Default New shoes

My Work Miesters arrived last week and although I havent had a chance to put them on (waiting for tires) I figured I'd snap a few quick shots with my phone. I got 19x9.5 and 19x11 +17 all around. I will be going with Nitto Invos for rubber-I was thinking about a 305/30/19 rear but I'm kind of torn for what size I should go with on the fronts. By the time my tires come in I'll likely already be deployed so there's a strong chance I may not see these on the car for another 16-17 months. Another point of this thread was to express my pleasent transaction with Ravspec. Their customer service is top notch, the staff is friendly and it was an all around delight from start to finish. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone. On to the pictures

Sick Wheels! One of my favorite wheels by far. If you're going with a meaty setup, I'd consider 255/35/19 or 275/30/19 for the fronts and the 305/30/19 for the rear.

Thanks for the compliments/support, it means a lot. I feel pretty messed up posting these without them being mounted now. I'll be sure to revive this soon-to-be very old thread as soon as I get them bolted on.

I'm living in the land of beer...I've tried so many different types, it would blow your mind lol but nothing tops Bud Light IMO.

Hey Tim:

Thanks for the post I am glad we can be at your service. Make sure you send us some nice install pictures.

I know the wait was a bit longer than expected, but it's well worth it for a great custom JDM wheels.

Just for the record - Great wheels. Excellent sizes to boot.

Were these a custom order (I assume so)? How long to deliver?

these took about 6.5 months to recieve. I could have gotten them shipped earlier but I had ravspec hold them for a month as I was out of town on bidness.
These were a custom order. I can't remember the disks that were selected but I can find out. I put one of the rears on last night and it sticks out about .75". I know it'll tuck in a bit when the suspension gets some weight on it but I assume more camber adjustments will definately be needed. I'm on the common tokico/tanabe gf210 setup plus I did the spring mount mod so it should sit pretty nice on these.

You went with T DISK front (max caliper clearance) and O Disk Rear (Max Lip).
