I have always wondered what it would look like too. Thanks for proving my theory that it'd look awesome!

Yea 30lb BBS wheels make so much more sense. Fact is TE37's are one of the best wheels you can buy period.

With that said, I'm not a fan of white wheels in general but it definitely doesn't look bad.

Hey we aren't haters. We have been there and done that and moved on as they were not the perfect choice at the time but we thought they were.

Just trying to save a fellow enthusiast from wasting time and money.

True to a point.

TE37s have been around since the 1990s and early 2000s. Very old wheel that Rays keeps producing since we keep buying them.

IMO they need to reintroduce the SE37K or SE37 bronze line for this car. This was the best setup back in the day. When you had these on your widebody NSX nobody even looked at the shitty TE37 wheel, me included.

OP, they look ok. I would run the whites for a few weeks again just to get that different taste in my mouth then back to Magnesium blue.

haha i know what you mean, SE is a classic for sure, but i like the look of the TE's more, i always have! my friend used to have a bronze set of SE for his evo 9 but sold it so he can get TE's...

Looks great!! I can't wait to see more photos!!

I miss my original TE37s in Gloss White. My biggest regret in the 11 years of owning my E46 was selling these wheels....
