Took some new pics today.
Put my supra front brakes on and my Blitz Z1's didn't fit so I put some Bronze TE37s on until the new wheels come in. The 4 Runner is my technicians on TE37s (18s as well).

I know you're psyched to get the new Blitz's, but I love a Bronze Volk in 18", though the Techno's do look righteous on the SC, make sure to post some pics when the new rims arrive.

The rims are 18x8.5 and 18x9.5 (245/40/18 and 275/35/18 Toyo T1-S)
The Upgrade is super easy, everything just bolts over you just have to cut off the headsheild. It can be done in about 2 hours or less. The only bad thing is the offset. It moves the calipers farther up the wheel and spaces it out so it's going to hit the inside of your rims. Your going to need at least a 18x8 (high disk only ) , the volks are 18x8.5 and fit.
I like the way the volks look on the car, but it just makes it look like it has a 2JZ and this is my "daily driver" so I don't need it down for weeks while I do the swap. I might do it a year from now but for now I am going for the "clean luxury look". The Z3's should look killer as I got 19x8 19x10s and should be the first in the nation with them, but I do miss my Z1s

So the cover came off................
Looks good. I started to come by yesterday to let you see what it looked like on the eibachs. I'm outa here tommorow but when I get back I'll stop by to let you check mine out. I was talkin to POP about getting maybe a set of SE-37's for mine. Or a set of CA-05's if someone can hook me up for a good amount. I want to be able to just ****** the tires off my knockoffs and carry on like normal. (can't have the girlfriend notice too much.)

Just my opinion, but to me the white body color doesn't match the wheel color..looks ok, but there could be another color more suited ;-)
Oh. wasn't paying attention,,you are planning to replace those when you get the new ones..duh..

You gotta see it in person.
The bronze finish perfectly accents the pearl white. I had TE37's on my civic which was also pearl white and it gives it a completely aggresive look in deference to having a black wheel. Admittedly though the TE37 is more of a sports wheel than a Luxury touring. Also check out the same color on an SE37 .

Trust me I don't care for the look of it I am just glad to be able to drive her around (had to wait one month for a replacement volk to come in for a bend one).
19x8 19x10 Z3s on the way though For those of you who are curious.
