I am going to be getting 19" volk gtc's wrapped in toyo t1's. My questions are.... will i just be able to unbolt and take off the stock 18's or is there something connecting them besides the bolts because of the tire pressure things. What exactly is the tire pressure monitor going to look like/ where is it? I dont really care about having the monitoring capability because i can always just check my own tires, but i was just wondering about what im going to have to do when i get my new wheels.

Also... will 19x8.5 front and 19x9.5 rear wheels mess with my vdc at all? these are the specifications that i was given by mike at www.revhighonline.com, so im sure that he would know what he's doing better than anyone, but i just asked him for 19's i didnt say anything about tire pressure monitoring or vdc.

my guess is that stock pressure monitoring is not going to work and that vdc will probably be uneffected / effected a minimal amount. I really wouldnt care if it is effected negatively (where it wont be as intrusive or help as much), i just dont want it to try and act when im driving and it shouldnt or wouldnt with the stock wheels.... if u understand what i mean. I would rather drive with it off all the time than drive with it messing around with the driveability of my car really bad once i get my new wheels.

also how much should i ask for my stocks? they will have prolly a little under 2k miles on them once i get my gt-c's.

Don't worry about the tire pressure thing. Your monitor may not work anymore though.

There's no wierd connections, just unbolt and you're done.

Don't think you have to realign.

As for VDC issues, what sized tires are you putting on there? That makes a huge difference, as the circumference of the actual tire is what heavily affects the VDC.

I have done quite a bit of research on your exact wheel size, and I have found that if you go with 245/35/19 tires in the front and 275/35/19 tires on the back you will have no problems with VDC. Those are the tire sizes I bought and now I am just waiting for my wheels to come in, although I'm probably going to forget them and order the GT-C's like yourself.

 

could someone help me out and tell me what each number with the wheel and tires means?

245/35/19 - im sure thats probably width, thickness, and diameter..... but maybe im wrong and what is what?

also with the wheels the 24 adn 27et? what is this? I dont understand "offset" .. maybe someone should do like a dictionary for cars for these terms and put it in the DIY. Just like all the major parts in a car, measurements, wheels and just the car jargon that goes along with this site..... i know that if thise were a subject i was more knowledgeable about i would probably compile one.

Seek and you should find Raznips. Try the thread "Alignment Prob" under the Technical forum. You'll find a lot of good info there.
