There are two sensor part numbers, I ordered the SS part number, not sure what the difference is. The stock 18" rims fit great on the SS. I like the silver look for the winter and black for the rest of the year.



Though I need to switch brake pads, I can't deal with the dust!

Awesome, just what I wanted to hear. Thank you very much!

Car looks good! My LT wheels have the stock all seasons on them but when/if they run out I'll get some winters to replace them.

Thanks! I have Blizzak WS80 tires on mine. They work well but I would consider looking at Nokian. It looks like they make top notch tires.

The OEM LT sensors in the 18" wheels do work with the SS. Synced them up the other night. Anyone know if the tire pressures for the 18" wheels & all-seasons should be the same as the tire pressure for the SS runflats? Can I go off of my door sticker for these all-season tires?

My 1LT says to sit about 30 - 34 PSi.

Thanks for the info. I ended up going with 35.

I put this in another thread but I'll put it here too FYI. The wheel weights on the inside of the 18" LT wheels come into contact with the plastic control arm air deflector when close to (or at) full lock. Happens on both sides. I'm assuming that the LT models do not have these.

How big of an issue is this do you think? What could we do to resolve it? Spacers?

Not a huge deal to me, just unfortunate. I wanted to talk about it on the forum so others know that they might run across this issue. The worst case scenario that I can imagine would be the weights getting knocked off thus unbalancing the tire.

The only things that I can think of to fix this would be either:
1) Relocate wheel weights inward if possible
2) Trim or remove air deflector
or
3) Add spacers

These wheels will be coming off once the temp warms up so it will only be an issue while maneuvering in parking lots for about 3 months of the year.

My tire guy was able to rebalance my "winter" Lt wheels with the weight about 3/4 of an inch off the edge. No rubbing. I like how quiet these are compared to the fat runflats.

How wide are these front wheels?
