I just wanted to say congrats, and I've been waiting for you to get these installed before I pull the trigger on the standard rts everyone else has. Any idea when you might have them installed?

Chevrolade · 02-24-2014, 10:21 PM

They are nice, any idea on how to trick the tpms light on our cars?

Deezee · 02-24-2014, 10:55 PM

There are a few threads detailing how to install tpms in the welds. Once I decide between the two ill be posting them up also.

Chevrolade · 02-24-2014, 11:11 PM

I thought the light still comes on being that Mh only requires 35psi

Deezee · 02-24-2014, 11:25 PM

I could be mistaken, but I think the light comes on at 24psi? I know my c6 did

I really want to wait for the new M/T front radial skinnies. I've had them on order since before Christmas. I'm hoping they will be delivered in early-mid March. I will mount everything up once I have my front tires!!!

I ran TPMS on my "old" set of 17" Welds, and I plan on doing it with these too. And he's right, I think the light would come on somewhere around 26-28 psi. I usually ran my rear DR's at about 30-32 psi….(on the street).

Deezee · 02-25-2014, 06:38 AM

I know it might be asking a lot here, but any chance I could get you to throw them on one side and post sone pics? Like I said, I'm waiting to see a set on a camaro to pull the trigger. I'm pretty set on your old style, but I'm interested to see if these look better. Too bad your tires aren't here yet. Thanks

Deezee · 02-25-2014, 07:59 AM

Id also like to know your thoughts on all the clearances in the rear. I know you run the bmr lca's and I'm wondering if these wheels will require them as well.

Actually, my car isn't even here yet! It's still being transported from ND to FL. It will probably be 2-3 weeks before I'm in a position to try them on.

Clearances will be the exact same with these as the older S71's (same sizes and offsets). I would definitely recommend running the BMR LCA's with these. Or, at least notching your stock arms as a temporary solution. These wheels are too expensive to take a chance of gouging them up!!!

Deezee · 02-25-2014, 08:43 AM

Will do thanks! Honestly I love all of them. Maybe ill try the S77's just to be different? Ugh decisions....

Denis · 02-25-2014, 08:43 AM
