Wow, didn't take long for Rota to rip the design for the new TE37Vs! They even used the same letter designation.

i see they do the shakotan in a 15x8 +0, i might have to get a set for my 318is if i can get the grids over the caliper easily enough on the 2.7 car. the 15x9s are probably too extreme with how low id need to go to have them look good and with how shit my local roads are :(

If I get these I plan to run a 5-10mm spacer at the back to give it the poke to match the front guards. And then a grind at the caliper where you marked in the photo. I really want to avoid spacers at the front, I don't want to be shelling out more money for 4 spacers 2 is enough for my budget . But if it has to be done then i'll have to note the bullet because I really like these wheels along with the rota shakotans 15X9 et0 that funfgun is running but those wheels need more mucking around to get it to fit but with some negative camber and lots of stretch would look titties

becuase there is less backspace with low offset, this brings the spokes of the wheel closer to the hub.
With my Grid V 15x8 +0 they touch on the backside of the wheel approx where ive marked
, on the inner part of the caliper.
by grinding a small amount off the edge of the caliper and smoothing it, along with a 3mm spacer i should be able to run them no problems.

is it just the fronts? and where exactly do the touch i'm getting confused how that happens with low offset wheels

I have a set of Grid-V (chrome lip with black centre) in 15x8 +0 that ill be having a play with in the next few days, did a qiuck test and they just touch my stock calipers, so im gonna have to do some shaving of the caliper but its nothing too major.
Will get some photos up when i get them on.

Here is a thread with his Alpine white E30 with the Rota Grids, which looks freakin sexy imo
