Yeah Keemaca, I think you may be right on that one. I hear through the grape vine that they(rays eng.) may be releasing a white TE37RT next year. However the chances of them offering anything for the s2000 is slim. These 10 sets are very special, and I'm glad it all worked out! I probably won't be able to rock them till next season though:-/

I wanted a set so bad but couldn't make it work out. I'll definitely be bugging everyone that bought them to sell them to me come tax time

So good.

It's gonna have the aggressive stance that the CE's in 17x9.5+35 and RPF1's in 17x9.5+38 wrapped with 245's/255's offers. I've been wanting to see how the TE37RT's would look in that similar stance.

So if Ravspec only got three, which are going to you guys, and Evasive said they sold out, does that mean all of these s2000 fitment TE37RTs are spoken for? Because if so, that is awesome! Rare parts are always a plus in my books

This is the last picture for now until I put them on the car tomorrow, and then go

What size tires? I have a 9+38 with a 245 in the rear, and it rubs on the bumper with hard dips on the driver side, I'm debating tire size with the TE's I don't really want to do additional fender work

These are 245s. My 10 +45 wheels have 255s all around, so these 9.5 +40 w/ 245s should sit very similar. The 255s rub on the drivers side rear but it is also sitting lower than the pass side, so i need to even the height. if it keeps rubbing, i'll probably just let the tire mold my rear fenders for me as long as its not rubbing anything sharp.

Wow, I was worried the concave is gonna be slight, boy was I wrong! These teasers are killing me! Post pics asap tomorrow please! I'm gonna run 255 ZII or AD08R on these, but I have done a ton of work to my quaters over the last years. Rear tab is pretty much as far as it will go, the bumper is shaved to almost a 1mm at the very top, the lip is rolled flat, and fully pulled. Have been able to fit 255/40 17x10 +45 CE's tucking a bit of tire with no rubbing, as well as 255/40 17x9 +38 regas with no rubbing(actually was tougher than the CE's) and these should be a good middle ground between the two as far as off set and tire stretch. Front is whole other story, I have DF fenders fully trimmed, and I'm pretty low, so I'm rubbing the inside of the liner on hard dips. Guess it's time to raise her up. End paragraph!

^ Nice! Yea, it should be a nice middle ground in terms of stretch. Fronts are still pretty scary, but whatever.
