Will do. Thank you all for the compliments! The car also came with a Tubi exhaust which I really like.

Thumbs up
One of our lucky customers rolled out on this nice set of SSR wheels....

They didn't look that great in the box but they really jumped out once we mounted them!

Any issues running those tire sizes with AWD?? I thought a setup like that was not-recommended...

I run the same setup on mine. The set is within the 3% variance and has no issues.

For the record the 245/35/19 and the 295/30/19 would be a closer match to the factory specs vs. the 305 according to my calculations....

When I say this I mean in relation to each other, but of course this is a taller set-up.

Yup agreed. I ran the 305's as I initially had a 12" rear wheel on my car. Now I have 11" rears so when I replace them i'll drop them to a 295 rear.

It all depends on the actual revs per mile of each tire since there is so much variation between manufacturer.

Is the front taller than the rear?
