Default Will this clear Spoon calipers?

What type of spacer do you guys think I would need to run with a 17x7 +40 Volk TE37 and or a 17x7.5?

Thanks.

go for 1775 +40. that's what i'm looking for, but i can't find anything in stock. there's a damn 3 months wait for any wheel i want in the specific size and offsets...

at most i think you'll need is a 3mm spacer. i guess if you want to make sure and not use spacers go with the 1775 +35.

nevermind, they don't offer the +35 for the te37...

it's the ce28n w/ the +33 or te37 in the +30.

check the hyper rev mags out with s2000 with te37. i remember some of them have spoon calipers. if you can read, just see if they use spacers on their setups.

He just told me with the +40 17x7.5 I will need a 15mm spacer. Does that sound right? I am thinking I may only need a 5mm at most.

Your Works are much hotter than the te37s. But, I bet AJ-R could help you. He has the Spoons with I believe 17x7.5 +43 ce28ns. I know the design of the tes and ces are different, but I bet he can help. I think he used a 3mm with the ces.

So to answer your question, no that doesnt sound right. I think a 5mm spacer will be sufficient. Who told you otherwise?!

Well if it is 17x7.5 +40, I would definitely think a 5mm would be more than enough. Call AJ-R tomorrow. Ben will help. Who told you that you would need a 15mm spacer?

He was trying them on over at Opak Racing. I think they should work. The curvature is not that bad but I dont know Volks at all.
Just call Sherwin and/or Ben tomorrow. They will get you the answer, but I highly doubt more than a 5mm spacer.

BTW...you gonna get them for a good price?

Thanks. I may not even buy them. If they dont work then I not getting them. If they need a 5 mm spacer then I will pick them up. I hardly have ever seen these wheels anywhere. My craftsquare mirrors are on the way too. Cant wait for those to get here.
