**FS: Volk LE37 18x8.5/30 offset with FK452 Falkens

Looking to sell my Volks as is.

They're LE37s with the lip. Discontinued and these were priced much higher than the TE37s.

The sticker is coming off but that can be replaced for about $30 bucks.
Tires are about 80% and above so no worries there.

Rims alone would cost you about $1800 used, tires are another $600~800 on top.

Save some money.

Specs : 18x8.5 + 30 all around
Tires : Falken FK452 235/40/18 80% and up tread left

Price : $1800 ($200 for shipping which includes paypal and shipping fees)




Driver Front



Driver Rear



Passenger Front



Passenger Rear



show off pix













*I will not separate the tires and rims.

Actually, I don't check craigslist.

Me and two other friends have LEs also.

2 sets are +30 and the other, +40. We habe falken hook ups so we pretty much just get those unless we find something cheaper.

Colors gunmetal with a lip.

Read forum rules please. Also 30 offset is very aggresive. Rubbing may occur.

INGS' RX8 runs TE37 19x8.5 +22 in the front.

these are 18s.

Rubbing all depends on your drop.

i bought them for under 2000 without tires.

... also, what's wrong with people buying it and reselling it online?
is there something wrong with that concept? if a person can get something for cheap and later resell for it's normal value, is there something wrong with that?

Let's post what's related to the rims.

Thanks.

sorry,i was just giving u free bumps. there's nothing wrong with buying something cheap and selling it at its normal value, we do live in a capitalist society after all.

good luck with your sale.

haha sorry if you took it the wrong way.

I sell 2 sets/ month or 1 set/month. I like to change my set up a lot. Lots of times, there were some posts that were the same as mine so people asked me that question. 'Are these yours...' and so on.

Thanks for the bumps =)

These are now at Best OFFER.

i found something i wanted!

If you rub you rub. How low you are might alter the frequency of rubbing. Whether you rub when bottomed depends purely on the wheel and fender setup, no matter how low or high your car is you can't alter the suspension geometry with springs.

lets put it this way,

i had 245/35/19 on my 19x9.5+43F+34R TE37s.
I had some rubbing problems.
I sold it to a guy with a rx8, shin xi something is his username. He has 0 rub.
I have a different car hence my username TL type s.

These are 18x8.5+30, MUCH less aggressive than the set i sold before.

These will not rub. a common answer for people asking ' do they rub ' is that it MAY depending on your drop. if you have coilovers that can control dampness and you lower it moderately, no, you won't rub. However, if you have springs and the spring rate sucks, then yes, you will rub when you bounce on the freeway.

yes, you can't alter the suspension geometry with springs, but depending on what TYPE of suspension you get, you can control the rubbing. I don't touch camber but a lot of people put a positive camber and to get 0 rub.

back to topic, these are still for sale =)

bump to that.

people fit 9.5s with 34 offsets in the rear.

how will you rub with 8.5s with 30 offsets?

i'm not FIRM on the pricing so if you're serious, shoot me an offer.

consider the tire prices also. you're getting a great deal for this price.

rx8's can fit down to a x9.5 +15 easily or more aggressive if you want to get crazy with it.
