Re: New Wheels

Looks great!

If you could add info regarding the wheel size(s), wheel offset(s) and tire size(s), it helps people to understand better how a particular wheel might look on their car, with similar dimension/sizes.

Re: New Wheels

Where did y0ou buy those wheels? I got a set off ebay but I want the larger wheels like you have on the rear. Mine are 17x9 all the way around.

Re: New Wheels

Copied from that thread:

17x9 +45mm
17x10.5 +44mm

With the +44mm offset on the 17x10.5's, the outside of the wheel will sit almost exactly where the 17x11 50mm ZR1's sit. It will have 1/2" less backspace, so it should avoid the issues of having to cut the jounce bumper bracket or hammer the inner fender liners.

And your tires are 275/40-17 front and 315/35-17 rear, I assume?

Tire Rack also lists those wheels. The correct color is "Anthracite" according to all the other sources except "Tom's" (he corrects it later in the thread).

Re: New Wheels

Ok, well.....If you look on the manufacturer's site, the name of the color is Anthracid. You are correct about the size tires I am running.
