3.3TT Ark 287 Wheels

[XZe]

I dont have mine yet. If they arent they will probably go back. I called ark and they gave me the weight prior to order. They are trying to figure out a fix for the Wheels prior to shipping anymore. I wont run them without TPMS so hopefully they figure it out later today. If these dont turn out to work, I will be back on the hunt.... More than likely will just go with the 225S though.

i am getting an appointment for the recall right now, after that i will see if i could go out to ark the other day so they can figure out a fix for it.

How does TPMS come into play? I just ordered wheels for next summer.

TPMS is basically telling the computer in your car what psi your tires are at.
They are in the valve stem.
All you need to do basically is check where the valve stem is in your rims.
If its the front theres no problem.
If its in the back of the wheel then make sure it doesnt rub with anything.

I was curious so I emailed Ark about the weights of the 19's and here is their response:

The 287 9.5" weighs 33lbs and the 287 in 10" weighs 36lbs

So obviously some conflicting information from Ark on the weights of their 19" wheels if you were told they all weigh between 26 and 28 pounds.

I asked Nick from Khartunerz to confirm the weight. He should get us the answer.

@NICK_KHAR confirmed. Weights are around 25 (25.25 to be exact) He sent me a pic of a Ark Wheel on the Scale. Not sure who gave you that weight.

LMAO WHAT??!!!??? That is bizarre. Im good with trusting Nick though. He has been straight up with everything. The pic he sent shows the wheel on a scale and Im good with that. When I get them Ill post pics of them on a scale.

@NICK_KHAR is this the Matte Gunmetal? Really eyeing for the Gloss Black, guess its sold out. but this color will do on my Black Stinger. Saving to buy a set soon!

Looking good bro and light.

Just weighed them 27.6 with a little bit of wrapping around them so right around 27 lbs. Couldn't be happier for the price and style!

Thanks again @NICK_KHAR

Aye!
Cant wait to see them go on! Let me know how you end up dealing with the tpms.

Im going to do a band for the tpms. Worst case ill shave the calipers. Im assuming the band will work just fine.
