TE-37 would be fantastic. I wanna get an idea of how deep the lip is.

Thanks

adey · 10-20-2003, 03:21 AM

Sorry to burst yer bubble, but te37s don't have much of a lip no matter how low of an offset you go, only a dished spoke look.
16*8 +15 should give you a good 3" lip or so, +/- 1" depending on face (disk) design.

actually, they do
depending what face you go with
ive seen 18x10? maybe or maybe it was 9 on a s13 (works at apex'i) that was flat face and LIP with a low offset. about 3" or so lip (same color as wheel, not polished)

deviousKA · 10-20-2003, 10:43 AM

This would be very similar. Near 0 on a 7"

yes very true, the rear inner fenders are rolled up a bit but i still need some ruca for more rear camber. my tires never rub even at full roll unless i have a passenger. anyway i just realized you were looking for flat facers, so that was no help

bishopant · 10-22-2003, 01:27 PM

Dousan,

What different faces are there? I don't see face choices on rayswheels.co.jp.

Dousan_PG · 10-22-2003, 01:30 PM

i dont know specifically but look at these pics for PROOF
hehe

yes they are real volk. the guy works at Apex'i iirc. nice guy.

it's more of a 2" lip on a +15 offset. I have some 15x8 Epsilons with -26 offset and its barely 3.5" lip. And thats a flat face, not like the TE37s.

Heartwork · 10-22-2003, 01:54 PM

the difference in face choices are the concave look on them....some widths/offsets wont have concave look, others will....
for my rims, only 16x8.5+ or 17x9.5 had concave spokes regardless of offset....

brianglawson · 10-23-2003, 04:21 AM

what kind of body kit is that on the gray silvia above???

fiebru1119 · 10-23-2003, 06:50 AM

Dousan_PG · 10-23-2003, 07:51 AM

they look like SSR MKIs right? solid face right?

looks like redrilled to 4x114.3iirc

we never use them. wont fit

bishopant · 10-23-2003, 01:48 PM

Okay. Let me re-state my criteria. By lip I meant sunken spoke also. Actually now that I think about it, no lip with sunken spokes on TE-37's would be very nice. But lip is always nice when possible. So here's my question redefined:

1) a. What is minimum width of TE-37 in 16in. that gives nice dished/sunken spoke design?

1) b. What is minimum width of TE-37 in 17in. that gives nice dished/sunken spoke design?

Thanks,
ant

Dousan_PG · 10-23-2003, 01:53 PM

i'd GUESS

8 inch

LOWEST offset available

DudeYourSoOOJDM · 10-23-2003, 08:37 PM

yea Dousan is rt.

At least 8" wide.

On the silver car, the rears I believe have Face 2.

The Face-2 have a more sunken in look than normal te-37s, while not sticking out.

ugh, no. I think you're talking about Centerliners. The ones i'm talking about are Modular 3-piece mesh Racing wheels. Here's a pic to finish this lesson...

Zemus · 10-23-2003, 09:58 PM

Such nice wheels, love the volks, also love the eps. MM

Dousan_PG · 10-24-2003, 08:36 AM

thank you, professor!

bishopant · 10-24-2003, 01:59 PM

Thanks for the info.

How many faces are there for 16x8, 16x8.5 and 17x9 are there?

bishopant · 10-29-2003, 11:07 PM

What size and offset are those volks?
