Looks great except the extra 5 holes in each wheel.

I don't see why not...just gotta contact these guys and let them know where you're at.

UPDATE: Got in contact with them and they said they DO NOT ship to the US

But they did let me know that one of their suppliers does

Although I don't see the Salsa wheels on there...the FC 01 Hyper Silvers look very similar to them...

That's who I bought mine through. I can vouch for these guys, pretty good.

The Salsa's are by no means a "flashy" wheel, but they're sure nice for a winter wheel.

1st, would an admin PLEASE STICKY THIS!! People have tried to come up with lists numerous times, work is going into this one to track down where they're available, etc.


OP, add Ikon Vision to the list; I have the 18s as my winters and the clearance is about the width of your pinky. Mine came in through my dealer so I'm unsure where the best place is to order them, but they without a doubt pass the Brembos .

Excellent. I'll add it when I get home.

For the record, anyone who knows some guaranteed fitments, let me know and I'll post it on the first page. Just have to give me a couple days at times...

If one where to get a second set of winter rims/tires they would obviously need a set of Tire Pressure Sensors. How much do these cost? And do you have to re-calibrate them every time you switch rims?

They're not overly expensive, but yes you'll have to do a re-learn every time you swap wheels. I went the path of no sensors and just deal with the ding when I get in, the light on the console and push the Info button once to clear the error.

Those are nice, but I can't see replacing the wheels for around the same weight difference as factory. Guess if it depends if your in to looks or performance, If I go after market its probably going to be the light weight OZ wheels.

Like I said, if any one has ANY wheels that they've test fitted and they clear without a spacer, let me know and I'll update...

Although I DO have a lot of wasted time in the day, I'd rather not scour every thread to find every wheel that fits, but I will make a pretty list :P
