Default How many of you got TE-37's?

Just out of curiosity, how many people on this board are ordering TE-37's, or have already? And when do you expect them to come in? Also, what sizes and what pricing are you all getting?

I plan to get them later on. 19x8.5 in the front and 19x9.5 in the rear. I've been getting quotes here and there... and they are about the same anywhere you go. Only thing that I'm debating right now is the color. Should I go polished silver or gunmetal. I love gunmetal wheels on silver cars... but I'm not sure how it would look on silverstone. Had my car been Chrome Silver, I would not even think twice about it.... but my car is Silverstone... so gotta thing a bit. Mabye I can have the spokes painted in gunmetal while leaving the lips polished silver. Just a thought.

Really? That's interesting.. I was thinking the opposite. If I had Silverstone i'd go for the gunmetal, but because I have chrome silver i'm going for the silver wheels. I thought the gunmetal would be too dark. From what I heard they are quite a dark silver..?

I had Victor photoshop a sunset 350z with those color rims to silverstone because I was curious of the same thing. As you can see, the bronze color just doesnt go. However the black with silver lip isnt bad!

Talking I ordered a set of TE37 19s!!!

19 X 8.5 and 19X9.5s. They should come in around late Dec or early Jan. This is cool cause it'll give me some time to save up! I believe the price quote range has always been $2300 to $2400 depending on color. Am I way off?

I have a Daytona Blue, and my rims are in Silver!

The black with silver lip is a LE-37T, NOT a TE-37... Those look good in the gunmetal w/ silver lip. HOWEVER, the TE-37's only come in one color for those who don't know. And you can't polish the lip unfortunately... at least not with a perfect result.

you are 100% correct. unfortunately i wanted polished lips on 19", and the LE only comes in 18"s.

so, i ordered te-37, 19x8.5 and 19x10.5.... in silver. this is because rays said the silver is just like the track rims, which i know matches!!

should be here january timeframe. i paid $2400 and change.

Interesting, from what i've been hearing lately, it seems that Volk should have them in by the end of this month, early December... So January might be a bit late..
