Default My new wheel setup w/ pics

I got these wheels last week. Until this morning I had time to snap some pics to show you guys. Wheels are Work VS-xx.

F: 235/35/19 +45
R: 275/30/19 +45

There are few things I have to deal with this new setup. Slight rubbing from the front when making turns and "low tires" warning light on continiously. I guess I should start making "pipe bomb" to solve the TMPS problem. The light is a little annoying to me. Well, here are the pics. Thank you for looking.

While pipe bombing will make the light go off..you don't have the nice feature of knowing that a tire is low...Try using the Iforged adaptors for the TPMS or just band the existing sensor to the wheel barrel. Of course you would have to dismount/mount/balance the tires again to do it this way..
BTW the Work's look great

Those are some ugly wheels and you should give it to me, so that I can properly dispose of it.... J/K. Those are some nice looking rims.
