My last car that I modded was a Lexus and I had fully polished Volk Te-37's on it. I absolutely loved that wheel however, as most of you know they were very expensive and maintaining the polish, curb rash and the fact that i hit a massive pot hole and bent two of them became a real headache. This time around I'm thinking about taking it easy on the pocketbook and going with VarrsToen TE-37 reps. I've done a little poking around and have read mostly good stuff. What are your thoughts? I'm thinking about going 19x9.5+20 - 19X10.5+22

I dont know man 9.5 et 20 fronts might fit. My 9 inch fronts et18 on stock struts has a pinkys worth of clearance , Zero with coilovers needed 12 spacers. a 265/30, 275/30 front tire will work though and its nice! See if you can get a lower offset like 15 on the 9.5. If you do get these dont lower the car and dont get kw coils.

The rears will beautiful with a 295/30 on them.

stock is 8.5 ET20 so if you add a half inch or inch of rim you gotta subtract from wheel offset. What vendor?
