does anyone have this setup?

 

ughhhhh...no pics that I have seen but that rear is going to look way out of place with the fronts

 

I saw the Volk Z at SEMA in 2003 with LE37's (the same basic wheel as the TE37) in this setup, and it looked great. I think Jeff at Evolution has photos of that car. I'm sure they were posted here at some point.

 

I'm assuming you picked that large rear offset to make sure you can get a BBK on the rears. Otherwise I would drop it down into the +20s.

 

Wouldn't a lower offset in the 20's push the wheel further out, thus allowing more more room for a BBK?

At any rate, I've had that setup, and the rear wheels stick out past the fender about 7mm too much. If I were to do those Volks again, I'd go with 8.5 +22, and 10.5 +35 with H & R 5mm spacers. This would would make the wheels/tires sit perfectly flush with the outside of the fenders, and the 245/35 tire would fit much better on the front wheel....it is too stretched on a 9.5" wheel. I'd also go with a 285/35 tire in the rear instead of the 275/35 that I had.

 

so with 10.5 + 35 r, how many inches lip do u get (if there's any)?

 

The lip on the rear is about the same as the +22. I recall Jeff at Evolution telling me that the +35 had a bigger lip, but less concave spokes.

 

thx alot for the inputs

 

true i had 19 x 9.5 all around with +35 fronts and +22 rear, and the lip was exactly the same, only difference was the concavity of the spokes,

 

What's an even better setup is 8.5 +22, 10.5 +35 - this is what the HKS 350Z featured in DSport magazine ran, and it looked awesome - the tires they ran were 255/35 fronts and 295/30 rears, Michelin Pilots Sports... and they fit perfectly with ZERO fender modifications... this is the setup I would recommend for LE's...

 

revivng from the dead......anyone have any pics of a te or le-37 10.5 +35? I want to see how much less concave it is than the +22?

 

It's flat, not concave, and looks crappy imho.

 

so iv'e heard... I'd still like to see for myself w/ pics.... The lemans sunset volk car had Le-37 10.5 +35 in the rear, and from the only pic i have seen, it looks very nice.

 

here is the sema volk car, looks good to me (they are concave and have lip)

it is my understanding that this particular offset 10.5 +35 has been discontinued, however, i may be wrong

also a picture of the wheel not mounted

actionjackson - you may be thinking about the stillen car with 9.5 +34 (those have flat spokes)

hope that helps

not exactly 19's but here is what the +35 offset looks like on a TE37.. very flat spokes.. I would imagine a 10" rim would mean you would have a little more lip than this..
