Are my shoes too small ? 18" volk te37
I originally bought this set of te37 for my is300 but I ended up getting a is350.
I didn't mind it at first but after seeing pictures of 19" on the 2is I'm starting to second guess.
What do you all think ?
Tires a bit flat in the rear too

Try slamming it first. Then see what it looks like. Otherwise they look a bit small.

they look fine. fitment doesn't look like an issue. i'd go w/ meatier tires - if the wheel specs can allow.

This, and add some air in that back tire.

Great looking rims. A little more drop would make it look a lot better.

if you don't mind, try spacers on. They instanty beef up the look of your wheels. Think about it, even stock 18" wheel looks so much better with spacer and slammed. Then how well it will make your very good foundation like TE37 look better?

Doesn't matter if you go for 18, 19 or 20, if you don't lower your car it will not look good. You need to slam it first before make any decision on wheel again.

Just needs a drop. 18" is perfect for tracking
