Nice! TE's are my kryptonite.

FuszNissan 07-13-2009 03:15 PM
Nice tire choice as well!

nogoodname 07-13-2009 03:24 PM
blue pin stripe.....blue pin stripe...!!!!

gatorfast 07-13-2009 04:02 PM
Sweet! Cant wait to see them mounted.

RCZ 07-13-2009 05:25 PM
Awesome wheels and tires! Hope they look good in whatever offset you chose. Offset makes such a huge difference on TE37's imo. Post pics when you get them mounted...

jmlenz 07-13-2009 07:04 PM
Nice choice...timeless design. what offsets?

shabarivas 07-13-2009 07:05 PM

Here's the numbers direct from Ryan's pm to me:

They would be 19x9.5 +22 / 19x10.5 +12

Forged is getting in the rims and the tires and balancing them for me down in Georgia and will be shipping them to Altered Atmosphere in Gaithersburg, MD. (where I intend on getting them put on along with my Stillen Sway Bars and BR Coilovers next Thursday).

I'll be sure to post pics next week for sure!:tup:

Another photo of the rims:

I know nothing about camber so the rims, tires, and offsets were suggestions from Forged. He said they had already done a similar setup before so I'm sure it will be amazing.

Anyone have any photos of a car with +22 camber in the front so I can get an idea what I should expect to see? Or something similar? I would really appreciate it. :tiphat:

Shunya 07-13-2009 10:19 PM
good choice in size and offsets. good taste on wheels too :)

genki370z 07-14-2009 01:08 AM

:tup: Will do. Will be cool to see the comparison of the two, as well. ;)

Snakebite202 07-14-2009 07:44 AM
TE37's and concavity for the FTMW! I can't wait to see pics...

Ryan@Forged 07-14-2009 09:43 AM
I can't hide it. I'm really excited to see these wheels on your car. I'm a sucker for flat black TE's on a blue car. Add aggressive offsets and high quality tires and there's nothing not to like.

LiquidZ 07-14-2009 09:51 AM
Nice looking wheel. It will be interesting to see how they look on a Z.

xiven 07-14-2009 09:55 AM
looks good man!

KillerBee370 07-14-2009 11:57 AM
In for some pics

Jon@Altered 07-14-2009 01:17 PM
Its going to look ill Tony. See you next Thursday!

cow 07-14-2009 01:22 PM
Great choice, especially on tires. I love the RE11s.

Diversion 07-14-2009 02:14 PM
Used to have Bronze 17" TE-37s years ago.. loved them, still one of my favorite style wheels.. and ridiculously lightweight. They will look at home on a Z.

I think your meaning to say +22 offset. Your camber will be more in the range of -1 or -2degress. The more you lower, the more negative the camber will drop. With your TE37 setup the fronts will stick out 31mm more than the OEM RAYS. This sounds like a lot but they quickly 'tuck' in as you drop the car.

Front: 19x9.5 265/19/35 (+22)
Back: 19x10.5 305/19/30 (+12)

The blue Volk decals will be coming off. Didn't have the time or the goo gone for that tonight.

For those that are wondering, I ordered Black Volk TE37's from Forged Performance (thanks Sharif and Ryan) and they had the "Time Attack" ring custom painted and ordered the Time Attack centercaps.

Anyone have any idea what to do about the blue valve stem???? I obviously would like it black, but not sure how to go about doing that. Any suggestions would be awesome.

Haha...yes, I was just checking that link out! :icon17: Makes me wish next Thursday was really this coming Thursday! :yum:

nogoodname 07-14-2009 09:10 PM
need the pinstripe to break up the wheel a bit because it's all black pretty much.

blue Z, blue decals, blue pinstripe on flat black..........what's not to like??
shouldn't cost much to do it also

Yes, I guess I did mean offset. All these new terms I'm learning and getting confused more than I was before! Thanks for the info.....I'm looking forward to seeing the end result of all this. ;)

Big C 07-14-2009 11:09 PM
Can't wait to see pics :tup:

Ryan@Forged 07-15-2009 08:28 AM
The other thread was another customer of ours ;) That is the same exact size and offset paired with the exact same tire sizes. :)

2theextreme 07-20-2009 01:20 PM
Got the good news from Ryan @ Forged....the wheels and tires have arrived! Things are looking good for Thursday....so far so good! :tup:

Edit: Wheels & Tires shipped! On the way to Altered Atmosphere by Wednesday....install on Thursday. :excited:

2theextreme 07-22-2009 11:16 AM
