18" TE37's or Buddy Club P1 QF's on sport brakes
 
Hey all,

Need some help. I'm considering the Volk TE37's and Buddy Club P1 QF's in an 18" sizing for my coupe with the sport pack brakes.

I'm going to be using these rims initially in a winter setup and eventually in a track setup so I want to keep the sizing square all around.

Does anyone have any suggestions on offsets/width for these two rims? I'm a noob. I can see what te37 sizes fit the z34 sport brakes on the rays website but not sure how they'll sit in the wheel well. Have no idea if the QF's will fit over the sport brakes.

thanks
JP

TE37s for winter use?

Oh the humanity!

yep, money to burn, also need to rock the winters for almost 1/2 the year might as well look somewhat good doing it

youll get a lot more respect on the forums if you buy volk's...If Im not mistaken though the tires are more important then the rims for a winter set up no?

tires are important and I've got good options on those, bridgestones lm60's or nokian R's are what I've narrowed the choice down to, but need some help on the sizing for good rims

His first sentense was the only one I was interested in:tiphat:

if anyone's interested, this offset calculator helped me figure things out

Wheel Offset Calculator

also ended up going for some silver RE30's, 18x9. They were in stock and the right price for me - may look a little strange on my car but thinking of running spacers on the rears to fill out the fenders a bit more.
