They are 18,8.5 and 9.5 running 235/40 and 265/35 Toyo T1S.

Check this one out we did JIC FLT-A2's and SE37K 18,9 front and rear with 255/35/18 Toyo T1S.

That VR-4 was fun. We lost 12 lbs per corner when going from his stock chrome 18's to the Volks with Toyos. Amazing. Thing winds up so much faster.

they are gunmetal
no matter how many times i see le37t's/te37's i never seem to get sick of them, a bit scary. they are plain but make a big statement.
and se37k's might be the best wheel for the money, has to rank in my top 5 favorite wheels.

Yup they're gunmetal. FYI, the gunmetal on the SE37's and the LE37's are different. The LE has a much darker gunmetal.

Just wanted to inform those who haven't seen both finishes.

I got a set of GT-C's in today for our project Supra JZA80. He's got 18,9's and 10's in with gunmetal faces.

That one will be sick. Full C-West bodykit too.

Sorry for the double post, but it was probably in the wrong forum...

Rishie, thanks again for the killer deal on the LE37T!

I hope he'll go for some coilovers but doubtful as I don't believe the Dragon will be racing the vehicle. He implied that he'd like a stereo system so we'll be putting some subs in the rear.

We'll see if I can talk him into a fiberglass box and coilovers, hehe. What do ya say Adrian?

'94 Touring unless he's put a glass roof on it after the fact.
