TE37's on Sedan

ok guys, i order the TE37's in 18x7.5 for my NHBP FA5 and i've been told that they don't fit right because of the rear passenger side wheel well have a "bulge" sticking out. i've search the forum for answers but no such luck. if anyone can help me i'd appreciate it!!!

Your question is strangely phrased. Rear passenger side will have a bulge sticking out? You are reffering to the wheel? Why just on one side?

What are the offset of the wheels? with a 225/40/18 tire on a 18" by 7.5" wheel you can have an offset of 38-50mm. 42mm would be nice.


I got 18" by 7.5" TE-37's with 48mm offset on my coupe.

There shouldn't be a problem having those wheels fit. If you have the correct offsets it should be fine. Also, how big are your tires? (Profile)

I ran 18x8 +45 on my sedan with no problems, a wheel is a wheel, brand doesnt justify what is going to "fit"

sorry guys, i'm just going by what spencer from tire rack told me. if you go on there and put in and 07-08 FA5 it will only show up that the 17" TE37 fits. He refered to some type of things "sticking out" on the rear passenger side wheel well. btw, the offset is 45mm. and tires are 215/40ZR18.

Don't get me wrong @ all because the TE-37's are one of my all time fav wheels but I think you should've picked these up.

You would definitely be my hero if you purchased these. Whoever buys these will be my hero haha. I'd pick these up, but I just purchased a set of wheels not too long ago.
