Me, Spd_Rcr, and I think one other guy picked up a set from the Dezod group buy. Too bad they aren't as rare as they once were in that sizing/bolt pattern. But legit nonetheless.

So 30 sets out there? Does that mean we can post in the "rare" wheel thread even though four SL guys will be posting up the same wheels? Lol

215's if you want the same fitment as mine. i'm still planning on pushing my wheels out more with spacers (at least the front, already have 15mm rears), that's why the stretch is coming in handy. if you're not going to be spacing the wheels out more, you can probably roll with 225's.
215's are just going to cause you less problems down the road if you want to space out your wheels.

^ True. I guess it all comes down to the best deal. But those Nankangs are CHEAP! I still can't find a shop willing to put 215's on a 9.5" wheel though...

215 on a 9.5 is baby stuff, it took me around 12-15 shops to get a 215 on a 10 hahahha.

Dave, you sold the AME's? What is the new setup or is it disclosed to the public? 225/35's will look nice on those tens. Can't wait to see it.


I put 225's on my tens as well.
