I just installed my Volk LE-37's last month. I love them, but I noticed they are a little inverted in the front and rear.

my sizes are:
(18 18x7.5/8.5(+48/+50)
with FALKEN FK 452's (215/40/18 Front, 255/35/18 Rear)

What wheel spacer sizes should I get to give the car a flush appearance?
Someone said it had to do with your offset? i dunno so please enlighten me.
I'm a noob of these kind of technicalities.

And ALL TE-37 owners, please send pics of your set-up and info of sizes, etc.
Also let me know if you had to do any fender rolling, etc...

Last question: Do wheel spacers effect the performance of a car during straight, high speeds? (i use my car for drag purposes only, not track, so I am not worried about their effects during hard turns, etc. except for daily driving purposes)

"For TE-37s, what wheel spacer sizes do you prefer?"

this question cant be accurately answered because everyone is going to have different offsets, requiring different size spacers depending how flush they want it. it also depends if you have any fender work done, it doesnt appear in the pics that you have them rolled or anything, so without modifying the fenders, a 10-15mm would do the job.

yea, im a noob with this stuff. Thanks for the 411...

so judging from my sizes I wrote above, what would you recommend for me for the front and rear? (according to the seller, I have a +48/+50 offset)

Honestly, at those offsets, I would leave it stock. You're already at a +13 in the back. I rubbed with a 20mm spacer on stock wheels (dropped 1"). 13mm would probably be just about right if you didn't want any rubbing and didn't want to mod your fenders. This is without taking into account your wider than stock tires.

Fronts are less important look-wise than the rears. You're already at a lower offset than stock, so I would probably leave those alone as well.

All of that said, if you don't mind rubbing and/or modifying your fenders, you could probably make whatever spacers you want work.

BrockB

thanks... I am willing to modify the fenders to get a flush appearance.

So do you think 15mm F+R would work the best in my case?

And besides rolling the fenders, what else do you have to do to make sure it doesn't rub?

Do wheel spacers create any problems when driving daily, or dragging? or should the "feel" be the same?

48+ and 50+ rear..ya a 15mm would be pretty flush..20-25mm + some more camber for hellaflush lol..
