With a 35 mm offset, you said they sit pretty even. Are they little inside or outside the wheel well?

I'm spec'ing out some wheels, but they only come in either 30 mm or 40 mm offset. (32 mm is OEM.)

Do you remember if you have a lot of clearance with the 35 offset?

I'm looking at the GReddy lugs

I got the illuminated sills as a dealer installed option. They're a pretty nice add-on.

BTW, do you know how much the OEM 18" wheel weighs?

Did you use OEM TPMS? Did you have to use the ugly stem that it came with and didn't use the Rays stem? Just got my rims and about to install, but notice that I couldn't switch out the stem from the TPMS...

Yes. Had to use oem TPMS and stem. Rays stem wasn't compatible. Still look great. Yours should look fine since your wheel is prism dark silver.

Yeah, the stem wasn't compatible, but like you said, the OEM stem w/ TPMS blends in well with mine. I'll live with it.

BTW, what face type is yours? 1 or 2?

Detailing the car

After 1.5 year with the TLX. Decided to do a quick detailing of the car. Wash/dry, claying, polishing and sealing all by hand. Took me about 4 hours. I was very pleased with the final result. Surface shiny and sparkling with a smooth finish to the touch.

Nice job, the car looks great. Once warranty is up on my TLX, I'm planning a mild drop and a decent set of wheels.
