Exclamation *** 19" +12/+22 Magnesium Blue/Diamond Black TE37 Shoot on My Black G ***

So after 5 anxiety-ridden months of waiting for my custom Volk TE37s to come in they finally showed up on my doorstep this past week. The TE37 has been my favorite wheel for over ten years now and I finally took the plunge and got them exactly how I wanted them. I knew I wanted to get the 9.5" +12 offset for the front and 10.5" +22 offset for the rear but I was deeply troubled with which color I should get. I simply couldn't decide between Diamond Black or Magnesium Blue. After much thought and deliberation I decided that I could have my cake and eat it too! I know what I decided upon isn't for everyone but I could really care less. I don't make any decisions on my car for anyone but myself and I think I pulled it off quite nicely! I decided to get a different color on each side. The fact is that you never see both sides of the car at the same time and it really gives the car a truly sinister dual personality!

So I got the wheels mounted this past Wednesday then I proceeded to spend ~16 hours on the paint on Thursday, Friday and Saturday followed by a fender rolling yesterday. I finally got around to a nice photo shoot with my buddy Gabe (gqong) this morning and needless to say, I'm very pleased!

Big thanks to Chris from F1Motorsports for the wheels, Gabe for the pics and XXTuning (formerly Eternal Motorports) for the fender rolling!

Enjoy guys and let me know what you think!

I like the G but those skewed shots of the *** just look awful to me. It looks like the rear tires are hidden inside the car.

Seriously time to drop further. My +12 front/rear setup is begging for it to.
Look at offset z's car. Great colors tho.

Diamond black for me. Excellent idea with the color swap.
