TSW & Nitto package deal

If any body wants a deal on all 4 wheels or even just the back please call me do not message me at 209-605-4720.

I had these TSW nurburgring 9" in the front and 10.5" the tires are front 275/40/20" and 315/35/315 in the back installed at 4:00 4-19-2012 and love the wheels and tires but the 10.5" sticks out a 1/2"
and my OCD cant handle it.

I drove them home 15 miles and its parked in the garage, going on 3 day tripp and car will be parked in the garage, SO i can hook some one up here fat or return them and deal with it that way but i thought to offer them up for some one and save them some money. I have a whipple going on monday and wanted maximum traction is why i went this route, but im going to tone it down a bit as i do preatty much drive to church on sundays and put the car away. so the straight race and drifting tires a little out of my legue. the set list at $3k pluse and then tax ill do $2,500 or best offer call quick.

damn.. didn't realize 10.5 would stick out.. are you dropped at all? I have a one inch drop, really need to see one of these in person...don't know if I would care for this look or not.

How are the 9s up front?

Who did you order from? He or she should have told you the 10.5" (Nurburgrings) would stick out. And I hate to say it, but you're not the first that has found this out the hard way.

I've been running the TSW Nurburgrings for over 2 years (20 x 9.0 front, and
20 x 10.0 rear). This is the setup that has become popular.
I run 305/35/20 Nitto NT555Rs out back (they come out to almost flush with the fender). Anything wider would not be recommened with the 10" Nurburgrings.

ya does suck man. i know last week when i ordered my rims, the guy said 10.5 with my tire would sick out to far. so we went with 10s.

really doesn't surprise me that TSW didn't tell you. i know the guy at my local shop was looking at sizes and in his head sizing them up. if it went for them i would have bought 10.5s. because i didn't know either

I originally purchased the 10.5's, but when I put them on the car it was evident they would stick out. I was lucky that I ordered them through discount tire because they allowed me to return it and ordered me a 10 inch. Your best bet would be to dump what you have and go with the F-14's if you want the best fit for a 315. You can get away with it on the 10 inch, but it is pushing it.
