It does look killer. Is even rear pulled? Or just rolled in the rear with -3" or is it more than 3?

My rear is actually cut in lieu of a roll + your traditional tab reclocation and bumper trimming. The cut buys you about another 5-6mm from a roll. The camber is set at 3.0.

And that's on x9 +45 with 255s? Sorry if it's a repeat question, I have the same set up but I'm looking into raising the car a bit to something like this

What's up guys and gals, so I was successful in setting this up a couple years ago when TE37RTs came out and this time I'm trying something new. Ive since loved my Concave TE37s and will never sell them unlike the many rare sets of wheels I've owned over the years. My dream is to own a set of Concave Volk Bronze TE37s(and I'm sure I'm not alone here:-)) that fit on a non wide-body S2000. After patiently waiting for a couple of years Rays never offered the RTs or the SLs in the classic Volk bronze. Finally I decided to give Evasive Motorsports a call and pick Josh's brain. Good news! He said if we can get 5 people on board, Evasive Motorsports will put in an order for what is essentially a One-off wheel:

17X9.5 +40 Original Model TE37 in the famous bronze finish!!!

So who is interested in this once in a life time opportunity?

So far her is who is in on this GroupBuy:
1)S2kslav(1 set, and possibly 2 spares wheels)
2)Foxraycn(2 wheels only, if I get the 2 spares)
3)Tmkpres
4)Guamie
5)



1) Why this spec...?

a) It's the only way you will have a functional concave face TE37 with out massive tire stretch or body work.



b) This is a great track/auto X set up, the 255/40 or 245/40 series UHP tire sits perfectly on the 9.5 wide wheel. slightly stretched enabling better steering response and minimum deflection


c) This wheel WILL clear popular BBKs- I run a 328mm Stoptech BBK myself, and have tried numerous templates and confirmed that even the 355mm Stoptech 6pot BBK will clear the spokes and will just need a 3mm spacer or so to clear inside the barrel, this is insane! I will confirm the AP racing kit clearance this weekend. (See caliper clearance in pictures below of my TE37RTs in 17x9.5 +40)

328mm 4 POT Stoptech BBK Template-




355mm 6 POT Stoptech BBK Template-




and the 328mm kit on my s2k-







4)This spec is very similar to the popular 17x10 +45 ce28 that a lot of guys are tracking on

2) Making them fit:

Some will say it is hard to fit, however, my buddy was able to fit these on a 245/40 star spec and a pretty slammed ride height, with a slight fender pull in the front and a roll and slight pull at the rear. He has no rubbing issues.
heres our cars next to each other with same spec wheels




I fit these with a fat 255/40 AD08R with Downforce front fenders, and a fully pulled rear. I'm pretty low as well, and have some minimal rubbing over big dips, which Is the rear bumper that I need to trim some more. We both drive our cars hard, and take full advantage of this spec.

and heres some photos of the beautiful Volk bronze TE37, and what the wheels will look like





I am not a dealer, just a guy who always wanted the classic Concave TE37 on a stock bodied S.

Spread the word, anyone seriously interested PM me. Update***Evasive will need a deposit, $1000 Non-Refundable, Josh is getting back to me on the exact wheel cost this week. The wait might be rough(3-5months), but I know it will be worth it, and we only need 2 more people to get this order started, and get this set for mid season.


Thanks for reading this novel, and let's make this happen!

To my knowledge a 3mm spacer is safe to clear the urge AP racing 299mm brake kit. The 328 ap kit should clear without a spacer
