Does anyone have pics of Titanium TE37's?

Just like the title says. Preferably on a NBP 3g TL, which is what I have. If not then any other car. Reason I ask is because the place where i recently ordered bronze TE37's from has to order them from Japan for my offset. Estimated wait time of 45-90 days. They called me today and said they got in a set with the exact specs, except in Titanium. They said I could have them now for $30 more per wheel if I wanted, but to let them know quick. I have not been able to find pics of titanium TE37's on the web. Its a special order color, which I guess explains the $120 premium. If anyone has pics of titanium volks, that would be greatly appreciated. What would you guys do? Wait the 45-90 days for bronze, or get the titanium for $120 more?

I think I answered my own question.

One of Volk's newer colors. The actual color is called Titanium Gunmetal. It is a matte finish...(very interesting). Should I rock these or Bronze? Maybe I should rock the matte finish titanium to be the first and stand out...

Would love to hear everyone's opinions.

My car is NBP. I think these would look good on my car, but what do I know. I'm partially color blind....

Any other opinions?

I have Volk GT-V with that color, Titanium Gunmetal Matte. The color looks awesome on a darker car. That's the car in my avatar. More pics in my thread:

..any Volk will do.

What offset are you trying to go with? 42?

I have seen bronze CE38s on a NBP and they look good..so this new finish shouldnt be a problem.

Well I decided to get these wheels. Offset of +35. Now I'm just deciding on the size of the tires. I already told em to ship the wheels with 245/40/19 tires to me. Now I'm wondering if I should call them tomorrow and change the tires to 245/35/19. No one here runs the 40 series on 19's as far as I know. I assume they will fit since people run 245/35/20 and they fit without rubbing. I was hoping not to lower the car and the 40 series tires woulda filled the wheel gap a bit more and provided extra cushioning. Are these tradeoffs worth the performance decrease? I have a 6mt so I guess it would be pretty stupid for me to get the 40 series tires and decrease my performance. Anyone have any opinions on this?
