So, I had decided to get Konig Kilograms in 18x9.5, 35mm offset, with 275/40 Sport Comp2's. Discount Tire Direct called and said Konig never got back to them on the PO and they have no idea on lead time. They suggested in-stock TSW Interlagos in 18x9, 32mm, 18.3lbs each..yikes. I noticed they do have Nurburgrings in 9.5" with 40mm offset in stock. Perfect! Except I have read that they only have a load rating of 1350lbs (a post dated 2010). I cannot find the ratings of the Interlagos, but I was thinking 9.5" anyways and DTD only has 9" in stock. The Nurburgrings look stronger but I was hoping to be more unique and stay away.
So, before I call them back, what do you guys think is an appropriate load rating? Most miles are put on cruising, but I autocross and plan on more track days (all with street legal tires). I can't afford real racing with the Boss My reason for going to 18s is tire availability, cost, and weight reduction. I chose square 9.5" width since 255 is the narrowest I would use and 10" seems silly for mostly street use.
