Personally, i'm going to pick the wheel which is lightest. Since i'm going to use them specifically as a track wheel. Strength is a concern as well. TE-37 is forged while the TC-III is spun cast. Supposedly the TC-III is lighter than the TE-37 but we;ll see when the batch arrives in the US this month.
Thing for me is that I love the SLs
I have always loved TE37s
I was looking at them when I was looking at a 370Z lol

The thing is, the SL has one more spoke, thus it's a bit stronger (arguable, but it makes sense)

I tried calling the number but wasn't answered
maybe cause work line is blocked :/

Just looked into it:

TE37SL
18 - 9.5: 18.0lbs
18 - 10.5: 19.6lbs

Advan TC-III
18 - 9.5: 19.5lbs
18 - 10.5: 20.9lbs

OMG 18lb wheel.
That. Is. So. Damn. Light

want me to tell him to call you on your cell?

Yeah, i know what you mean... The te-37 is steadily becoming a classic. Now that the SL is even lighter than the standard TE-37... game over!
