Car journal topic for "Project Yozora" is here: http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=5801

Wheels: Volk Racing TE37, 17" x 8" +38, gold finish
Tires: Toyo Proxes R1R, 235/40/17

I had guessed at this fitment with the stats way back in mid-March, and ordered the wheels in late March. I knew it was going to take a while, since the "gold" finish is a custom one; I didn't think it would take until mid-August. Once I got the email from Scott at Ballistic Motorsports, in my mind I was shouting, "SUGOOOOOOOI!!"

The fitment was a pretty good guess. The inside strut clearance is almost dead-on what it is with the stock tires; about 3/4" away from the coil. No rubbing at all. The outside is just barely inside the fender, which is perfect. I'm getting a lot of comments about huge wheel gap, but this is a setup for autocross, to get 8 inches of tire on the ground. I haven't had a chance to play around, but I can't chirp the tires on demand anymore in VSC Sport, as I could with the 215-wide Primacy tires. That's a good thing, though; it means there's more cornering force.

I had a guy in a B5 A4 with an Audi-ring "dope" window sticker stop adjacent, give me a thumbs up and "Niiiice!", and he took a picture with his phone. That's very good praise

Congrats, they look amazing, perfect offset and color.... have you seen any pics of the dark gold ? its impossible to find any picture of that thing

ZetaVI · 08-28-2012, 12:09 PM

I think if anybody wants TE37's they should get them in this size imo.

JACK 8URT0N · 08-28-2012, 12:14 PM

I have 17" gold te37s on white, I guess that makes you my evil twin.

IMO that looks like the perfect offset and sizes

Tanuki · 08-28-2012, 01:51 PM

I need to see it them with the car lowered. I ordered 17x8 +44 and am hoping they look good.

I wish they made them with a bit more concave, but they don't look bad.

btw, weight is about 16 lbs.
