Just ordered wheels and tires from Jim at Discount Tire Direct. I highly recommend working with him, he made sure to place my orders separately so my wheels will be here next week, despite the tires being on backorder until the end of the month.

 

Mine will be in on Friday, and I just ordered star specs for them 225/45/17 up front with 265/40/17 in the back

 

Just got my set, 17x9" 63mm Gunmetal x 4, they weigh 18.4 - 18.6 lbs each (digital shipping scale, it might be .4 high, I weighed a 15 lb dumbell at home before trying the wheels, and it read 15.4), still a great deal, but not 17 lbs as stated earlier in the thread. $100 off discount, plus free shipping, makes these a pretty sweet deal, and will look great against the white S. Having my, 120 run 255 x 4, Kooks mounted up at my work.

Got mine mounted up today, the matte bronze. 17x7.5 and 17x9. The car was still sitting up high as I took the pics like 30 feet from getting off the jacks. So it sits lower normally. Ill take more pics once I wash the car.

They are cool rims. They go from gray, to bronze, to rose gold, to gunmetal depending on the light. 215 45s and 255s 40s. No rubbing. Lowered on Eibach springs.

 

What would be the ideal spacer to bring the 17x9 +63 rear with 255s as flush as possible with out rolling the fender? 10mm, 13mm, or 15mm?

 

 

Props to Discount Tire Direct. One of the wheels showed up with a curb mark like scratch on the lip (looks like it was dropped at the factory, the boxes were still in great shape). I called them up, explained the problem, they shipped my new wheel that day, and sent me a shipping label to have the old wheel picked up. Sucks I have to wait another week to put them on the car, but props for GREAT customer service.

 

so after another delay they came in while I was on my 2 weeks in the field. Already been delivered to my shop with tires ready to be mounted as soon as I get back.

 

what Lug nuts are people running with these?

 

i'm using the stock chrome colored ones. I was thinking of purchasnig blue or red lugs, but once I put the rims on I kind of liked the chromes.
