New TSW Nurb's - mounted today

I see a lot of the wheel vendors showing wheels at $8-10K with tires out the door. Here's an alternative - for a daily driver I can'y spent that kind of money - these work well. I mounted this morning. Gives you a Z51 wheel and tire size look. Actually better, in my opinion. Also lowered via the bolts.


They fit perfectly, are concentric - and use the std TPMS sensor with no problems/alarms

front
TSW NURBURGRING 19x9.0 5/120.65 ET50 GUNMETAL W/MIRROR CUT FACE
Item Number: 1990NUR505121S70
rear
TSW NURBURGRING 20x10.5 5/120.65 ET65 GUNMETAL W/MIRROR CUT FACE
Item Number: 2005NUR655121S70


Used z51 sized tires - many to choose from
Tires, P245/35ZR19 front and P285/30ZR20 rear, performance, run flat (STD)

Depending on tires this mod is $2500-3000

Very nice. New wheels will be my first upgrade after my car comes in.
I'll have all winter to decide what wheels I'll want.

Just an update, center cap from stock wheel easily detaches and with epoxy putty mounts perfectly to the TSW cap.
