Weight ~20lbs each
Running Michelin Super Sports 245/35/19 Front tires, 275/30/19 rear tires
Stock suspension setup. No rubbing (but just got them put on today)
Had them since Xmas. Was waiting for Spring to buy tires. Picked them up from Sonic Tuning during the winter sale. (Shout out to Ray)
Got the quaife from Tal @ ACG (Shout out to Tal). Looking for a good place to have it installed in the MD/DC/VA area. Any suggestions??

Where are you in Maryland? I'm in Pasadena - give me a wave if you see me around and you're local.
Also - let me know how like that Quaife. I'm torn between that or Wavtrac.

More pics from today. Been driving her pretty hard. No rubbing at all. Tires are still too new for any real review but so far I'm loving them. Still breaks loose when floored in sport handling mode. Can't wait to get the LSD in.
Thank you for all the kind words above!!

My name is Jeff, I'm in the Rockville, MD area. I was deciding b/w the Wavetrac and Quaife as well. Read alot of the threads. I went w/ the Quaife b/c it's been around and no modifications need to be done to the housing for install. I know the modifications to install the Wavetrac are minor but I didn't want to deal with it. The Quaife prices have also gone up since Feb so that was an unpleasant surprise. I think both will be amazing as I have not read anything bad about either. Either LSD would be better than no LSD (I think lol, I'll let you know after I have it installed)

Both are really good LSD's. I personally have the Wavetrac and love it. No modification was needed to install mine. AMGMD is correct though, some do require a small shaving of the houseing/case (doesn't affect the lsd at all).

Nice ride! Just need a drop now
And FYI even with LSD you rear end will still get loose under heavy acceleration. You'll just have wheels spinning synchronously hence more uniform tire wear

Curious about updates on potential rubbing as well. I'm looking at 275/30/19 Nittos for my rear 19X9.5 ET 45 wheels. But I'm lowered on h&r springs and curious if this setup would rub. I like to have beefier tires/taller sidewalls than my current set, but not sure what I can fit. I think 255/40/19 would be too tall, but anyone happen to have any experience with this? TIA!

Are your MPSS run-flats?
I am seriously considering the exact same setup you are running. I LOVE those wheels!
EDIT: I bit the bullet and ordered these wheels with the same specs as yours but in Satin Graphite instead of Silver. Also order 4 MPSS in the same sizes. You were my inspiration. I wasn't kidding when I said I LOVE THESE WHEELS!!!
