Talking 12/19 - Installation Complete! (minor issues)

Post #1 Updated
Volk GT-S Formula Silver 19x9.5 and 19x10.5

What a long day! I arrived at my dealer ship around 8:30AM to get the installation started, but they were afraid their machines weren't able to get the tires mounted without damaging the wheels. They suggest we visit another shop to get the tires on and balanced before letting them finish the installation.

So my dad and I headed over to 3 different shops. All were capable of getting the tires mounted and balanced, but they refused to install the spacers. We came back to the dealership nearly 2 hours later and found out they were willing to install the spacers, so we went to the nearest shop to get the tires installed and balanced. Then we had issues with TPMS. Our tire shop refused to take the time to properly mount the TPMS on the adapters saying there were fitment issues. So I gave up since I was crunched for time. So finally, right when the dealership was about to close we got the wheels mounted.

Looks pretty good. I was hoping the wheels would get tucked in a little bit. Maybe I can try to squeeze in 255/40 and 285/35 tires, but I didn't think the wheels would stick out this far.

Does anyone have balancing issues with spacers? I can feel it in the steering wheel, but nothing severe.

If anyone wonders, regardless, I have no plans to drop my car. This is it. Once the weather warms up, I'll get some better shots and update this post once more. Stay tuned!
