I did a search but found nothing.

I'm trying to pick up a set that's 45mm...I was told by the guy that I would need a 2mm spacer in the front to clear the caliper. Is this really so? Would it fit just fine w/ out spacer?

Thx.

 

te37's(16x7) don't come in 45mm offset. it's 42mm(or is it 43? can't remember).
no spacers needed.

 

I run +42 offset with zero problemos on the stock calipers.

 

Set-up you want:
16 x 7 @ 42mm
215/45-16s Azenis
No spacers needed.

 

thx

 

Hope this picture helps... I have these on my R... no problem... with 205/50/16 Falken Azenis

They seem to make them in 205-55-16 but not 205-50-16.</TD></TR></TABLE>

Yes, they do... the tire is mounted on my TE37s... I guess they're only made or offered in Japan, but I've got them though....

 

Here's more proof of the 205/50/16 Azenis... a link and a picture of one of my wheels when I first got them... and all you have to do is just save a copy of my picture and adjust the brightness/contrast to see the size of the tire since the picture is kind of dark...
