Default TE37 Fitment Help

How would the fitment Be running this setup , I don’t want to do any pulling/rolling and if so the minimum amount. Want to have a more aggressive look and I’ll also be lowered about 2 inches from stock heights. Also what tires would I need or could run

x2 17x8.5 +40
x2 17x9.5 +35
5x114.3

Those won't work. Do way more research.

Cody is right, that isn't happening. Aggressive look and untouched fenders do not go together, especially dumped two inches.

you need +60s to fit 9.5 wheels to standard car at standard ride height
Or roll the fenders 25-30mm for your rims

You can't have both no rolling or pulling and an aggressive look. Those sizes are way too aggressive and would require a roll and likely a pull on all 4 corners. Like Colin said you need to be in the +55 or higher (ideally above +60) to not touch the fenders.

I don’t mind rolling and pulling if it’s just minor , just wanted to know was the set up possible without all out destroying my body line .

I mean there isn't really a minimum amount. The fenders are either rolled or the aren't. Pulling there is varing degrees of pull you can have but for those specs its going to need a pretty noticeable pull and how it looks will depend on how good the person you have to do it is.

Bit late to this party, however im going to be running a square TE37 setup and this will be my specs.

17x9.5 +41 (evasive spec) with 245/40/17 tire
camber: -2.5 all around
drop: 1.5"

I have also gotten my fenders trimmed and rolled (no pull) so I look stock still.

Even with all that this is a very aggressive setup and will probably need some adjusting once everything is on. I suspect I should be able to drive this around with no issues however I am prepared to add more camber and rise my ride height to compensate. I'm also running a slightly thinner tire to account for tucking under my fenders.

I am assuming you want the lower offsets to get that concave look. Try and get the spec from Evasive Motorsports as those are a pretty concave looking setup with a decently high enough offset that it "may" not require a fender pull if you are willing to sacrifice other things (upping ride height, more camber, thinner tire).

that was the original plan , but I’ve talked to the guys at evasive and all the colors I liked are pretty much snagged up for this upcoming batch they ordered
