as for the +29...As i stated before i had +29 ordered in front..and when mackin recieved my order they corrected it..stating that the +29 won't fit...
now don't get my wrong...my car looks hot as F**king hell...(like the others on the site with the same or similar set-up)..already had one person take a pic of it at starbucks as i was sipping on my drink watching it from the outside....the 2" dish front and almost 3" dish in the back..is amazing when the car is rolling....I would like it better with the 255 in front....i'll live with the 245 for now ...

I really think the +29 will clear, but I don't want to tell someone to do it and then have the blame squarely on my shoulders when they don't... if you get them though and they DON'T fit, I'm sure a small 5mm spacer will solve any problems... I personally like the way my front looks with the +29 rear because the rear is more aggressive than the front (the other way around if you go +19 in the front) - however, if you don't mind rolling the fenders, as mentioned, the +19/+17 combo is definitely the way to go...

I finally orded my SF-Winnings today. Said they will be here in about 3 weeks.
19 x 9.5 +29
19 x 10.5 +29
Not sure on the tires yet. I want to get them locally so they have a warranty.
Probably get the same as BZABODYN, I don't want Toyo's. Maybe some Hancooks.
Anybody know anything about the hancooks.?
Maybe I should start a new thread!

Hankooks, honestly, don't deserve to be on this car - and as a matter of fact, they don't make a tire that will properly fit anyways (275/30 is the widest they go - but those will be super-stretched on a 10.5" wheel) - Since a 255/35 in the front is what I'd suggest, it pretty much narrows your tire choices to:
BFG KDW2
Goodyear F1 GS-D3 (only available in 275 for the rears like the Toyos)
Pirelli P-Zero Asimetico
Continental Conti-sport Contact 2
Michelin Pilot Sport & PS2 (best tire available, imo)

How about +29 9.5 front with a spacer
Okay, so what do you guys think about a +29 9.5 front wheel with a small (5mm) spacer vs the +19 9.5 front wheel. That way you could still have a 9.5 front width, clear the Brembos, and not have to roll the fender. Does this sound like a good alternative? Otherwise, you're stuck with an 8.5 front which doesn't quite look right with a 10.5 rear, or you get a +19 9.5 that requires fender rolling, or a +29 9.5 that doesn't clear the Brembos. So what do you guys think about the spacer idea?

Many people are running the +19 front with a 255/35 tire - clearance really isn't an issue in the front... there's less than 1/2" difference in the offset and that difference is all caliper clearance (since the lip sizes are the same) - if you think you need the extra 1/2", get the +19 (what I'd suggest if you have Brembos, just to be safe), if you're daring, you can try the +29, but if you end up needing a small spacer, I'm going to say "I told you so..."

I Have Been Reading This Thread For Sometime Now. Just Placed My Order. I Will Be Running 19x9.5 & 19x10.5 + 29 All Around. Nice Setup.The Only Question That I Have, Are You Guys Still Using Your Psi Sensor. I Heard That The Sensor Does Not Fit In The Tire When Running The Sf--winning Wheels.
Thats To All You Guys For The Helpfull Info. Good Job And Keep Up The Good Work!!!!!

The sensors are not needed....the Tire pressure light on the dash does not come on until about after 30 minutes of driving..after that it comes on (no beeping or anything) and then stays on until u turn off the car.....
