Default Re: New Wheels in, need help

Great looking wheels. I ordered the same style for mine but in silver. Sadly, after waiting nearly three months for the rears to ship out.. A shipping snafu has caused them to be dropped off at a Estes shipping hub in Oklahoma!
Im going to be running 18x8.5 up front and 19x9.5 out back. I have a pair of 12mm H&R spacers in case I need to push them out towards the fenders in back. I anticipate a little rubbing up front with the extra width,during full lock to lock turns. All in all should be fine.
How certain are you that they use conical lug bolts? I was told by TSW that all of the Max wheels in a 5x112 bolt pattern used ball seats as they were going to be designed to use the stock Audi/VW/Mercedes lugs. Of course, this was before the Max wheels were anything more than a "coming soon" teaser pic last fall.
Good luck with everything! Going to look great when you get them mounted up!
