TE37 Track Setup Mounted
I mounted the TE37s I purchased last month to check for fit. The specs are:
18x9.5 ET28: 265/35 BFG 18x10.5 ET30: 285/30 BFG Suspension is stock for the time being. (I don't want coilovers on this car--at least not yet.) I might run spacers in the back, but haven't decided what size... Here are some pics, including the stock 19" wheels with PSCs on for comparison.

The sticker says "TC Kline Racing". I bought the wheels used from TC Kline. I think he had the wheels custom made as a large order with Rays.

Looks good. I was wondering two things: Did you measure the front and rear track? I would like to sompare it to the stock track measurements. Second, does the rear feel loose? It looks like you could use spacers in the back, as you suggested. The track actually "looks" narrower than the front.

You are correct. The tires have a smaller diameter. Stock 18" PS2 are 25.7" F/26.3" R. These are 25" F&R. You are limited by the sizes BFGs come in.

If you are looking for alternatives, I would seriously consider Advan RS, but I don't know that you'll have 18" sets in stock.

http://www.tirerack.com/tires/Spec.j...irePageLocQty= I bought mine from tirerack. They had the best prices I could find, and great service. Did the stock rims come with PS2s? If so, considering you are a beginner, you might just want to stick to those for the time being.
