Definitely like the gram lights, would look great. However I think im going to stick with the T7Rs.

What have you guys done for wheel nuts? (Ie. where did you get them), if I've done my research right they are a 1/2" tread.

Doobs....yes I believe they are 1/2 thread. I bought this spline type ones: http://m.ebay.com/itm/311358697915

Hub rings are 71.5mm...I bought these types for my aftermarket rims: http://vi.raptor.ebaydesc.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItemDescV4&item=170918055841&category=42614&pm=1&ds=0&t=1432850659799

I bought from a different seller, but can't find him on ebay anymore? He was a super nice seller too :/

Can you get a 19x11under a sedan ? Offsets available from 40 to 52.

I think control blade modification needs to be done. I think theres a thread on here or AFF that goes into detail (replacing rear control arms or something?). But once this is done you can run 305 or 315 or something crazy

Stripes on here should know....hes running a group buy on fancy rims...and a few members with FGs that hes dealt with have spot on offsets (from the last GB)

I think for 11" you need +43 with the mod?

10" +40 I think works with a slight roll and 285 tyres max? But be careful cause each tyre manufacturer has different actual sizes I.e. I think I read that toyo r888 in 265 is apparently actually 285mm

But wait til someone confirms before taking my word for it :P

Call me stupid but why go to all the hassle of running an 11 when a 10.5 is proven to fit? Will fit basically the same there's too.

Unless your wheels ONLY come in 11, or if you really wanted to go wide don't be a push and cut/flare the rears to run 12s

Car in question is a SEDAN.....I'd like to see 12s fit in there :P

Will 10.5" fit in sedan no probs? I would think it would poke or foul on control blades?

8.5 +30 front 9.5 +38 rear will be good doobs.

Looking at the Rays Gram Lights 57C6s now on Perfect Run, opinions on them? About 9.2kg each apparently

Just to let you know. One of the guys that bought a set of the custom Forge Wheels OEM+ Rspec group buy that I ran got the following 19x9 +25 with 255/35/19 fronts, rears are 19x10 +43 with 295/30/19. This is with Michellin Pilot Super Sports all round and has been lowered on Shockworks coilovers with no scrubbing. He had to space his control blades, but no guard rolling required.

I'd post the photos but they don't display on my work computer so I can tell if they post or not. But here's his post in the AFF thread with photos of the stance prior to being lowered.
