i have the same tires (but on a 8" rim) I got it almost a year ago when it came out. i am very pleased of the performance, treadwear, and price. Honestly its a great bang for buck tire. I would get them again just in a 245/40 next time

Oh yea car looks great

Nice looking ride....
I really like your wheel tire set-up.
You wouldn't happen to recall the offset you're running on those wheels would you?

Peace

sorry i didnt see the reply sooner. they are +42 offset. thanks for the compliment!

Thanks for the info, but I think there might be a problem.

On the MB Motorsports web site, they have the wheels specifications in a pdf.
If you look at the list of wheel sizes, you can see that the 17x7 5-114.3 in Gunmetal has a offset of +43mm.
The 17x8 5-114.3 in Gunmetal have an offset of +42.
So, more than likely if you are running the 17x7's you have a +43mm offset.
Correct me if I'm wrong, and I'm not baggin on you at all, just trying to hash out a little bit of a difference. I know it's only a 1mm difference, but for the other people.

actually yeah, my bad, i jsut double checked the order slip. if you're interested in the wheels best of luck finding them. i checked about 15 online shops and most said the same thing, " we get them from discount tire and they are out of stock indeffinatly".
