Sorry, i'm kinda new with the wheel sizes and stuff. so, a good look would be 18x9.5 in the front and 18x10.5 in the rear, and a +22 offset in the front and rear? J/w

Here's a quick shot of mine at a local show last week... I sold my Stance GR+ to buy the wheels, so excuse the wheel cap and also I have the Veilside V1 sides and Top secret rear underfin sitting in my basement waiting to be installed... So enjoy my work in progress !!!

For the TE37, here are some general guidelines for sizes in our offsets:
- 18" will have more concavity, and no cast in lettering. Very small lip. To me, it's a great look!
- 19" will have flatter faces with cast in lettering.
- The rears in 10.5 with a +22 or a +12 will have a nice fat lip.
- +22 will be easiest to fit wider tires, if you plan on dropping much a simple fender roll will get you the clearance you need. I ran 285 on a +22 rear with a 2" plus drop with nothing more than a fender roll
- +12 will be more "flush" to the body and will require more work to fit a wider tire. If you want the "hellaflush" look go +12 with a 255 tire.
- The fronts in 9.5 have a big difference in look for a +22 vs a +12
- +22 will have a small lip, but plenty of room for a fat tire. 255 front tire or larger is generally fine.
- +12 will have fat lip that matches the rear lip, however there are clearance issues and you will be running a 245 or 255 max front tire, with the possible need for adjustable camber front a-arms if you are lowering. Also, if you have the stock Brembo brakes and want to run the +12 fronts, you will need a 3mm spacer for brake clearance. If you are going for "hellaflush", you will want this offset with maybe a 225 - very "aggressive" look and spacers will push it out more.
- Another option for the front is to run a 10.5 +22 up there... you will have the same fitment issues as a 9.5 +12 and I think need the 3mm spacer for Brembo. In essence, a 10.5 +22 is a 9.5 +12 with the extra inch in width added to the inboard of the rim, if that makes any sense.
- The rears in 10.5 with a +22 or a +12 will have a nice fat lip.
