Default Request: 18" TE-37 w/ aggresive Offset ?????

I've looked all through the Volk thread and 18" wheel thread and couldnt find anything.

Is anyone running the TE-37's in 18" with a good aggresive offset...Like +15 or +12 ??

I have yet to see someone properly execute this set-up. A good aggresive offset and suspension.

Even if its not your car it will work. Thanks !

Funny you're looking for the same photo as I.
Considering purchase and wanted to understand
what I was getting in to... Maybe we'll find out.

Considering +15 and +17...

^ well if its TE-37's your looking for like me, then they only come in +22, +15 and +12. ( +22 not being aggressive enough for 18's IMO )
Im looking for +15 or +12 set-ups.

Why am I not suprised... I guess thats cuz nobodys running this set-up. CE-28's would work in these sizes as well.
I would get the idea as they are very similar. Anyone ????

TAZ - You might be incorrect regarding the fitments. See Andy from Performance in the vendor wheel section. He has a set of Merc te37s
in the offsets I mentioned. Hmm...

I always wanted a set of jdm lmgt4's in black with those killer offsets
that look soooo nasty. I was never able to get them - mostly due to
inability to locate and timing, not finance. When I saw Andy's te37s
I thought I could get a similar look. This was,,, until I realized no one
actually runs these sicko offsets. I am having a hard time with the
purchase, because I need to know the look I will acheive.

The offsets I mentioned are in 18x9.5 and 18x10.5

Here is a offset chart from there web site.

For 18" TE-37's

7 1/2J ○+48 5 100 75,000
★+30, +40, +48 114.3
8 1/2J ◆▲★+22, ◆▲★+30, ★+40, +50 5 114.3 77,000
9J ▲★+40 5 114.3 78,000
9 1/2J ★+12, ◆★+22, ★+35, ★+40 5 114.3 79,000
10 1/2J ★+15, ★+22 5 114.3 81,000

So to successfully run the most aggressive offset-

9.5 fronts would be +12
10.5 rears would be +15

Now I know that other volk wheels like the sf's come in +17. But Im pretty sure the TE's stick to +12, +15, +22 and so on.

I thought there were no pics of the TEs actually on a car.
How much got paid for the used bronzes - if you don't
mind? The shot of the 240 is a good visual reference, but
flics on your Z will put a lot to rest for me. The rpfs are dope
too.

+15 and +17 is hardly what I would call agressive, I truly wish volk would offer lower offsets closer to zero

well if you want 0 offset there are 2pcs stuff that can get you there..
But if you want the 1pcs forged wheels then sorry. How many car can you name that can run +/-0 offset as an standard offset?
