It would help to list your spec. Assuming you have the common set-up of 9.5 +22 and 11 +34 so you can do 265/295

The caps are def expensive, and you really can't find the SL adapters anymore. I have a set on my car and it was really frustrating to make them even *sort of* fit. The hubs of the F8X extrude too far and doesn't let the adapter sit in the wheel enough.

I had to make a little gasket from some rubber pipe fitting to press them in place. You can't tell but it's never felt right to me. Not having caps was driving me crazy though.

Yeah, I am considering going the "brush off the rust, spray paint" method. Just haven't found time to do it.

No toe arms, just have to turn the coils down and go low.

test fitting some TE's today. in the pic there is a 15mm spacer, but without a spacer its pretty close, it hits the coilovers (tractive), so I may back down to 5mm or something like a 7.5mm spacer.

18x10.5 et 30.

Awesome. Didn't even know rays made TEs in 18x10.5 etc 30. Would be solid for a square set up.

Yeah, I was lucky they had these actually in stock. I wanted bronze but cant be too picky when the wait times are so long these days.

Just a quick question if anyone has a similar setup and is running spacers - what size(s) were safe for you with no rubbing? Thinking of going 5mm front/10mm rear, inputs are appreciated!

You can squeeze slightly bigger than 5mm in front, if you are running 265/35 with 9.5 ET22. However, the 10MM rear might be slightly aggressive but that depends on your alignment specs.

They make them in 10.5 +30 in Saga models, but not in the TE37SLs.
