Quote: He might be better off going with a 265 though because the +15 is very aggressive. It's stretched a bit. That why I went with +22. I wanted a beefy tire
I say go with the 275's (pic below)....265's are a bit stretched. All depends on how much camber you'll be running to provide fender clearance.
I'm on 18x10.5 +15

Hey guys any once can give me advice on how to stick the volk racing on my te37sl without bubbles? I've tried one rim so far and major bubbles. Even tried a heat gun to even out and no luck.

Use water in a spray bottle. Lightly coat the wheel, and lightly coat the sticker. Start from one side and rub the water out until the sticker is applied. Then after that take a hair dryer to it to make sure it's completely adhered.

The water layer helps undo any mistakes that get in there.

Agreed. U can also use a water squeegee or any hard plastic card to push out the water bubbles.

No. Just that stupid painted foam strip was a victim. I don't know how you can avoid it

that foam strip is actually seam sealer that has been painted over. if you remove it or if its cracked, you should have a body shop replace it. last thing you would want is rust.

I made a video that explains how to do the fenders pretty well if you need to stop your rubbing.

ps. sorry about the door chime. We forgot to close it

Undercoating spray worked great.

this is exactly what I used. It's impossible to not f up that strip, just hit it with some rubberized undercoating afterwords and you're good to go.
