Sorry if you already posted your wheel specs, but are your fronts 19x9.5 +12 or 19x10.5 +22? Either way, looks great .

Fronts must be +12 based on the amount of lip.

EDIT: I could be wrong though. He may be running 10.5" widths in the front, +22 offset possibly with a spacer.

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.

general question, are most of the guys with the TE37's running spacers for the +22 offsets?

I'm running +22 all around without spacers. Thinking about a 10 up front and a 15 in the rear though. I kind of wish I would have went with +12 all around now but live and learn.

That's exactly what I did (10mm f and 15mm r spacers). Wish the ventus V12's came in 265/35 so I could have done a 20mm rear spacer. There aren't a lot of symmetrical tread pattern 265/35/19 in the sub $300 range, unfortunately.

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!

I don't a have drop yet, that's next Here's mine again:

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.
