I would buy a second set in a heart beat!

I had a set of BFGs on my mustang and absolutely hated the tread, it was super noisy. It sounded like I was driving on tank treads LOL

Do you guys know if those TSW wheels need any sort of rings or spacers or something to fit?

Also what about some tire pressure monitoring sensors? If you were doing a second set of wheels, what would be needed?

Thanks for the help everyone

You can swap your sensors over or buy a new set. They are not needed but I think you will get a warning on the dash without them.

You won't need any rings, or spacers.

If you roll w/o TPMS sensors, it will be annoying af seeing that idiot warning light on the dash constantly illuminated.

Do it right.

Either swap over the original sensors, or purchase a 2nd set.

I know I need(or really want TPMS). I'll def have them, but not sure which parts to get is what I'm getting at. So if I don't swap them over I'll need to order some new ones.

Rings/hubs whatever I didn't know if I needed them at all. Sorry I wasn't very clear :)

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!

seconded, they are an amazing A/S. They seem to ride better than the original summers (though I only drove ~ 5 miles on those). I have put about 8k on them, and I love mine. Grip in all conditions and a really nice ride.

I never had the summer tires, but the Continental DWS 06's have much more grip than the original Michelin's.
I went with 255/45/20 to replace the original 245/45/20's for a more aggressive look.

Anybody here have own both generations of the DWS?

I had gen 1 on my ST and I didn't really care for them, IMHO they were pretty average.

I wish one of the publications would do a performance shootout with UHP all season against max performance summer so folks could quantify what, if anything, you actually lose performance wise.

I had General Gmax as3's on my SHO and loved them. Last winter we had 12" get dumped on us in a matter of hours and I made it home no problem driving around stuck pickups on our unplowed roads.
