The ford racing rim looks nothing like the tsw rim btw.

Sorry, I believe the 19x10 wheel is BBS. Depending on final price, I may get Ford Racing wheels in 19x9, 19x10. www.tirerack.com priced at $449.00 each. I "assume" Ford Racing wheels have "correct" offset, but maybe not?

The ford racing rims will fit. They are not bbs, or anything else. They are ford racing. The tsw rim is not bbs or anything else. It's the tsw nurburgring.

I like both rims. I chose the nurburgring for my car. I wonder if the ford racing rim is rotary forged or truly forged.

I'd like to get Ford Racing wheels, but paying $600.00 more for them, isn't affordabe for me. Ford Racing calls it "spin forged", whatever that means? They list the weight at 24 pounds each.

I think that is the same as rotary forged. If so, I would get the tsws in a matte charcoal finish and save some money. I think that color would look great on your green boss.

Ford Only "approves", one "track Tire"for my 2013 Boss 302, Pirelli P-Zero "Corsa", in 255/40/19 front, 285/35/19 rear. These are the most expensive tires made. I'd like to use Toyo Proxes R888, or Nitto NT05, but no one will "Warranty" they'll fit??? Both Ford and Tirerack say, if you go wider, and theres a clearence problem, they won't exchange tires for a different size, you'll have to pay for them, and keep them???

You'll be fine. People are running 10" wide wheels on the front.

Contrary to dealer advice, Tirerack, etc. I think I'll go with TSW wheels/Nurburgring in 19-8.5 and 19-9.5 and Nitto NT05 tires, in 245-40-19 and 275-35-19. About 1/4 inch narrower than stock tires, but better traction and wear than P-Zero tires.

No intent to further confuse, but this may be the wheel COM is referring to?

It's not. That is only available in 18. I posted that a while back in this thread. I love that rim though.

If this is a track setup, you want to go square so you can rotate.

I have read you would need a stiffer front sway if you squared up, otherwise you would get understeer.
