Looks great on white too. Yeah they fit great. I love the TE37 on this car because of its simplicity.

Two topics merged for simplicity -- same wheel, same width and offset.

Also, wheel weight updated in the Wheel Directory.

Side at an angle is the only way to show how the wheel/ tire actually sits in the wheel well. Anyone offsets aren't represented by a straight side shot.

This is true, but at an angle you can't see if you like the way the wheel sits in the wheel well.

Vivid. The center caps were also ordered from them separately.

Anyone have pictures of these on a Dark Gray Metallic? I was thinking of going with a rim with a red accent to match the red accent of the interior, but not sure if it would look good on the outside.

Great looking setup, regardless!

^Hahah well you better do it. These wheels are almost sold out in most places because they don't make them anymore (I think).

Looking good guys! Glad we could get you both taken care of.
The wheels are still available as well, I think we have 1 last set in stock yet.
