Seriously considering trading out my 20" OZ Ultra HLTs for a set of 18 x 9 +45 Titan 7 T-S5s. Love how they look in Satin Titanium, they would give me a little over 4 lbs in weight savings per corner, and I'd probably stick 265/35-18's on them. Tires are undetermined, but the Pilot Super Sport is the likely choice. I thought the Sport PS2 was newer but guess not.

Hmmm.
playing devil's advocate here...Titan 7's were a great set of wheels! for the price, can't really beat it...and should be a little lighter than the OZs. They also look great on the ABM as well :) below is my ABM with the Titans, just for reference.

Swift springs

For those wondering, I do have slight rubbing only when hitting bumps at a decent speed. Sounds like it's coming from the back. Haven't heard any rubbing during hard cornering yet. So maybe that 0.2 inch difference between swifts and eibachs may make the difference in rubbing??

To me, these have way better grip than stock in wet and dry conditions. Not sure if it's due to the tires or the added width or a little bit of both. I just swapped back to stocks until the next race and can immediately feel ride quality difference. Little bit more tire on the titans makes bumps less jarring and smoother. Once my stocks need changing, I'll be putting 4s on those...just debating if I should go 35 instead of 30 series.

You mind posting some close up pics? This is what I was worried about, I had a feeling it was going to rub with swifts. Do you think dropping to 255/35/18 might fix the rubbing issue?

I think 255s might help. It'll really depend on the shape of the sidewall also. That's why I ended up getting 4s, the sidewall is a little more round than some other tires. The rubbing really isn't that bad though. I'll try and post some close ups later. I'm at work now and can't have my phone with me and gotta prep for this damn hurricane coming (from Hawaii) lol.

Anyone hear anything about the bronze set? for the TR10 and the Ts5? I'm waiting on them, but also saw the RSR 309 and thought those were similar and nice too. But it's willing to wait for the titans.

Any news would be greatly appreciated on the bronze.

I spoke to Titan last week concerning the TR10 in 19", no plans currently, and inquired about the bronze color. They are interested in offering the color but have no ETA on when it would be available. Whomever I spoke to said maybe year-end/new year but that demand for current options is keeping them so busy expanding the line further wasn't priority at this point.

I'm picking up a set of Titan7 TS-10 with Michelin Sport 4s 255/35/18 tomorrow, and I'm currently on Eibach lowering springs. I hope the 255 will prevent rub since I often have 2 passengers in the back, albeit they are 120lbs combined. I'll keep posted as I put some miles on them.
