you didn't order the right wheels for the back. you have to order the 18x9.5 +25 to get the staggered look. you ordered the 18x8.5 +24 all the way around.

i have had these wheels since mid-march of this year and i continue to get positive comments on them. really can't beat them when it comes to size, fitment/offsets, looks/styling, build quality and the most important factor all, price!

 

rolling... who did you buy your rims from? you defintiely didn't get the correct widths... your wheels should be 18x8.5 in the front and 18x9.5 in the back

sounds like you have 18x8.5s all around

 

yes thats exactly right i told the rep the look i wanted but that wasnt what i got, i ordered from discount tire direct. com he told me to take them to the local america tire co. and they woudl take care of it, but they would treat it as
trading in 2 regular "used" wheels and cost a bunch more uhh
im just kinda stuck with this size it looks like..
o well i guess i have rotatability.. bet . front / rear..

 

heh YOUR great large and detailed pics of your ride/ wheels alone are what made me decide i liked them as well

 

Vitamin,

Is your car lowered in the pic?


I ask you before when you had a different user name.


Tony

 

not lowered

 

vitamin i decided to get same wheels based on your car. i told you this in a pm. i think your car looks hot.

i will lower mine a little bit. less then an inch i think.

 

thanks for the comp!

 

do you have any info/ pics/ instructions how to install the TPS?

how do you know which sensor goes where? or does it matter??thanx!!

 

did any of you guys have any pics of the silver pk6's? all the links on this thread that were photoshopped didn t work.

 

Hey rolling..give our customer care dept a call and see if there is anything we can do for you.

 

Anyone know if these will fit with the Brembo brakes??

 

i would assume so. they fit with my Wilwood BBk.



btw, no one has ever noticed/mentioned the trim that runs around the wheel, it's the color of the spokes! i think that is a neat little detail about these rims, it gives them some sort of uniqueness.

 

can someone please photoshop pk6 on a SS Z? Those rims come in any other color? 19s?

 

Vitamin,

With these rims you have, would you say they are lighter or heavier than the stock 17" (with the tires on)?


Also, what width of the sidwall did you get for the tires.

DiscountTireDirect,

You might want to comment in about the sidewall of the tires. Which would I choose based on the 240/40/18 & 270/40/18. I am looking at the Nitto brand.

Also, do you know how much the rims weight for the front and back?


Tony

 

hey grey matter, i noticed you have the pk6's in silver. got any more pics?

 

i don't know what the factory 17's weigh. for that matter i don't know what the factory 18's weigh either. DiscountTireDirect weighed the PK6s though ask him, there is a thread about it somewhere that he started(i believe). i remember that the fronts were heavier than the rears by a bit. i think both wheels were around 25lbs. the side wall height on my falkens is 40 front and back. the widths are 245 fronts and 275 rears.

 

Vitamin,

I meant to refer to the 93W. But anyways, most of the tires of this size is 93.


Pirelli P-Zero Nero M+S
P245/40ZR-18 93W B

nice very clean!

 

Next post that follows this one has pics of the pk6 on my Silvertone
