I'm hoping (as most of us are) it's got the offset for Skylines, Supras, etc. I hate using those flat Civic/Integra offset TE-37's from Fujimi. I'll post pics as soon as mine arrive.

I don't think any US shops will have them for a few weeks. They just got released in Japan. Not all the shops in Japan have them yet.

Well, the real 19" TE-37 has the offset for Skylines, etc. and I doubt Aoshima would screw us over with their wheels like Fujimi does. My LHS usually doesn't get the new items for 1-2 months. I already pre-ordered (and paid) for some sets even though they don't know when they'll be getting their supply.

I really hope they have the offset of the Skylines, S15's and so on.... I hate the regular ones from Fujimi!

In some form or another you're going to pay for freight shipping. Possibly twice since they go from Japan to the US distributor (once) and then from the distributor to the LHS (twice). Depending on the LHS you might get hit with a profit charge.

Re: NEW RELEASE: Aoshima S-Parts 19" wheels are here!

Wow....Aoshima did a nice job. Obviously the TE37's are the offset. All the wheels looks NICE..

Wish they made some of those rims in 16-18" model too. Sometimes 19" can be too big for certain cars.

In complete contrast i noticed Fujimi are giving us yet more wheels we don't really need or want;

R34 GT-R Wheel
Lamborghini Countach LP500R
