Really like the TE37s, nice choice and look great! What sizes/offsets and tire sizes did you end up going with? Any rolling required?

Thank you! These are 18x10 +40 Square on 275/35 all around. Fenders were rolled flat (for previous set up) the meaty 2011 Wheel set up running 255/275/40R19

Thank you! I also preferred 19s, but i wanted to see how 18s would look. Planning to trade these wheels for some 19s in the near future.

Do you like the seats? I'm not a fan - they're not nearly as comfortable as the original ones. I drive them both interchangeably and always prefer the IS over the GS for seat comfort.

Didn't know this was your thread man! I was talking to you on Instagram about the TE37 setup haha. I'm still really considering the exact same setup but would really rather not lower the car right now. Because of that I'm a little skeptical because I don't want the wheel gap to look absolutely terrible with the 18"s. Makes me consider 19"s a bit more but then 275/35 square would probably rub hard on the back

Thanks for this man, the whole 18/19 choice has been driving me crazy all day lol. Your car still looks pretty good with stock, and I wouldn't mind getting coilovers at some point since I'm on the hard stock '08 suspension anyway. I would ideally want to go square so I could rotate tires, but I would almost definitely have to go staggered on 19"s if I don't want to do extensive fender work. If anyone is selling a very specific set of TE37SLs hit me up
