Volk te37SL? HELP
Hi,
I know this might have been discussed in other threads, but I can't get my head straight on this.... I'm about to order brand new 18" te37SL for my z4 M coupe. The car sits on stock suspension at the moment but will have KW clubsports at a later date. I also have 380mm brembo kit that is going to be installed. I want to use r-tires, r888. I want as wide rear tires as possible without modification 275-285~. I now wonder, if this is the right way to go. My dealer is offering me these sizes TE37SL BK 18" 9,5 +22 front and 18" 10,5 +20 rear. Will they fit nicely? Will I have problems with tire choices? If so, can you please give me some nice numbers to go with instead? Wheels and tires is a jungle for me, and I just want what gives me the most performance. Thank you so much in advance! Best regards, Greg |

hi greg alittle too aggressive for MY taste, if you want a setup that can be used hard and tracked like an ///M car should be used this will limit tyre choice and most likely rub.
check out the sticky at the top of this page for detailed fitments on the ///M, study it very closely.

Hey Greg,
For reference, I have TE37's in 19x10.5 +22 in the rear and 19x8.5 +30 in the front. I'm running 275/30/19 Pilot Super Sports in the rear and 245/30/19 Nitto Invos in the front. I'm also on KW V3's with Clubsport rear springs.

Here's what it looks like when I had 18x8.5 et 35 front and 18x9.5et 22 rear, which is the perfect and correct fitment for this car. Tires are 225/45R18 and 255/40R18 Advan AD08, which run quite a bit wider than their sizes suggest. For less aggressive tires, you could probably get away with a 245/275 setup.
I think the offsets you listed are a little low, and the fitment is more aggressive than what would be ideal for perfectly fitting in the wheel wells.

Agreed. I think 10.5ET20 is a bit too much. I'm running 10.0ET25x18 with 275/35 and had rubbing issues before fender modification. I still rub going up driveways and such.
