If you're running the OEM coupe stagger, there is a difference in front to rear tire DIA.
The coupe VDS slip algorithm is programmed for this (front to rear error).
The sedan is programmed for no stagger (ne error)

Parts is a department of the Dealer...the Parts Department
LOL...I hope that didn't sound like a smartass response, I just didn't know what you meant.
I'm pretty sure some people have bought their Coupe wheels from a dealership...but why would you pay so much? Just post a "Want to Buy" ad here on the boards & I'm sure somebody will reply. Y'know those Coupe guys all want aftermarket wheels. hehehe...noone is satisfied w/ "stock"
Good luck, Tony! Post some pix once you get yours! ^-^

**And in case you're wondering - YES, it rubs...in the rear. The fronts, running the stock Coupe size is totally fine. The rear though, at 245/40/19...combined w/ the lower offset...makes the tires sit almost flush w/ the fender. And, as low as my car is, it will touch w/ so much as a pebble in the road. So, I had to roll the fender. So, for those who are contemplating putting these wheels on your Sedan...either leave it stock height and never carry any passengers in there, or roll your fenders, or get 235/40 tires (the stretched tire should clear the fender).

hey man, i get the same thing but it only happens when i corner to the right. when i'm cornering to the left it does not happen. at first i thought it was rubbing on something but its just that the slip light turns on. i only need to be going about 40 or so for it to happen and usually when im getting onto the highway, but only when cornering to the right. does it go on when cornering to both side?
