New Wheels Installed!

Well I finally made a decision and went with a set of wheels that are not common here on this board but I love the way they look. They are TSW Londrina's gunmetal centers with a polished lip.

Front
19x8
ET 35
Conti Sport Contact 3's 225/35/19

Rear
19x9.5
ET 45
Conti Sport Contact 3's 255/30/19









I will give a review once I have some time on them!! Hope you like, I do.

Very nice! Should rub slightly front and rear if lowered more than 10mm, but shouldn't be bad. Looks like the Contisports run fairly small so that should help. Or just don't lower.

So far I am loving them. The ride is so much better than the stock Run Flats, but we all know that. I did notice some slight rubbing on the right rear on heavy dips. That was with basically just me in an empty car. I will see if it persists and if so I will probably just have the fenders rolled.
