They are nice wheels. Carcrazy has them and pics of his car are posted around the forum. Search for "SE37A" or "carcrazy".

They only offer the SE37A's on 18 inchers, if you want 17's they are the SE37K which has a different mesh style. Both are very very nice.

LE37K

IMHO, the LE37K is MUCH better looking than the SE37K...mostly because of the machined rim lip, and the nice-looking center cap that comes with the LE37K. The SE37K is more of a racing wheel (no centercap), and bead-blasted finish...

Go to this site http://www.rayswheels.co.jp/ navigate to Ray's Wheel database, then Volk Racing, then LE37K. You'll notice that the 8.5 fr/9.5 rr x 17 in 40-mm offset is the way to go with 235/45- and 265/40- seventeen-inch tires (Bridgestone S-03s IMHO)

If you want same sized wheels all around, then SE37K in 9 x 17, 40-mm offset with 245/40-17 is your ticket. Do get the plain center cap that's optional with the SE37K!

IMO, the SE/LE37Ks' spokes are nicely proportioned on the wheels. It's a shame the owner of the FD Rx7 mounted Kumho Supra 712s on such nice, performance-oriented wheels

No **** Manny. I see that all the time. Expensive *** wheels and cheap *** tires. Typically the first thought that comes to mind is, "Damn, dude spent so much on rims he ran out of money for tires." hehe.

But then again a lot of people don't see function in spending a lot of money on street tires alone. I still agree with you though.

****, Dunlop FM901's can get more prestige than the Kumhos. hehe.

Had a beer so sorry if I'm cussing a bit here and there. Yup, just got off work. Came home and started doing the same damn thing I was doing at work. Darn forums man. I gots no life whatsoever.
