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?

they come in all kinds of crazy colors. they're only 900 for set (picked up). Now I'm just hoping to hear about some experience and the quality of the wheel...
