DEEDUBBS New Wheels =)

After 5 nail biting months my long awaited wheels finally came in. As of right now these are the only set of VOLK TE-37's in this size/ color on U.S. soil (shameless originality plug) . I chose to wrap the rims with Toyo T1R's. I had to get the fenders rolled only in the rear for the wheels to fit. The fronts are 19X8.5 and the rears are 19X9.5. You can see the size of the tires on one of the pictures below. I'm still waiting on my matching flat center caps and my black short lug nuts. Enjoy the pix!

Special thanks to Mackin, Options Auto Salon, and Status Auto Design for the fender rolling.

Sexy and CLEAN!! Personally i think it'd look better if you lose the "powered by HKS" on the front windshield, but wow, i love those wheels and the hood!! nice car!

yeah, uhhhhh, so I'm here from the Rays Inspection Department...
it seems that after we passed them on to the Distribution Center, a test came back positive for defects that I cannot elaborate on in public.
please PM me for a return address so we can take, errr, fix them ASAP.

These are the offsets: 19x8.5 +30 and 19x9.5 +34. I believe the wheels weigh about 19lbs. The grip is awsome.
