LM's are heavy.
look sexy though...

TE37 spokes are "flat" in S2k offset and doesn't look as exciting as on Nissan Z350/370.
You sir are quite right, hence the reason for retarded offsets on my toy.
I am so sorry but I have loved and loved those wheels,removing my arm without freezing it would less painful than getting rid of them.
Those, are not TE37s (for the benefit of this thread). I am reasonably certain you could sell a single genuine volk te37 and buy four replicas. The reason I don't know whether or not that's correct, is because I'm not interested in replica wheels.

Wheels, brakes, suspension and seats are safety equipment.

I have no doubt that I will eventually get some TE37s if I can be bothered, as I don't really have a problem with using copy's .I just think that mine are good looking wheels whatever the name is on them..... Oh! You wouldn't get 4 replicas for the price of one genuine one ,I know because I have thought about it.

I dont have a problem with copy's, that's why I didn't have a Seibon but bought this Mugan copy,which is a blatant copy of the Seibon. It isnt an itch I need to scratch at the moment(neither is the Mugen hardtop...or a copy )but I am sure it may become one.
I needed some new brakes,so I got these....a vulgar and blatant copy of stock brakes.

Why don't you buy from the US - loads of availability and shipping isn't as bad as you'd imagine... maybe $250 ontop

Te 37s are still expensive from the US,I did consider buying a set.I would possibly look at some s/h ones though.I seem to be coming a perpetual wheel buyer,Buddy club P1s 2000 miles (in the loft now)and my Rota Grids,about 800 miles on them.I cant believe I am thinking of buying TE 37s

looking at this picture i realize that 17" is just to small for this.
19" is a must to look good.

Try asking Vtec direct. Andy will sort you out with a set. I want another set of ce28ns. An yes you will be looking at 2500 GBP maybe plus. If you get it from America you will get import tax. But that's if your bothered about paying a little extra or not. good luck in finding a set. Hopefully I'd have a set by the end of the year lol
