    Did you have to use a spacer up front? My 16x8s were rubbing on the calipers...

    The only rubbing I had was on the mud flaps and I took them off. As far as I know mine aren't rubbing on the calipers. I havent heard or felt any since the flaps came off.

    I could tell mine were rubbing before I even torqued down the lug nuts. I just had a custom tight fitting 1/4" spacer made and it hasn't been an issue. I ditched the mud flaps as well.

    Did it trip your tpms sensor. Mine came on after 40 miles. I took it back and they reset It.

    I got new sensors, had the wheels and tires shipped mounted. So I had the tire shop read in the new sensors after I did the install.

    I did the same thing but for some reason it tripped. Hopefully they didn't break it.

    I bought my package from Tread Depot, the sensor kept tripping because they were leaking air, turns out they didn't tighten the valve stems to the right torque. After I torqued them all down they held air great and the sensor stopped tripping.

    I couldn't get my sensors from Tread Depot to work. Had to remove the tires and install mine from my original wheels.

    About to pull the triger on these myself, did they require buying new tire pressure sensors or did the stock ones work?
