Default GX460 on Volk TE37 18x9 +0 276/65-18





Volk TE37 in Dark Gunmetal Large PCD 18x9 +0 with Falken Wildpeak AT3 275/65-18. Just wanted to show pics of this setup on my 2015 Premium on OEM suspension. I'm rubbing on the fender liners on full turns but will remove the bolt and mold the liners out of the way.
Pics to follow.

Thanks! I've always wanted TE37s and was going to get some for my ISF but ended up with BBS LMs for it so it only right to some TEs for the GX.

Thanks, these are tinted and in my opinion, don't look as good as i thought. I've been keeping an eye out on eBay for OEM red tails.

OE ones seem to be 400 a light. With my dealer discount I can get 30% off but it’s still rather expensive.

yeah, i will try to and with a better phone since i'm still on a iPhone6..haha! My Ray's center caps should be here next week so i will do it then.

Get ready for some serious rubbing! Not only does it rub on the screw but the fender liner as well, at least it did for me. I spent part of today removing that bolt and heat gunning and pushing the liners out of the way. I hope the rubbing is gone by the time my wife drives it (its her car ). I should start a build thread because I'm going to put a Prinsu rack on it soon, since its been sitting in the garage for over a month now and hopefully the Kaon table too thats been sitting in the box for about 3 months.

BTW, thanks for offering to sell your F-sport wheels. I went from looking for those here and eBay to just getting these Volks, no regrets.

Just a heads up..Volk center caps will NOT fit with hub rings.

I’m not sure at the moment. Gonna see how the mountains and trails I visit this year looks. Another thing is that my wife works in downtown Seattle and we have to be cautious of Parkin garage height clearances.

Thanks! I'll add more pics. Can't really go wrong with Volks but my only complaint is that the center caps aren't compatible with the hub rings that were supplied. I've contacted the vendor and they said they have contacted Ray's for a solution.
