New wheels for the '11

[captdistraction]

Quick shots as its hot out (113) and I'm exhausted. Those centercaps HAVE to go.

Looks good on ya! How much did those bad boys run you? Center camp isn't THAT bad, but a more simple one with no paint would look better.

Those wheels look surprisingly good on that car! Good call! What sizes/offsets did you get? New rubber to go with them?

That color looks really awesome, and the wheels make it look even better.

Maybe I missed it. Are those 18's or 19's? Offset please?

 

[captdistraction]

wheels are 19x8.5/35 and 19x9.5/40 with 255/40/19 PZero rubber on them.

If the 9.5/40 wheels fit up front (eurotek said no) then I'll get 2 more and go to the same fitment all around. Next re-tire I'll go to 275/35/19

For some reason in a couple of those pics they look like 18s.
So are you going to test the rear wheel on the front?
I would be very interested in this result.
I'm planning on ordering those wheels soon and was comtemplating getting 4-19x9.5's.
Thanks for your response and help.
Have a good one.

a lot is this:

-No tire shine
-255/40/19 (which has a bit more sidewall than the preferred 275/35/19)
-facing the sun in most pics
-widest camera angle used was 50mm on 1.6 crop (or 80mm) which will have a lot of telephoto compression going which doesn't help anything.

I'll take some more pics soon, but they look good.

I'll know by tomorrow about the fitments

Here are the pics I was referring to:

19x8.5 F and 19x9.5 R - 245/4/19 F and 275/40/19 R

Fantastic. Thanks. I also am planning on going with 275/35/19 at all 4 corners. I hate side wall....LOL. I can't wait for the rear to front results. Thanks so much!
