Those look great! All things being equal, I tend to like anthracite wheels best. And I like gloss finishes. But I went with black, just to stay close to the original design aesthetic of the Boss and because of brake dust issues. Not exactly Sophie's Choice, but I hope I'm happy with the black. I'll know in a few hours. They are on the truck and out for delivery.

Sorry, no time for fancy pictures. The wheels look great and feel light. The black satin finish is very nice. I might have preferred the anthracite, but after a couple of track sessions, you're going to get a black satin finish anyway, no matter what finish you started with. I'm only unhappy, because (as usual), it will be a little while before I actually mount these. Other projects are ahead in line. I think these are going to look great on the car.

Finally got the email for my silver set. Nice how it shows as an 'overdue payment'. lol.

This is what a 295/35/18 Hoosier R7 looks like on the 11

Wheels look nice! Can't wait to see on car. Hopefully it's a littl cooler there! Those 295 might be better than 315/30's a littl taller

 

[captdistraction]

I think ultimately I'll run the 315s but the 295s definitely benefited slightly over the 10" wheel. I think in the end the 315 will offer more grip on the 11 overall despite any slight buldging

Not the same tire but I ran 305/35 nt01 on Vorshlag 18x11 diff offsets and were a perfect fit in front. When I mounted the 315's because of the bulge I had to run and 1/8 spacer to clear the coils

 

[VoodooBoss]

Those 11 inch wide wheels are going to allow fully utilization of 295 and 305 width tires.

Hopefully the 19x11's aren't too far behind. I should be torture testing them at Sonoma on August 25th with a fresh set of SC2's in 305/30/19.

305/680/18

Ah ok thanks. I think mine are 660s on 10" HREs. I'm aiming for 315's on the 11's running the Cortex offset coil-overs. The 680s running 373's just seem to bog or not pull as hard as the 660s and the shorter... 640s ? I don't want to go to 4:10s so maybe a couple mods like the CF driveshaft will help with off corner acceleration. Otherwise I have a plan B....

I just mounted NT01's 305/35-18 on my Apex 10"-43's And really wish I would have bought 295's or.....Waited for the 11's The Bulge is too much IMO. Even though Nitto says the 305's can be mounted on 10" wheels(MAX) I would have to argue, Too much bulge IMO.

UPS stopped by today! Thanks for your help with my order Ryan!

I feel ya. Some tires are way bigger than expected for a given size.
I went from 335 BFG's on my road tires to 335 888's and the Toyos were way-way bigger on the same rim. I went from a perfect fit to a clown shoe fit.
Boy was I surprised.
