Stance SC8 wheels + Continental DWS non-RF

I got a set of Graphite Stance SC8 20x9 offset 35 and 20x10.5 offset 45. I also decided to try non-RF tires and got a great deal from Tire Rack. Got Continental DWS in 255/35 and 285/30 flavor. I just installed them and are very pleased with the results. Tires feel great, definetly softer ride and less noise with similar handling characteristics as the Bridgestone RFs.

Now just need to decide if I am going to do H&Rs or not.

Getting rid of RFT on my 550iX was one of the smartest things I have done. What a pain in the posterior RFT are. Now thinking about doing the same on my 650iX Gran Coupe.

I had no idea there were DW without the S. I looked at the high UTQG rating and great reviews the DWS had and went with them.
