so they will clear the Brembos ?

do u have to use spacers ?

MB Wheels Seve X 17x7 do _NOT_ fit without spacers, 5mm - 7mm is my estimate. I purchased these thinking they would fit:

You should get some 3mm and see if it will give you enough space. For me 5-7mm would be pushing my comfort zone.

I am pretty certain 3mm will not do the trick. I stuck a piece of playdo in between the rim/hub and a quick measurement of the rim against the caliper was just under 5mm... so 5mm MIGHT clear it, 7 will. I'll probably be sending these rims back.

Enkei's new wheel, the PFO1, will be released after SEMA. 5 split spokes, 18X8-110 and clears the Brembos. Will be lighter, don't know exactly, than the RPF1 and priced about the same. No pics yet. Stayed tuned. Our calling and emails to King did the trick.

I'm not much on chrome wheels. Idk i personally think theyd look better powdercoated gunmetal or black.

Found these just recently listed over at Tire Rack:

Borbet LV5:


I ordered a set yesterday. User Red Guts said he has them already and they fit with ~1/2" of clearance. I'll take some pictures when I get mine in if no one posts any before.

i have the ENKEI AKP's in 18's Black and i like them but I would love to find something more flashy in mainly chrome or chrome with black in an 18. Has anyone found any other wheels that fit? I had a set of Lexani's on my 06 cobalt but left them on my other car when i traded it. so i dont know if they would have fit or not. thanks

These are suppose to fit the SS/TC from,

Discount Tire Direct

I checked with our fitment department and it looks like the 17x7.5 5-110/112 +42 Drag DR33 and DR34 will clear the SS/TC Brembo Brakes.

Update each wheel with how much they weigh!

motogp34

U will have to call Discount Tire for that one...

Red Guts

Yes. They fit. : Cross post

motogp34

Yes, at $150 rim ....

Koz

Those look pretty good, especially at the $110 price (silver finish). You're sure they'll fit? I may call up Discount and have them price me a set with some winter tires

motogp34

They swore they would fit, i have a set on the way...

Does anyone actually have the TSW Nogaro's installed on a TC?

1badBlueberrySC

Any word on if the ASA JH8's fit the TCs??? I love those wheels and have the opportunity to trade for them...

motogp34

YES, They do fit...

ICE_SS09

Just wanted to confirm what motogp34 already posted, and also give a few pics. I just had the DR34's with Hankook Icebears W300's installed on Saturday at Discount Tire. They fit without any problem (about 1/4" - 3/8" clearance over the Brembo's). I did try to get the DR33's first, but Discount Tire called the manufacturer and said they were having issues clearing (no idea why they keep them on the web site as being available for our cars)....so we went with the DR34's instead: http://www.discounttiredirect.com/di...7.5&vid=014631

All up it came to ~$990. You can get them a little cheaper through DiscountTireDirect, but I didn't feel like dealing with shipping, plus the local Discount Tire dealer has always been pretty good to me....so I paid a little more to have someone else do the work.

Anyway, they're not sexy wheels by any stretch, but they'll work for a "cheap" beater set of winters.

I have been asking the same question.

I really want to find a local place that will let me test fit, but no one so far. Everyone wants them paid in full with no refund unless defective.

Rafito

Would the 18inch Pontiac solstice gxp rims fit our cars? I think they have a 55mm offset...

BRHumbert

Im almost positive that my local discounttire will let me test fit them if I agree to purchase them if they fit. The only problem is coming up with the $1K they want for the 4 wheels. My other concern is that I have noticed in some pictures that the spokes on the Nogaros are so thin that half of the rotor hub(the flat part where the wheel sits against the rotor) shows. If I break down and purchase them, I will post pictures for all to see.
