10mm in rear w that high an offset, you want more width in back. what brand tires do you have? it says on each tire the recommended max pressure, go 5 under that cold. my falkens say 50psi max I run 44/45 cold, alot of tires are 45 or 40 pounds, depends on brand

mbcoolguy, what did you end up getting that you need spacers up front? can you give me the offset and rim size both front and back or post a link?

That's the max pressure and not the running pressure.

33/38 for the OE 18" tire sizes. Since you have the rear tire size on the front wheels also, it's up to you.

Hi guys and thanks for the relies. I ended up with the ts7. Kleemann makes only two offset so when tell them what car you have they send you the specific spacers for your car. I wish it would've came with the back too. I'm with you Jimmy on 10mm. I have them mounted on continental dsw. Man these tires are really tall! Tire pressure is at 32fr 37rr

Why not take it to a shop and have them put in air for free? Shop in my town does it all the time.

When you purchase new rims can you swap out the TPMS's to the new rims ?

Yes you can but the rims has to be able to accept the sensor. So be sure to ask if the new wheel will be able to take the sensor.
