FS: 17x8.5 TE37 White curbed

Ok I need money. Im getting a new set of rims. Weds TC005. So I need to sell my beloved TE-37s. They have the rare Time Attack center caps. extremely light weight at 13lbs per wheel.

They are in need of repair. curbed with rash and dents in rim.

Will get better pics up. but here is an old pic I found of them on my car.




Considering the condition im letting these go for $800 firm. buyer pays shipping via fed ex ground.

Tires are bald and will be removed. im keeping the Volk valvestems.

email me if interested. Solscud(a)gmail(dot)com

I am in Pittsburgh

Oddly the offset is not stamped into the back of the wheel. So i measured it. It looks like it is 46

Here are the pictures.

can you verify that it's real rays? take a picture of the stamps. Thanks!

And also do you rub on the inside when you turn on a 8.5 with such high offset?

Still very interested with money and I will send you a return label as well for the wheels. Thanks.

Pittsburgh. All pittsburgh. I got these in slightly used curbed condition with a GSR Integra back when I was in Socal. I drove these cross country in 36 hours of continous driving to move to Pittsburgh.

Pittsburgh streets are really bad. also I was running 205/40/17 tires. not a whole lot of protection against pot holes.

These are drivable except for one wheel. the tire tread has split from the sidewall.

althought the dents look horrific, they do not let air escape.

i dont think these wheels would fit on a dropped fit unless they have camber kits. im currently running 17x7+40 and the gap between my tire and my fender is almost nothing

What do you mean it won't work on lowered fit? Would it hit on the inner fender well or other rubbing issues?

Interesting, I was running 17x7 +35 with minor rub with natural camber. I'm just worry the inner will rub when I turn left/right

nah. I just wanted my friend's TC005 Weds. He gave me a great deal. I had my fun with the TEs but now for a more civilized wheel size. 15x7 and only 9.9 lbs.

raining, can't do the measurements on the car to see clearance.. still am interested, but Perrnoud is right, it is a little high of a asking price for something that requires a lot of attention to. I know I hate lowballers myself, but can I send you a offer since you want to get rid of them??
