i search and i went back 6 pages. i cant find anything. has anyone ever put the 17's on the TC. and do they fit ok. i have someone who maybe be interested in them for winter wheels. thanks guys

 

wont work , wont clear the brembo's

 

some guy tried to put 18 inch SS/SC wheels on his car but i think they hit the calipers. they dont have the proper back spacing to clear the brakes

 

thanks guys

 

i have an ss 2.4l and just bought t/c rims. would they fit still?

 

Yup. It's the other way around that there's a problem because the SS/TC has big brakes.

 

duuuudee, yesssss hahaha, you just saved my night. i was like dude, i did not just blow 400$ for these sexy things

so for reference

ss s/c = +40
ss t/c = +42

i got eibach sportlines, so i'm thinking of matching some 235/40/18s on this set of new wheels =]

 

I tried that and they didnt clear by quite some bit. I orded 15mm spacers from gravanatuning and im waiting on those. Hopefully they clear the brakes.

 

Sounds like you got a damn good deal too. $400 for a set? How many miles are on them?

 

can you put spacers on to clear the brembos on the TC?

 

A user from Toronto did it I think, but I can't remember his name nor the thread.

 

im positive spacers will work, just have to reset the wheel TPMS some how. Im just going to take it to the dealer or have Tune Time performance use HPT and take it out for the time being. I dont believe my 05-06 SS/SC wheels have the TPMS

 

im going to say this works, so somone should trade me their tc rims for my 2.4 rims

 

200 miles =]
haha i'm stoked!

 

what would miles matter??

 

A set of new TC wheels with only 200 miles on them for $400? Hell of a deal.

 

thats an amazing deal seeing how i sold mine for a 1000 with out tires!!!

 

i want some tc rims!!!!!!

 

200 or 40,00 if they have no curb rash who cares. i dont get it everone always asks for the mileage. it dont matter unless is a major engine part

 

yea thats true lol

 

You must bang fat chicks

 

17' SS/NA rims will fit. It has been done buy a few here already, I sold mine to a local member who test fitted them on his SS/TC in my parking lot. It fits. It's tight, only around 3 mm clearance for the brembos but it fits.

I'd put on a small spacer like 3-5mm.

uhhh hows that make sense. whats gonna wear out??? tell me i wanna know.

 

Ummm... Its a moving part, under load.... I have seen lots of rims with stress cracks, and lug hole issues...
90% of the time I am sure you will be right, and there will be nothing wrong, but you can still run into problems and defects with a used rim.

 

nothing wrong with a chick with meat on her bones.
