Volk SE37A on Spirit R grey '93

Hi All,

Due to request, I'm posting some pics of my new Volk SE37A on my 7.

I bought these from leatherface24, who's been nothing short of an awesome seller!

Enjoy.

Wheels look great. Also reminds me of how nice these cars look w/o a wing/spoiler.

I like how low it sits.

What size tires are you running on the front and rear?

As others have already said, it looks very nice BUT I'm curious how well your fenders are holding up....
From what I remember of Leatherface's thread, the offsets were a little off.

HOLY CRAP I can NOT believe how many replies there are!!
Thank you all very much for the compliments; they mean a lot to me.

I'll try to address all the questions you guys have:

they're 18X8.5 at the front, and 18X9.5 at the back, offset is 36mm for all 4 (so I was told).

this is the closest I can find:

225/40/18 for the front and 255/35/18 for the back, Potenza S-03's

yes sir! I've definitely prepared myself before purchasing an FD. I built my FC from an empty chassis, which makes maintaining a clean, rust-free FD a joke! I mean, once the rats nest is outta the car, it's ALLLL good!

Yes they do. The TE37's have always been my dream wheels until the day I laid my eyes on the SE37A: lighter, prettier, forged, monoblock, and the same manufacturer! They've been my dream wheels ever since. But they were discontinued from Volks so I thought I'd never get a chance to own these wheels in my life! Until I saw leatherface's thread.....

ya the offsets are a little off, and it has already rubbed the fender once when I went over a bump slightly too fast. But this is due to the poor suspension set up that came with the car: H&R springs w/ stock shocks. This combo is a comfortable street setup, way too comfortable for me. Once I get a set of coilovers it'll fix the problem.

Thanks! shitty suspensions. see above.
