Fitted new rims and rubber. Michelin PSS 275/35 on OZ Ultraleggera 19x10

Just curious..why did you go with 275/35 vs 30?

And those seats...

Also fitted JHM's short shifter with their heavy shift knob.



Fun times installing & setting it properly :>



Also had the luck to catch a weekend track day last month and these came in pretty useful. (Here overseas proper track days aren't that common :( )

So much win

Looking good! Can we see more pics of the wheels and exterior?

I'm out of the country at the moment and I left just after I put the new wheels and 3mm spacers on...
I'll make a couple new pictures when I go on a road trip at the Croatian coast next month - with the 3mm spacers added from H&R the ultraleggeras stand out properly on the car.

I got a couple pics with the new wheels (without the 3mm spacers all around).








And a lot of older pics when I bought the car - at that point nothing was done yet, winter wheels, etc.

They are the replicas, you can tell by the sharper corners, I have them also... saddly.
I got them with the car and have them for winter use, but I hate them like hell. I'm honestly thinking of throwing them away.

And those seats...

Apart from the V8 I love these seats the most - the way they gently squeez you when you put the car in S

Regarding the tyre dimension 275/35, to be honest I don't like the idea of a half empty wheel well on a 4.000lb limo. Too much rim and too little tyre for my taste.
Also one reason for the 35 sidewall are our roads here in Slovenia as you can see on this video I took after I did piggies.
The 35 PSS (the best tyre I ever had on my cars) wraps very nicely "around" the OZ - I'm actually not even one bit worried about damaging the rim with this tyre on.

I'll see later on if I go for a 30 sidewall when I change from DRC to Kw Clubsport coils.

So much win

Thank you.

Thought so...

[Blake-O]

I didn't say they were OEM. I simply responded to the question of whether they are painted.

They are winter wheels but I like them so they have been staying on the car. But thanks for sharing your thoughts boys.

[CoreyRS]

Keep the pics coming, these look awesome!

[ven0m]

Thought so...

I'm searching for OEM's. My car came with the 19x9.5 rims originaly, but they were stolen from the first owner.
Saddly not a lot are available used here in Europe and the stealer wants 3.6k€ for them. That's 4k$ or in other words thefuckNO.

But I'm happy with the OZ's as a summer setup for now. Got them for a really nice price directly from the factory in Italy, had to wait 2 months for them because they had to make them first, they usually don't make them 5x112 and 19x10 wide and they fit my blue/silver contrast perfectly in matt race silver color.

So you get me euro seats, and I get you stock wheels???????

[Mops@Nemesis]

Looking so damn good!

[Badtoyz]

[Blackstallion]

^^Love it--are you leaving the hood as it? Following your build on the revolution..good shit man!

[Badtoyz]

Nah It needs to be painted there's too many Imperfections and high spots u can see in the sun for my liking. I'll leave the side vents carbon but paint the rest phantom black to match.

One of the lucky few to have that Hood, I saw it too late when I viewed the classifieds. I like that you have the side grill in, car is looking good!

Love the carbon/paint combo idea!

I actually have a friend in Slovenia that has a storage facility in Florida and is in import/export business.
When I buy stuff from JHM I always ship it to his store and he ships it over to Europe with parts for his Mustang and other stuffs.

I know for a couple sets of the Recaros that are being sold on German ebay, I can ask Goos how much he would charge for shiping if you're interested?

[MarcusDubya77]

Looks nice. Able to somehow wire it up?

Thanks. Ya I'm not the first one to have that idea there's lots of guys that have done it that way. Koolade9 has his in white with the accents. Looks bad ass.

venom and badblue, here is a pic of the inside of my wheels, had them rotated today and figured you two would want photo evidence:




Satisfied now? But yeah venom, i'd go ahead and throw yours away.

[badbluers4]

So they are OEM wheels that you painted just the inside of the spokes on? Or did you buy them on the car already, cuz you said earlier that "you didn't say they were OEM"

I didn't say they were not OEM either. This is more directed to Venom and his over the top comments and figured I would let you two run with it before posting a pic. Yeah, I get it, you don't like my wheels. They are OEM wheels that were painted. I'd say its pretty obvious from the two photos what parts of the wheels were painted.

Buddy, you have some issues.

If my implication that your rims were the same as my winter replicas was wrong then pardon me I was wrong.
All other commentary was directed solely at my own wheels.

[Badtoyz]

just some shots from the first wash in 9 mos. shes getting there, some new shoes are in order. overall im incredibly impressed with all my jhm parts and service. the hood needs some tweaking and I still have a bit of air in the drc system that needs to gtfo but im happy with the stance. the power is phenominal its night and day difference from being na.

[cotmfk]

I can imagine.... forced induction is so much fun!!

JHM needs to release that kit to the masses....

Looks so clean have you thought about painting your exhaust tips black or center caps as well? Just to go with the murdered out look. Wheels look really good in gloss black 🏼

it is released to the masses u can call and order stage 1 right now, its stage 2 that's not quite out yet. theres a bunch of us now with jhm stage 1 rs4s.

I like the exhaust tips chrome, a little chrome at the bak with the tips and a little chrome at the front with the rings. I never really thought to do the center caps. im going to be ordering some lightweight 19s probabaly in satin bronze so ill just leave them. the wheels I painted not gloss black but something called santini black. my car is phantom black so it has the metallic flek and this paint was a real close match.

Yeah I'm torn about my exhaust tips...a little contrast is nice too! Great job matching the Phantom Black on the center caps 🏼

Satin bronze will look good! look forward to seeing those.
I'm really digging these SPFs right now:



not sure which to get.. just got 275/30/19 PSSs today. Best tires EVER!!!

[Badtoyz]

I'm looking at bc forged rs31 or fogeline ga1r. The fogelines are my fav but theyre over 8k with the exchange rate right now plus shipping and duties. I still love your tailights too.

Thanks.. I will say they are a little finicky. I have to wiggle them/re-fasten from time to time. I hear the ECS ones are pretty rock solid in that sense.
and back to some pics....

[Badtoyz]

as for going to the 275's im personally sticking with 255's. im trying to save every pound everywhere I can. even the rims im staying with 19x9 im just changing the offset so I don't have to run spacers. I will be running the Michelin pss too theyre nice and light.

[maxbhp]

Sent you PM regarding Forgelines. Btw, 275/30 not much heavier than 255/35, but depends on the brand.
