http://www.ebay.com/itm/321710291275?_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

Thanks for the heads-up, I just bought them. I've been looking at getting a set of these for awhile. Can somebody point me to an idiots guide to tire sizing, wheel offsets, etc? I've search and found lots of info for specific wheels/tires, but not a general overview of the topic in general. Just a bunch of "will this tire fit this rim" etc.

Congrats man! Very happy to hear someone from Rennlist grabbed them

19x9 and 19x12 is the same as GT3 RS sizing:

Tire size, front 245/35ZR19
Tire size, rear 325/30ZR19
Wheel size, front 19 x 9
Wheel size, rear 19 x 12

So, if you want, you may be able to run those larger tires, depending on the offset of the wheels. The offset is stamped on the back spokes on those particular wheels.

Best bet would be to get the offsets, and then contact Champion and see what tire size they recommend. On your AWD car, you have to keep the front/rear ratio at a certain percentage, so you dont upset the computer.

Looking forward to pics once you get them.

Nice congrats. I just refinished a set of Champion PES GP7 in Porsche silver. I like the steering feel and quicker turn in.

This really was the deal of the year, all four wheels arrived today in great shape. I'd rate them an 8.5-9 out of 10. Barely a mark on them. Can't wait to get them on the car!

Very nice and a great deal! I considered them but was too busy to follow up before you jumped on them.
