Default PPW(white) with Bronze Volk TE37(Pictures)

I ordered my wheels a month or so ago. I ordered them from Ryan(?) @350zforums.org, process was smooth, had some issues with my CC but we worked that out and got the rims out regardless.

19 inch Volk TE37
Front
8.5
+29 off set

Rear
9.5
+22 off set

Toyo T1
245/35

275/35

My Car with 17 inch 5zigen in hyper black...(found a curb in a rain storm... needed to replace my bent stock wheels with something that didnt cost 800 per wheel at that time)



My car with a front wheel installed complete with jack and tires comparing the new vs old:



Car is clean...relative to how it was...however:



from the front:



from the side for people who like to look at off sets and that stuff on the internet...I would rotate the image but as this is a mac I am current using, I dont know how to do that:



front again:

I have a set of Tein S types...

I like the way the car looks but I wouldnt mind the drop. I would be out installing them right now but I lack the jack to get the job done as the floor jack I was using hardly fit before the drop.

In any case, there it is without my center caps which are on their way right now. Thanks Ryan(?).


Comments? How does it look?

Should I jack my car up and put 2x6s under the wheels and go ahead and put the teins on?

MUCH better than your old wheels. Nice rim/color choice, your car looks great.

They were in stock is the primary reason. I was a little bit worried about how it would look but it ended up looking better than expected.

with the 2x6 under the wheels you should be able to get the jack under after the drop. works for me and ive got hotchkis springs that have a similar drop to the tiens.

Looks GREAT! I actually have the same setup (PPW + Bronze TE37s).

Just be VERY VERY careful with these wheels . . . they have diamond cut lips and are anodized, not painted or powdercoated. If you curb one (or in my case, have Valet curb all 4), there is really nothing that can be done to repair them (without having them completely refinished a different color).

All you need now are some bronze Volk center caps . . . which I will most likely be parting with since I am having my wheels redone black. Let me know if you are interested - they are like new.
