Default Ive Made My Selection: TSW Mondello's

Ok... so after the better part of this past month that Ive had my 2003 Chrome Silver Touring 350Z 5AT (i just bought it May 8th, 2005), Ive been contimplating(sp?) which rims I wanted to get. I got my final selection down to this:

TSW Mondello's Hyper Black
19x8 Front +20 Offset
19x9.5 Rear +20 Offset

Wrapped in Toyo T1-R's
245/35ZR19 --- Front
275/30ZR19 --- Rear
for some reason when i was checking on the tire sizes they didnt have a smaller size 30 series so i had to go up to 35's and get 245 (largest they had)... if anyone knows other sizes are possible let me know.

Rims and Tires will be in the End of this Month... Expect Pics Middle of July

Total Price: $1657

Here is a picture of what they look like in 20's on a Yellow 350Z:

I got the pic off another wheel distributor's website... if it is a chop i wouldnt know...

but from the looks of it, it doesnt seem that way (shadows are accurate, and it's pretty distinctive between the front and back)...

anyway, what are ya'll opinions on them?

Just from that pic above, i think its a great combination. Im not a fan of the wheel, but if you like it and it makes you grin everytime you look at your car, say walking out of walmart and seeing it in the farthest part of the parking lot, or when your going in and you look back at it to admire it..then go for it..I was thinking about the Toyo's TR-1 but havent heard anything about them yet..Im thinking of going with an all seasonal high performance..only bad thing is that they dont have that cool a$$ looking tread.

just wondering...why not go with 275/35/19s in the rear instead of the 275/30/19? the 35s would match your oem diameter better for your spedometer. And I've heard cases where people use 245/35s up front and 275/30s in the rear and have vdc issues. As for the front, you went with the right sizing with 245/35/19s.

the TR1's dont come in 275/35/19's, which kind of pissed me off... why dont they carry them??? i searched for hours online trying to see if that option was avaliable, couldnt find squat. If anyone can find these tires in 35 series with the 275 width, lead me in the right direction... thanks
