Default te-37's on the S2000?

ok, heres the deal, i want to do one of these 3 options and i wanted to know you guys' opinions before i decide. i have a camry with bronze volk te-37's on them and as of now the s2000 has black VSR's on it (check the sig) anyways, i was either A)wanting to put the bronze volks on the S2000, B)get the bronze volks custom painted silverstone to match my car and put the vsr's on the camry or C)leave it the way it is. the only problem with putting bronze volks on the S2000 is that my S is silverstone and i dont know if the silver and bronze will go together too nicely (especially since i have a black top and black carbon mirrors) and i dont know if i want to get the volks painted bc theyre expensive wheels and i dont want to have them get messed up by the guy whod paint them or mess with the JDMness of the volks SO, i guess could you guys' just give your opinions on this thread and ill prob make my decision though your answers

Hold on.

You want to put Volks from your FWD CAMRY onto your RWD S2000 and the ONLY problem you forsee is whether or not the color will match?

What are the offsets?
Just because you put 225s on the front and 255s on the rear, if all 4 rims are 8.5 then it's not a true staggered setup, which the S needs.
Someone correct me if Im wrong.

Check my sig for what you need
^I agree. It is not a true staggered setup. It will definitely help to have the wider tires on the rear, but it will not be as good as if you have wider rims in the rear. The offset is the most important aspect. If that doesn't work then hang it up.

you certainly don't NEED a staggered setup, but its highly advised unless you know what you're doing The #1 question is what are the offsets on the 37s?

we have prodrive wheels that are similar to the volks te-37. Very nice as well. The color is available in British black - like gun metal.
