+1 on stock twists. They look great when darkened up too. Thats why I like the factory GT silver on the ones that the turbo S came with.

Wow! Car looks amazing Dan! The wheels are the business against seal gray. Glad you like them. High quality forged lightweight wheels are an often overlooked item but should be a part of any high performance set up.. Cheers!

Thanks again John. You are definitely a great source for track information and great to buy from (super quick easy deal). Appreciate your contribution to the forum.

For reference to others , I'm low on KWv3's 120mm135mm. Front rad mod (fwd 1"). Slight fender roll. Tires are 235/45 26.4" and 295/35 26.2 " no rubbing. Slight rubbing on full lock. I'll get some 255/315's when the tires are cooked. I believe the wheel offsets are 47F 40R. I run minimal camber for tire wear.

KW sent me some replacement springs on warranty since the original springs on max ride height is well below their published range. I'm going to raise 10mm as my front scrapes too much.

You're welcome Dan. For your information, I ran these wheels with 245/40/18 and 305/35/18s which were 25.5/26.4". That was a killer set up when RWD. I was at 102/124 ride height with zero rub. Yes, offsets are 47/40 on those.

Still loving the design/finish of these brushed titanium Race Tech Forged 18's I recently got. 8x8.5 & 8x11.

ShaunT,
Thanks, looking for 18" and just found out Champion does not make any of their wheels in 18" at this time. Doh!
