Great choice & the ride looks perfect!

These are Enkei 18x8.5. I put the stock 235 tires on, but will go with 255 near stock height when they are gone. I liked the copper color with the Rapid Red.

I didn't want it to ride any more harshly, so stuck with 18" wheels. I didn't want to go really wide either, looking to keep it practical.

I wanted something a little different and I took a chance at these wheels.

9six9 wheels: 19x10 +35 all around on 285/35/19

Hopefully I can fit the center caps on with a 5mm spacer and banging in that huge dust cap.

I'm tempted to see if McMaster has a rubber cork of suitable size. I think this will work.

I would prefer https://www.mcmaster.com/9545K136/ but not sure if my guess on wall thickness is correct.

That would be great. I'm wondering how much clearance is expected by banging in that dust cap. I'm afraid I will need more then 5mm to clear it. Spacers are on the way so ill try that first, if not the mallet is coming out lol

Ford Performance HP Performance 19 inch wheels, finished in satin black.

I wanted an OE look wheel, was tossing up between these and MMR M350's, with the number one priority was for them to be easier to clean.

Front wheels are 19 x 9.5 with 255/40 Michelin Pilot Sport 4S.
Rear wheels are 19 x 10 with 275/40 Michelin Pilot Sport 4S.

So while the on paper specs are similar to the OE fit PP1 wheels, the visual difference is what I'm most excited about. That and replacing the horrible Pirelli's.

PP1 replica's. I didn't care for the stock black one's guess I'm showing my age grew up around chrome, polished alum., and Michelin tires.

Don't think it is an age thing, more of a preference, taste thing.

I don't get the comments I read all the time easier to clean, what's so difficult?

Anyway have a question about the tire. Is the 40 on the side wall the hight of the sidewall. Have cup2s that number is 30.
