Hey guys, I'm trying to find pics and info on the +12 TE37. I know a lot of you guys run them here but is there a face concaveness and lip size difference? I want to go +12 but I can't justify it unless it's different, otherwise I'd just run kics spacers and it'll be the same thing. I like having the front at the +22 because the back will look more aggressive so I don't need to go +12 fronts, just rears

 

Are you referring to fronts or rears? I can sort you out with what you're looking for.
I am running 19x9.5" +12 up front and 19x10.5" +22 (w/ a 10mm spacer).

 

I'm talking about the rears. You're doing the exact thing I might end up doing: +22 - 10mm spacer = +12 but I was wondering if the actual 19x10.5+12 te37 looks any different than the +22 in terms of how concave the spokes are and the lip size.

 

I believe the lip is bigger, but im not sure about the concave-ness.

 

+12 front and +22 rears are ideal if you're looking for the nice front lip and traction in the back w/o serious fender mods.. other wise just go either one or the other. - here's a link to my +12's The +12's are slightly more concave but not that much.

I have not measured them, however I believe the only difference is the concavity
of the spokes. This must be where Rays picks up the extra distance... My issue with
the +12s is brake fitment. Watch where you're going with this, although I've got a
relatively unique scenario playing out.

For the record (4) 19x10.5" merc silver te-37s in +22 sold for $1675 on ebay last sunday. WTF.

 

WAT. $1675? What a steal...

But anyway, the +12's in Crom's pics look like they have bigger lips then my +22's. I cant really notice if the concavity is more though.

 

Brake fitment issues? I haven't seen anyone have any issues between Crom, Rickdogg and myself. Three distinct kits that fit no problem. The TE's are designed for the BBK.

 

they make up the extra offset by just having a thicker hub. exact same overall result as if you used a spacer

 

these are +12 face. notice more lip


these are +22 offset. same concavity. less lip.

 

I meant my bbk tnks

 

The fronts didn't quite "clear" my brakes either.



That is actually not correct. I'm sure there is some more material on the hub, but it is definitely slightly more concave and the lip is slightly bigger than a +22.

 

thanks and thanks. kwame is an encyclopedia.

wtf do you do to repair the finish on an endless bbk? re-anodize?

 

Learned something new!

 

SWEET! That's exactly what I was hoping to hear I didn't want buy new rear wheels unless it was going to look different. Since it's just the hub, the spacers are going on asap

As for the front I'm not looking to switch them up because I prefer the +22 in the front to show off the concaveness in the rears more I like that the front looks different so that it doesn't look like an awd setup.

 

Except he's wrong

 

boo...we need side by side comparison before i spring for new mag bluesss

 

I can snap a pic...

 

I'll take some dirty mag pictures when I get home.

 

the change is all in the lip. not really noticeably different concavity on 19 inch versions.
