Need some advice

Hi all,

About to pull the trigger on the 20" TSW Nurburgring Wheels..



But, I need some advice before buying them.. So, here are my questions to you guys! [I have searched the forum and looked around but I still can't decide]

a) Should me getting pfadt springs affect my decision on maximum wheel width, tire size, the right offsets, and whatever else I should be aware of when making a wheel/tire purchase?

b) Is 20x10 the largest width for the rear in these wheels? Also, if there is a bigger width, what is the biggest you could reccomend without any fitting/rubbing problems (with pfadt springs)

c) As for tires and tire size in general.. I was looking at 275 nitto invo's in the front and possibly 305 nitto nt05r's in the rear maybe bigger.. not sure if this would work or if you guys think I could go even higher than that.

Thanks,

Grant

You're asking good questions.

I believe the Nurburgrings come in a 10.5'' wide wheel. But that doesn't help the situation.
The issue is the offsets.

I know a vendor is selling the Nurburgrings with 315/35/20 Nitto Invos. He states the Invos run smaller than other tires. I checked and the 315 Nitto Invo's are actually smaller (less wide) than 305/35/20 Pirellis.

Here's the thread where the vendor is selling the Nurburgrings with 315/35/20 Nitto Invos.

Someone should call Jon at BestWheelDeals and ask him how they fit and if they stick out. I'd like to see some pics from a customer.

It's been reported by an owner that the 305/35/20 Pirelli's stick out a little bit with the Nurburgrings. I'm still waiting to see what the 315/35/20 Nitto Invos look like.

I've been lookiing at a bunch of different options.
1. 315/35/20 Nitto Invos (? will they stick out).
2. 305/35/20 Nitto 555r (drag radials)
2. 295/35/20 (lots of options available that should fit fine)
4. 285/35/20 (a few options - no issues)


If you lower your car you'll want to be more concerned about your tires sticking out past the fender. If you don't lower your car it won't be an issue. It's more of an appearance issue.
