Default Wheels & TireRack

I'm recently became the happy owner of an F-Type R and am connecting with the car so quickly that I cannot stand the thought of not using it in winter time, even though it's an RWD version. So, I called my trusty friends at TireRack and asked about wheels. It turns out they've never gotten their hands on any F-Type to measure for fitment so they have almost zero wheel options they can offer for the car. Are there any F-Type owners here who live near South Bend and would be willing to head over to TireRack to let them measure your car?

I'd do it, but...well...I'm a few thousand miles away. (yeah, I know...excuses excuses)

You'd think that one of the 4 people I talked to at TR might have suggested that. Glad I posted here, you just saved me a fair chunk of change. Thanks!

I found them by accident myself!

However, not sure why TR cannot provide the SVR winter packages m/b with the 433mz TPMS (same sensors TR sells individually)

That's odd. The SVRs use 433mhz. Maybe its the 315mhz they don't offer on that package?

Nope. I used MY2017 to build the package.
Interestingly, if you enter a 2017 SVR and simply want just the TPMS, the 433 are available.
