@CSG Mike - If you like you can add this sizing to the wheel directory now that you've taken over for Darren
I googled for almost an hour and searched on this forum but couldn't find anything about hubcentric rings interfering with the center cap for wedssport wheels

My only economical choice is discount tires, they're pretty good but were not talking custom shop good here. Serviceable but more prioritized on time and quick service.

looks very nice, i am about to place an order for 18x8.5 sa-10rs 45 offset, 5x100 just like yours. however i plan on running michelin pilot super sports 245x35x18

p.s - what exhaust are you running?

Discount tire should handle things ok, no worries there. The 245 MPSS will fit perfectly. Great tire, good size. TRD USA catback. Sounds really good if I do say so myself.

The hub rings won't interfere with the standard domed center caps or the optional flat caps. You're good to go!

Flat caps are on order so shush! There's one on the front in the second image. Ghetto IK.



are you running TPMS at all on these?
if so, aftermarket or oem tpms sensors?
also, if you are, is there a bit of a gap and the tpms sensors don't sit flush/flat against the wheel?

OEM TPMS sensors (I had the tire shop swap them). The fit looks solid and hasn't given me any problems over the past 9 months.

i have the same exact wheel as you and oem tpms sensors and it sort of looks like this when i put the tpms sensor on the wheel. the fit around the seal is fine, the bottom of the sensor doesn't sit flush/flat though against the wheel

not the actual picture but this is what it looks like.



do you recall if yours was like this too? i imagine it shold be since we have the same exact wheel and oem tpms sensor?

I have the hub centric rings on my 9.5" weds SA10R wheels.

The flat centre caps fit fine with them.

Hi OP,

I was thinking of this set of wheels too. But 17x7.5 version.

I have to also run bolt on spacers and was wondering if this wheel has the stud grooves so that my bolt on spacers will be able to fit.

Do you have any pictures of the rear side of the wheel?

Sorry for necroing... I'm thinking of getting this exact same setup except in MPSS. Did you have any acceleration loss going to the 235 tire??? Or actually... did you feel any acceleration loss AT ALL switching to this 18 inch setup?
