Keep in mind, I'm running 3mm front spacers and 8mm rear spacers. The fronts are a must if you have a BBK. I also had to roll my front and rear fenders along with shaving the rear bumper. Not sure if it is needed but it was already done due to my last set of wheels.
More pics to get a better Look at how face 2 looks. It's super concave but definitely not flat. My only regret is I wish they released these sizes for the TA versions.

I'm looking to do the same setup, if you don't mind me asking. what brand, bore size, thread pitch wheel spacer did you use?
I just installed some TE37's on my S2k as well however they are the Evasive spec. However the point of my post is that fitment of these shouldnt actually be too hard as i've had a pretty easy time getting mine to fit.
Specs: 17x9.5 +41
Tire: 245/40/17
I specifically did the 245s to help the fitment a bit. Another reason is so i wouldnt have to run as much negative camber since this is a daily driver and camber wears down tires a bit faster.
I did have to roll my fronts and trim my rear fenders, however with -2.5 degrees of camber all around and dropped about 1.5" the tires fit perfectly. I can still go over speedbumps straight unless its an abnormally high one. No fender crunching as at full lock i have about 1" worth of clearance from tire to fender. Point is...if you're on the fence about getting these, get them. I have a much more aggressive setup and i made the fitment work without much work. With the sizes being offered here, fitment should be a breeze.
Pulling. Soon. Looking forward to mid-end September 2019!

Thank you you for this post and sharing. Good to know. I’m getting off the Huntie-Dumptie bandwagon and getting on the te37 bandwagon instead.
Will update in a few months. Order made and waiting shipment from Japan! Will be running a square set up with 17X9.5. TE37 saga in bronze. Check-in again soon.
Would love to get these wheels in bronze. I would like a square setup and would like to know the specs if thats possible. The square setup i would like to run 255/40/17 all around.
