Hi all,

I just got my 19s installed. Had a body shop paint the Lips to match the body color. Fronts needed spacers but other wise, they fit great. Let me know what you think. The tire guy filled it up with 32 front and 35 rear (pressure wise), is this ok? Should i be around the 40 PSI in the rear? I live in orlando, FL where it gets hot....

Thanks

Ultramens:

The painted rims look excellent in the matching color, and a nice contrast with the black centers!

Definitely makes the car stand out.

What are those little panels attached to the front edges of the rear bumpers? Are those extesions of the side skirts?

Regards, Maurice.

Nice looking wheels! Just replaced mine as well. Those tire prssures seem pretty low, but I'll let someone else give you better guidance. It might help if you list your tire sizes as well.

The panels on the rear bumpers are GT trim tabs that are part of the factory carrera aero kit that fits either the cab or coupe.

the tire sizes are ... 245/35-19 front and 275/30-19 rears.... Thanks for the advise....

Based on the advise I was given, I would think your pressures should be more like 35 psi front 40 psi rear. You may need to tweak from there, but that should be a good starting point.
