And if you buy from them-dicker. They will move on any price and will mix up a staggered package for you.
Thanks for the compliment!

I have these exact same wheels for my winter setup. They are TSW Bremmas right? I still have stock wheels/tires for the unfrozen months. Even though they are my winter setup I think I am going to order the MB centers for em. If I gotta roll in snow, at least I'll roll in style...kinda
Bump Back from the dead!
I will try and post my set up once i get her together!
Its getting warm, there has to be more new looks! Lets see whats been cooking over the winter!

*I am looking to keep the same size in the front but want a19x10.5 in the rear. Reason is I went with a wider tire in the rear 275/30/19 for more traction off the gate at the track but started experiencing what feels like some tire roll on the rim when taking curves at highway speeds. If I increase the width from 9" to 10.5" in the rear this should stretch the tire in a similar manner as the stock set-up. Does this sound right or will I run into other issues? Thanks in advanced.*
275/30-19 is recommended for 9-10" wheels. It will stretch over a 10.5" but you lose some handling ability. A 275/35-19 works for 10.5" but then the diameter is greater...rubbing issues.
The thing is I have already lost handling because the tire rolls on the stock back rim which if I'm not mistaken is 9" wide. Whenever I take turns the tcs comes when with the stock tire I would easily double the speed on the same turn before the tcs would kick on. Maybe I'll go with a 10" instead of 10.5".
I loved the looks of Tsw doningtons I had on my car but the wear and tear on them from having a flush wheel face was horrible they were covered in chips after one summer. Better pics in my gallery. I think said and done after lug bolts and spacers I had $1250 in them.
These are nice I had looked into them but they didn't make the rear in a 10 or 10.5" width. Just wondering why are you using spacers do they not make them with the correct off set?
No not the exact off set I have a thread out there some where with a list of everything I had to buy but they will fit and run fine on the car with out a spacer I just didn't like the look with out them. The one picture in my gallery you can see the gap caused by the off set. These wheels added 10,000 miles or more of tire life. Our stock wheels are horrible on tires there is a thread about it also. Something that was not mentioned in this thread that is so important! ((Never ever just buy wheels and lug bolts put them on and drive the car! Even taking it to a shop could turn the same results)) Threading an over sized lug bolt into the rear hub will destroy your ebrake system when the bolts are even just torqued down but driving the car will surely destroy it. I order over sized lug bolts, did some math, and cut them to length. Then I ran the bolts in gently and gave the wheel a spin while jacked up to make sure nothing hit inside the hub. After finding the right length I cut the rest the same length and repeated the process. Using undersized lug bolts is a horrible situation as well do your home work or take it to a shop and explain this before assuming they know. Choosing a different wheel style over a half an inch is a bit meticulous you can easily make up the difference with a different tire size. Some one on here I believe was running a 285 I was running 265s those wore a lot better and hooked up way better.
