Volk Le37 Polished black rims

I was looking at these rims for awhile now, and the dealer that i was talking to over the phone told me that the 18x7.5 size should clear the brembos and its more a an aggressive set up..he said there is a possibility the wheel could rub?? Im a noob to offsets and all that..so which size is the right size to get to clear the brembos on the 6spd tl's if i want this wheel? I couldnt tell if this guy knew what he was talking about..Thanks guys

btw..i know im supposed to be getting the 18x8.5 size, but he said that wouldnt work for some reason. The reason I think he's making stuff up is cause he did tell me he had the 18x7.5 in stock. Maybe he just wanted to sell me whatever he had left to clear space? He quoted me at 2300.00 includes, center caps, valve stems...what u guys think?

A 19x8.5 +43 fitment would be optimal. 3 month waiting period. They will definitely look sick.

Do not get a 7.5" wide wheel! From the rear your wheels will look like bicycle wheels (ie. too narrow). Get at least an 8 or 8.5" width.

I was looking into that rim before I bought my TE-37... you should go with 19X8.5 with a +35 offset, it will clear the brembro. The price he quoted you on for 18X7.5 is way too much... I was quoted at $2400 for the 19X8.5".

I would suggest special ordering it and wait the 3 months, 18"s dont look that nice on the Tl and pluss by 9" is a lil bit too wide for it I think... 8.5" is perfect.

the only reason i was gonna go 18" is cause i was gonna get the aspec suspension, and i wanted to be in the same spec as the aspec package...so 9" would be too wide?

19"s will still fit with the A-Spec suspension, I mean if you're going to buy some rim, buy something that doesn't look stock.... I have 19" with a 2.5" drop.
