Almost every tire manufacturer list the weights of all of their tires on their web page.

Does anyone know if the TS-5s will ever be available in bronze?

Titan 7 came up with a bunch of new fitments for 2022+ cars.
I got 17x9 +47 for my 2022 GR86, here's a side-by-side with a gen1 17x9 +37 wheel: (left and dirty is +37, right and clean is +47) Using "finger measurements", I couldn't easily find where the concavity/depth differs, so the absolute difference is pretty minimal. I'll post more photos when I put both on the car. +37 will go in the front, +47 in the rear.

How is your experience with these wheels? Do they work with stock suspension? Do they need spacers? What tire sizes are you running? 245/40r17? 255/40r17? Thanks in advance! |

Pricey, but they look amazing and are among the lightest wheels on the market.
The 17x9 size is in the realm of "you might want to have suspension mods". For starters, the car will look like a monster truck with the stock fender gaps. Then the question is what you do in the front. 17x9 +47 with reasonably sized tires will likely rub HARD against the chassis at full lock. I don't even know if the wheel or the tire on it is going to clear the strut. You definitely won't be able to use camber bolts to add camber. If you add a 10mm spacer to get the effective +37 offset (or just get 17x9 +37 like I did) to minimize/avoid those issues, you'll need at least -2º of camber to tuck under the fender. A friend of mine who tried my 17x9 +37 with PP struts on his gen1 car wasn't happy with the gap between the tire and the strut. I believe gen2 struts have an even larger spring perch. If you want to keep the stock suspension, look into narrower options. 17x8 +45ish might be a better choice for now. 245/40R17. Even in that size the tire models I run (SX2, RT660) are challenging to squeeze under rear fenders.

I'm having trouble deciding between the TS-5 and R10 in 18s.
Or one of a couple of pairs of Advans, or a set of Wedsports.
