My new wheels/tires come Spring
 
I swear I've searched every possible new wheel available. I've been looking for the past few months, damn near daily. I had it narrowed down, but I changed direction due to a scary low offset on the TSW Nogaro's. So now, once the salt is off the roads, this will be the new set up:

18x8 Rota Torque's - +48:

Wrapped in Nitto Invo 225/40s:

My winter set-up will stay the same - Hankook Icebears on OEM MS6 wheels.

What do you guys think?? I'm so anxious for some >40 temps and dry roads!

30 views and nothing 'eh? You guys can say you don't like 'em, won't offend me!

I personally love the wheels..I considered them for my BCM MS6. Nice choice.

aragorn764 02-25-2009 08:58 AM

looks good man!
Have you considered OZ ultrallegarras?

I love those wheels but recently, I've fallen for the Rota Boosts.

I have, but I think they look better on an MS3. The spokes are thinner and I like split 5 spokes. Plus, I haven't seen any MS6 with these wheels.

dude about the nogaros...i am sure you'd been fine...on my SP23 i run 19" tsw mondellos...+40...no rubbing no issues...

JohnnyT 02-25-2009 10:09 AM

^ I talked to Cherryspeed who has 19s and he said he had to roll and pull the fenders with a 225/40, not to mention he's running like max. negative camber (-3.3 in the rear IIRC). I know I'm going with 18s, but they still would stick out 0.8" further than stock, and I'm just not seeing that able to fit. OEM offset is +55.

+1 on the oz`s looking better for the ms3.
i think your making the right choice...

bova 02-25-2009 10:48 AM

bova 02-25-2009 01:01 PM
