Well done! Just enough shiny/silver finishes to pull off the rim guards. 👏🏼

Questions
What depth did you go with? Deep and front and rear?

Are you running a CETE or lowering links?

What size tires are you running?

Thanks!

Anybody have experience running Michelin PS4 SUV version tire? I have always ran PSS or PS4's on all my cars and loved them. But i little skeptical about the new PS4 SUV model.

They are apparently for a heavier/higher center of gravity cars... i am lowered on cete module..

Any thoughts?

Bunch of our customers run them and have only good things to say. Seems like a no-brainer... 4S characteristics, better suited for an SUV. I ran the Latitude 3 once on my SQ. Seems like they were designed similarly.

I am running the 295/35/21 PS4 SUV tire on my BC Forged wheels I picked up from MOPS back in April. Great tires so far, night and day compared to the stock Pirelli tires.

How so? Ride quality, noise level, traction?

What do you guys use for tire cleaning and shine? I noticed the tires look very shiny on delivery date and the shininess last a long time. I’ve used many tire cleaning shining products in the past. And they could only keep the tires shiny for 2-3 days. I wonder what dealer is using.

I use Optimum Optibond Tire Gel. It’s water based so it doesn’t leave that oily tire splash most tire dressing leave behind when driving. Lasts about 2-3 wks for me.

[FFM]

I use Tarminator to clean the dirt from the tires and that’s it. All natural look. No shine.

For dressing I'm a fan of CarPro Pearl. Dilute about a little w/ 25% water; apply with a brush.

Nice, what are the tire specs?

They are the stock Pirelli P-Zeros: 255/40 x 21. Correction, they are 255/40 x 21 not 255/45 x21.

Thanks. Now the fun comes with the stuff you can't see but will know it has when you're staring at taillights.

Reading this thread, and couldn’t find it again to reference. Someone noted running replica RS6 wheels.

*Anyone running “new” ~2020 RS6 or RS7 oem or replica wheels??

Itching real bad to see em.

[JGutz]

New wheels, thanks Mops! BCForged HCS02 21x10 et 33 max concavity. Gloss gunmetal lip and matte gun metal center with black hardware. I went with 33 offset on all four corners for matching front and back look and plan to run 3mm spacers in the rear! I’m pumped! Will be getting these bad boys ceramic coated and slapping on dws06 rubber in a 295/35/21!

Can't wait to see those on. The gloss/matte mix looks awesome.

Same, I’m hoping it works well with the Daytona grey paint, it’s so hard to get wheel color right with Daytona grey. The stock wheels have a gunmetal finish on the outside of the spokes so I’m hoping the color looks similar because I love how that looks.

Not sure if anyone has noticed, but the DWS 06 now comes in a "Plus" model. And they offer in 275/40/20, 295/40/20, 265/40/21, 295/35/21 and 265/35/22.

That’s crazy I was just going to post this, I found this out yesterday after ordering my 295/35/21’s for the new wheels, I had to triple check and I almost called discount tire back to tell them they ordered the wrong tires, but turns out they are the new model for 2021! I may be the first one to install these so I’ll let you guys know how they handle!

Haaa nice!! I’ll be close behind ya. Gonna order some 295/40s for my Forgelines.

Hmm, I just ordered a set of DWS 06's last week. They're still sitting in my garage, I wonder what I have.

[JGutz]

Finally have all 4 wheels. UPS decided to take two days to deliver all four. Received only one wheel yesterday and three today, which now delays getting them ceramic coated and fresh rubber. Likely will be on the car by Tuesday now. Check em out! IMG_4923.jpg

You're probably tired of my input 😂

I love mah meat, and I think 265/40 is just right. And they're taller than the 295/35.



If you want heavy tire bulge, 295/35 will get it. That said, the width range for 295 is 10-11.5", so you're likely killing any tire warranty if you go 295 on 9.5".

I’m trying to figure out if 21x9.5 ET30 will mate well with 295/35. Am I safe to do it?

[JGutz]

I would say no, best to stay with at least a 10 inch wide wheel

Even on a 10” the 295 has a bit of bulge so it would likely be to much for the 9.5. I think ideal tire size would be 265/40 but maybe it could be pushed to a 285/35
