Default LE37 Pic request

Guys & girls,

I'm looking for a couple pics of Volk LE37T wheels, preferably silver and kinda' close-up. I want to see some 18" 8½F/9½"R in both common offsets: +22/+22 and +30/+35.

I'm trying to get an idea of exactly what size lip they have, how concave the spokes.

Thanks in advance,
Dave

Thanks but not quite what I'm looking for. Those are 19" 8½/10½". Because of the larger diameter, the spokes look a little different on the 19s vs. the 18s.

Yeah, but only on the 10½" rears.

Here's my dilemma. As you can see in the pics, the 9½ fronts don't have that big of a lip. I want a decent amount of lip but want to stick with 18" wheels. They are only available up to 8½/9½. Since they don't have that big of a lip, then there's not much use in having LE37s (with polished lip), I might as well get TE37s. If I go with TE37s, I can get 9½/10½ in 18" so they would have a nice lip, right. What's the use of having all that lip if it can't be the polished one of the LE37.

Damn it Volk, make the LE37s in the same sizes as the TE37s!

I don't have any pics of my LE-37Ts (18 * 8.5 +22 front, 18 * 9.5 +22 rear), but I can tell you that the actual lip is about the same size on front and rear. What makes the rear really stand out, though, is the concave spokes. It gives the wheel a very unique, '3-dimensional' look that's hard to describe, and that doesn't really come across well in pictures.

I'll see if I can snap some pictures in the next couple of days.

Thanks bubble, but with no size and offset listed it doesn't tell me much.

I know Volk makes a nice fat lip on 19" LE's for the front with a +12 offset-but that is a 9.5" width and in 19". If you want a lip on both, and want 18's run a +12 front and +22 rear(if they make those offsets in 18"), but you'd need to go to a 9.5"/10.5" set-up. If its possible it would look sick!

I wonder if a +12 offset in 19 x 9.5 in the front would clear a Rotora 14" BBK.

No +12 in 18", +22 is the lowest.

I have the 18's and the way these are shaped most people think they are 19's. Great thing about 18's is you have more tire options and your tires cost much-much less!

I have 355 Rotora's too, the 19 x 8.5 +22 offsets fit great. Just tell them what mods you have when you buy and try them on before you mount the tire! Once the tire is on, you own the wheel!
