After PPF and ceramic coat done. Time to drive Cinderella. Debadged the rear.
I actually DO have aero! On order anyway.
They do look amazing. I've been looking for published info on the stock wheel weight and still haven't found it. Can you tell me what that number is please? I'm also curious how much I will be saving when they finally get here in the fall.Thanks! The wheels are 8lbs lighter and the tires are 2lbs lighter.. so maybe 40lbs total saved on all 4. If I take it out later today I'll try to get some more side shots.

Sure. The stock wheel is a 19x9.5 and sits at a 60 offset. I downsized to a 18x9.5 at a 38 offset. Most people suggest a 45 offset.. 38 CAN rub if you lower the car too much. But at stock height, or even a minor drop (spoon springs), rubbing won't be a concern. If you stick to a 45 offset, you can even bump up to a 275 width tire.They do look amazing.

Thank you! I think I might go with Spoon springs - I'm looking at the 18x10.5" Apex VS-5RS or whatever it is. Do you know the actual weight in lbs. of the oem wheel though?Sure.

Can you post some pictures of this?!My console box is in for the rear AC swap. I am waiting on one bracket and it should be an easy swap. Looks like it mounts the same way.
Will do. Bracket just arrived so I have everything. Maybe a tomorrow thing. The new bin is definitely has a smaller storage bin. The test will be the bracket that creates a space under the bin for the ductwork to go through. I'm hoping this will bolt up.Can you post some pictures of this?!

Fingers crossed I feel like this is game changerWill do. Bracket just arrived so I have everything. Maybe a tomorrow thing. Nex.bix definitely has a smaller storage bin. The test will be the bracket that creates a space under the bin for the ductwork to go through. I'm hoping this will bolt up.
I just used my finger / nail. Super easy. Not sure how you could mess it up. It's just a sticker...Question for some that have already done this. Asked the dealer to peel the vinyl from the rear black emblem to expose the paint behind it, sent them screenshots & pics from the forum and Facebook group, and somehow they messed it up and had to order a new one. So I will be rocking the silver one for a few days. Everything I saw said to just peel it with your finger and maybe apply little heat if needed. Trying to understand how they could possibly screw that up?
Edit: I've been answered elsewhere. I'll see if I can salvage what the dealer broke otherwise I'm just buying 2 & doing it myself I suppose.
