Thanks for the info
No prob on the number, was it an aggressive roll/flat roll?
I'm curious how close this fitment is.
Also, are you running upper or lower ball joint?

I'll be running them soon but I already rolled my fenders to be safe.


949:
Thanks for the quick shipping.

Seems like you guys made a small change in painting process.
I used to have the Gen4 15x10 Tungsten in my Miata and those wheels were painted even where the lug nut goes.
Paint build ups around the lug nuts were really annoying whenever I was removing the wheels.
You guys got rid of that in the new batches! I love the minor details and really appreciate the change!

LOVE the new Beryllium color <3

I'm currently running the 17x10 +52 setup square on a car that sees around 60/40 track/street use. I have had no problems or rubbing at full lock, which I only see in parking lots. I don't think I've ever had my steering wheel at full lock on track except for when I've spun out and my feeble attempts at catching it were far too late - even then no contact.

I think there might be contact at full droop when the car is jacked up in the air with the steering wheel at full lock - I haven't tested that condition, but don't care (it's a track car, not a rally car. lol).

Good luck, I'm fairly certain that these will match your application - they have been and are being run by a fair number of track cars in a square setup.

I 'm getting ready to order a set of Beryllium 17x9 ET55 from TEGIWA, for my s2k to fit 255/40 tyres. Are hubcentriccenteringrings and valves included? Should I buy them separately?

Thanks!
