Finally had a chance to get the new wheels put on today. Went with Rays Gramlights 57DR (Semi-gloss) 19x9.5 ET35 with 265/35/19 Falken 460AS tires.

Great to see them on. Need lows now.
Lower it more? Actually it is already too low for me and I was planning to raise it up slightly because already scraping. It is lowered on tein flex z's with just under 2 finger gap.

Yah imo it needs some moar low! Only if you are open to it though
Thanks man! Yeah, I love my set up right now. IMO this set up really fits the model 3 and the ride is great too. I wish I could go slightly lower but I'm fine with how it is since its my daily and I carry my family in it too. I'm on coilovers and I have 15 mm spacers front and rear. Brakes are stock, I only have aftermarket covers on it.
Def lower it lol. I'm on Flex Z as well but may change it up back to MPPs since I usually run KWs on all my cars.

Anyone try the apex v601 in 285/35/19 on the system spec TE37’s?
Saw that this specific size was like 40% for $600 shipped and figured If it fits, I might as well try em! Knowing the v601’s run narrow (ish) I wonder if the 285’s will work or not….

I'm sure it would work but I think you'd probably need to raise your car for sure and the sidewall would definitely look more like a floatie.
255s stretched a tiny bit, 265s are perfect & 275s would be a tad wide.

Thanks for the feedback from both of you guys! In that case I’m sticking with the 265/35. Next choice is v601 or the fk460!
As much as I liked the v601's driving feel, they got progressively louder and louder. So far for me, the FK460 had similar if not better road feel than the v601s, better tread wear and lastly, MUCH more quiet of a tire. The v601s were great when new but seemed to progressively have more of a whirling (rotating hum) sound when traveling above 30mph.
Has anyone tried Dinan - Hyper Kinetic™ HB003 flow formed wheels? Looking for new wheels and was wondering how the fitment is. Their fitment options for 20 x 8.5 is et30 and et30. Looking for something flush and if its not flush I can use spacers but just curious on the math on what spacer size i'd need
You can run some spacers if the backed of those wheels support it. Meaning a deep cavity to accommodate for your factory studs.

Still working on getting those ZE40s.
Gram Lights will be up for sale once I get them.

They are forged and HREs from what I understand. They look better without the aero clip in pieces.
