that insurance usually has a disclaimer on modified cars and that incl wheel tire sizes, camber, braces, or anything that alters the OE spc and dimensions

Exactly who do you get your insurance from that has policies that draconian?

I scan all the fine print. Seems like a standard requirement to me.

Yours doesn't have any questions about mods when signing up or fine print.

Anyway, Ford Schrader 33500 EZ Sensor TPMS Sensor: my installer cleared error codes from old ones. Mine have not relearned after 15 min and my right one shows a yellow symbol.

Any ideas ?

What year is your car?
Where did you source the toms?

Maybe I can? The wheels are 20x9.5 et35 and 20x10.5 et42. Haven’t purchased yet but I like the look of the American Racing AR924 wheels.

Maybe the 20" rim doesn't leave as much wiggle room for tire widths, but I'm running 275/40r18 squared Indy Firehawks on APEX EC-7 18"x9" rims and they fit fine. I would think you could put 275s on your 9.5" rims and have a square tire size even though not square wheel size (???)

275/35 may not leave enough sidewall to adapt and that would make sense to me and why you can't do that on 20" rims... although TireRack.com lists the tire as fitting 9"-11" rims for the 20" tire too....

I put 275 on 9.5 all day long. The issue is the front is only 9 wide, not 9.5. But more so the rear 10.5.

TireRack.com lists the Firehawk 275/35r20 tire as fitting 9"-11" rims which would include both his rim widths .... *shrug*

275 on an 11” wheel is going to stretch quite a bit

What about Velgen VF10 in 20x10 and 20x11 from Steeda?

2020 got on amazon

There's hundreds of good choices. Budget, color, shape. Unless you have to look phat, or go to the track, 10 wide more than suffices. For street 9.5 is plenty good frankly.

Ick, I only trust tpms.com, the dealer or tirerack/discount tire as reliable sources.

I think I'm going with some black 19x9.5 RTR tech 5's, square, with 285-35 Toyo Proxes Sports. For a street car that doesn't see any type of racing these should fit and work nicely I think/hope.

I’m on the hunt again. Is there an offset on a 10” wide wheel that will allow rotations?

I ordered a programmer. TPMS.com states need to be programmed. They could be counterfeits...

Sent a pic to Schrader to authenticate codes printed on them and QR authenticator stamp.

When it comes to wheels you get what you pay for.

Be sure it has TUV or JWL for that wheel, that can be authenticated online. Lots producers fraudulently claim TUV or JWL when it's just a contract facility certified not the wheel.

You can easily go for 9.5 wheel and 265 or 275. Remember the bigger the wheel and tire the heavier the unsprung mass that has a huge performance penalty.

Get spacers to achieve the poke that gives the great look.
