275 255/35/18 - TSW 9x18 +63 72mm CB

  1. I’m keen on getting a set of track rims and stuck between the Team Dynamics 1.3’s or TSW’s.

    Similar costs. Specs below.

    Details;

    TSW Interlargos/Nurburgring 18x9 ET63 72MMCB at 9kgs

    PRORACE 1.3 18X8.5 ET55 66.1MM CB at 11kgs

    Can anyone confirm the TSW’s should run a 255 with no issues in stock 275 Cup Suspension?

    The TSW’s seem like a better rim as lighter and wider with closer to stock offset.

  2. I have some OZ wheels at 18x9 ET55 with 255/35/18 tyres on standard Trophy R suspension with no issues at all on road or track.

    I'm about to install the RSC upgrade kit so we'll see if that has any impact on clearance.

  3. Thanks Dook. Looking at the specs, the TSW rim would sit 8mm closer to the inside strut.

    Should be fine and not touch strut on track but I will check out the OZ wheels too.

  4. I’m interested to watch and learn, as I’m considering track wheel/tyre options for my incoming Trophy-R. Thus far, I’ve though more about 18” wheels, given the the diversity and (lower) cost of track tyres. The Meg III offset is a bit of a kicker, though :worried:

  5. Ended up with a set of 18 inch Tibors with used A048’s. At least fitment and no scrubbing will be perfect.

    Let the semi slick life begin haha. 4399f200fc83f266590c91ed6f6c22fc.jpg d83f09c811b7c5b609172ccfa4574e1e.jpg
