Poke with Volk TE37SLs
 
For those owners who have equipped their Zs with Volk TE37SLs, I'm interested in knowing the amount of "poke" that occurs on the front wheels. Using a number of different wheel offset calculators that are available on-line, if I compare the stock set-up of the sport version equipped with the 9" wide
19" wheels and a +47 offset fitted with 245/40/R19 tires to the TE37SL set-up with 9 1/2" wide 19" wheels and a +22 offset fitted with tires of the same size, the calculations show the TE37 wheels sticking out further than the stock wheels by about 31 mm. That's like placing a 30 mm spacer on the stock wheels ... which I would think would create a good deal of poke. I've looked at some of the pics of this set-up, and the poke isn't that obvious. However, sometimes pics can be deceiving. So my question is to those who actually have this set-up, and if they could please comment on whether the TE37s stick out noticeably beyond the fender edge since I would like an after-market wheel set-up that avoids significant poke. Thanks for your input.

I am running TE37s 19x9.5 +22 in the front and I think the stance is perfect.

One thing to watch is negative front camber. When I ordered my foregstars I went with the offset recommended, little did I know that recommendation is for cars with more camber then I am able to have. I can get you a picture of mine but do not remember the offset off the top of my head

I have no poke in the front

I actually think I can add another 5mm spacer in the front to be perfect for me

That offset...

19x9.5 +22 F
19x10.5 +12 R

has poke if you are at stock height. Once lowered with proper tires and camber adjustment, it'll look proper

This. I prefer +30 front, allows you to run 275 up front easier

Agree … but the 9.5" TE37SLs are only available with a +22 offset. Hence the reason I asked owners with this set-up to comment.
