They move more TE37's of all variety than anyone in norcal. Most of CA.

I'm sure he can help you figure it out and get you the parts too. He's also in your neck of the woods.
Awesome thanks for the reference!

I am not surprised. The japanese companies are difficult to get spare parts for because:
1) They don't stock ANYTHING
2) They hate selling individual parts. They want to sell stuff in a complete set, the way THEY intended it to be bought.
3) Their definition of "special color" is . . anything but the one or two colors we need is "standard"

Your only other alternative is to pray and get lucky on Yahoo Japan, i guess

Also - i forgot, the SLs aren't "supposed" to have center caps, which is why the adapters were created. Same for the TE37 Ultra Track Editions

EDIT:
Crap! i just checked Evasive and the adapters alone are $60 EACH?!

Yup! The SL Center Cap Adapters are $256 MSRP alone and then you have to buy center caps. As you could probably assume, we dont sell those all the time. Its only if you just HAVE to have center caps on your SLs.

I mean, don't get me wrong - they do improve the look, i can't stand the center-cap-less look

thankfully, my Ultras came with center caps that matched and that model doesn't need an adapter

EDIT:
It does look odd with the different colored hub surface

I just want to find a way to either hide or eliminate the rust that builds up where the center cap should be on the wheel. I've seen some people spray paint that area so maybe i'll go down that route too. But center caps would have been nice

Can anyone rocking 10.5 TE and 305 rear take some close up pictures of the wheel? Deciding between 305 or 295.

They will fit and be flush no problem. Hell I run 315 on 18x11+ 18 and it is pretty dang close to flush probably with a couple of mm.

Noted, I just don't want too fat of tire where tire poke out more than the rim itself. I like either flush with rim or a very little stretch.

I love the red lining on the wheel to match the nismo red.
Red calipers all day, every day for me.
