Thanks for the reply Soarer.

Can I assume they are avail. here in the US? They look to be one piece correct vs 2 or three?

Would anybody have an idea of the approx. cost for a set of staggered 19's roughly?

Thanks again-

D

Forgive me if I'm wrong but I don't believe they are TE-37s, they look similar, but the TE-37s don't slope down in the middle of the rim as you can see in these pics:

Yea Milla... good eye.

That is what I really dig, the aggressive inward slope of the spokes toward the hub.

For $3200 odd beans with tires is not that bad really. Considering I paid upwards of $4500 for my HRE 543's with tires and they were used.

PM'd D-2 for any info he could share. Do you all know what finshes are offered??

Thanks again-

Doug

Sorry Doug, I did not have computer access for a couple of days. I dont thing these wheels would have that aggressive slope on the front wheel of a GS maybe the rear.

it all depends on the off set..

just put a set of TE's on the EVO last week! 18x9.5's with 265's

great wheel but looks much better with an aggressive offset!


oh! and the wheels on the TS GTR are LE37's i believe.

LE's have the machined lip. =)
