Looks awesome!

I am thinking of ordering the same for DE's, what tire size did you end up going with and are the rear wheels 12" wide?

Thanks!

The size is 245/305 on the Nittos. The wheels are 18s 8.5 front and 12 rear.

Compared to my stock wheels on hankook RS3 the rears are about 2 lbs lighter...

That is what I was thinking, the diameter ratio of the stock 235/35/19 and 305/30/19 is 96.958% front to back the 245/40/18 and 305/35/18 is 96.707% front to back, damn close.

How did this setup feel on track? Isn't the 305 a bit narrow for a 12" rim?

The NT01s seem to run large.

Yes they are on the large side...

Never had issues... One of the best track tires IMO

The OZ's are a great looking track wheel and nothing but good things to say about NT01 either.

Yes! Nitto NT01 best drive to the track and track tire ever! OZ Challenge wheels best bang for the buck wheel going.

I run the 245/40/18 and 305/35/18 combo...same overall diameter as stock 235/35/19 and 305/30/19 so ABS and PSM have no issues.

I am running Nitto NT01s 235/305 combo on BBS 8" and 11" (ET51). Perfect fit. Fantastic tire. Including on rain. Of cause it is noisy on highway but I don't care.

It seems that the last offer that I had to sell them tires and wheels fell through...

They are located in NYC and I am willing to sell for a very competitive price since I sold the car.

As new you would need about $2900-3000 for this setup. I am selling for way less than half of that...

Yes. Completely stock. Note thought that this car has the Sport PASM which is i think another 10mm lower than the regular PASM
