Yes, the old time attack style had the silly red pin stripe which I never cared for. At TAS 2012, Volk released the "Tokyo Time Attack" TE's which look like the old LE37's with a polished lip... BUT, the TTA TE's are as light as the SL's.

I've been going through all 32 pages about these rims and have some questions that I don't think have been answered (if the questions are repeaters, I apologize in advance).
Did you notice an improvement in handling with the TE37 rims (assuming you are running the standard tire sizes 245/255 front and 275/285 rear)?
I did not see a picture of any cars that have not been lowered with TE37 rims. I'm assuming that's for good reason. Anyone have a pic with TE37 rims but no drop?
Can you lower the car 1 to 1.5 inches, running 245 front and 275 rear, without having to roll the fenders? I believe PikesPeakZ was talking about rolling rear fenders with 275, but I believe he dropped.
How much did the ride quality change when going from stock rims to TE37?
Love the thread. Looking at picking up a used pair of TE/LE37 for my 2005ZR roadster but I want to do my research first!

Stock ride height
Wheel: 19x9.5 +22 Tire: 245/35/19
Wheel: 19x10.5 +22 Tire: 275/35/19
Car feels nicer on the road with lighter wheels and more tread on the street.
