Default te-37's

came across a good deal on some gun metal volk te-37's

they are 17's w/ an offset of 48 and also come with toyo proxes with approx 70% tread life left.

i told my self i wouldnt go any bigger than a 16 on the car.. but for the price it is kind of hard to pass up...

should i do it fellas?... im really liking the look on JUN R's car with his 17's

Personally, I would. The TE-37's are a pretty lightweight rim to start off with, so I could probably justify the size. As long as you're not having rubbing issues than go for it.

... lucky bastard

Maybe this will help with your decision..... these are 16s with a +42 offset.

It's preference and your decision. I wouldn't go bigger than 15" but that's just me and mine have never been driven on the street in the 5 years I've owned them. I bought mine for a great deal and a purpose. It depends on what you want them for.

Best of luck.

I would only do it IF the TE37 fit the stoptech front brake kit (floating rotors FTW). Otherwise there is no point..

Stolen pics from Stoptechs site... :

How do you guys get the 17's to fit without rubbing, do you roll the fenders ?

Use 205/40/17. The diameter is almost identicle to a 205/45/16, or a 205/50/15
