AK, did you just swap the TPMS from your stock rims over to the winter rims or did you get them from Tirerack. I thought about getting a set with the TPMS from TR, but I'm not sure if they work properly or not. They come with some kind of "resetting" tool, but I'm clueless how well it works with our cars.
I did not swap TPMS from 19" rims. I bought my winter rims WITH TPMS from Tirerack. You do have to take the car to the dealer after each swap to reset the TPMS. It takes less than 2 minutes to do it but they charge you half hour labor because that's the lowest they can charge. Some dealers will do it for you FREE of charge but my dealers around here are not too friendly.

As you know, I have the exact same winter tire setup as you. Personally, I find the amount of tuck with the rear wheels to be ugly as hell. Did you buy wheel spacers yet or are you going to wait to buy them until you put your Rays wheels back on? I just lowered my Z, and with the winter wheels it looks like crap. I don't want to buy wheel spacers until I've got the Rays back on to ensure a good flush look, but I wanted to know if you've tried to improve the cosmetics of your winter setup.

Anyone else, please feel free to chime in. What I really want to know is what you think is the BEST, MOST FLUSH look on a lowered Z with Rays wheels. I know there is a thread talking about wheel spacers, but it doesn't directly address my question.

Much obliged,

Eric
No spacers ERIC. These rims more like a purpose rims than "looker". I never put spacers before so I don't know what's involved. I am gonna swap it end of March so it's only 3 months to go. Since I put on only from November to end March, i just live with the gap.
