, or just buy a 14" regular TE37?

 

that looks really good

 

No...there is really no need for the 13x8 in the rear...its just gonna stick out and look like a lowrider

You can any regular size TE in the rear

Doubtful. There was a thread in the ITR forum about 14" wheels that would clear.

 

There is a shop here in Toronto selling a set with sliks and skinnies. They are white I don't know there number but here is there web site. http://www.iactech.com

 

that was my thread last week about the fitting 13" drag wheels over the si brakes.

lensos
bogarts
welds
rota 13"

they all fit but bogart need spacers and not sure about the welds. i would love a set of the te-37, but all i need is the drag wheels now and slicks and really dont care what wheel i get and if its used. im going with 22X8X13's of course.

 

the offset of the +20 will clear ITR brakes but the problem is, the wheels only come 4-100

 

weld magnums, depending on the offset, need a spacer

here's mine on stock DX brakes with NO spacer...sadly, i don't even know what backspace i have

or you mean people only stock the 4x100 and 5x114 would be some very special order business??

Yep, I learned this the hard way. I ordered an odd size I think it was in early november and I am still waiting on em. They havn't even got to the US yet. Now that ive waited so long, I don't even think I want them anymore.

waiting sucks, but i couldn't roll any other wheel on any of my cars

 

awesome!! more pictures please... I like the lenso's... I think the only thing thats kinda turning me away from them is the fact that they don't offer a rear skinnie and I'd like to run a matching set this year with rear skinnies..

 

anything custom fitment from Volk takes minimum 90 days lead time.....my suggestion...dont ever order soemthing they dont have

 

well its not that it was custom, its just that Mackin doesn't stock it.. 15X7.5 +43 offset is in their catalog. Its been about 120 days I think. oh well.

 

oh the imfamous TE37 15" +43 5-114.3....keep waiting...i had a customer order his last Sept... still havent gotten them
