Just got them:hyper:Hope you like them but they tick all the boxes for me deep dish,chrome, staggered fitment and I like my nuts hidden:lol:

Some pic's but no tyres yet but put them on the zed to check fitment with 25mm front spacers and theyfit perfect. Need some help on tyre sizes the alloys are 18" 8 at front and 18" 9.5 rear I was thinking 245x40x18" front and 265x40x18" rear would that be right?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Sexy new rims !! They are gonna look great wrapped in some nice tyres :cool3:

 

Thanks Jimmer the tyre search starts tomorrow:thumbup1:

The only thing between your car and the road is a small footprint of your tyres so they will be premium rubber mate:yes:

18's are a tried and tested size, best of both world's regarding comfort and look's

 

cant wait to see the, on mate

 

agreed !!

They will be even better IF you put the correct size tyre/profile combo on them......

 

Front 245/40-18.....653 mm diameter

Rear 265/35-18.....643 mm diameter.

Difference 10mm. or 1.53%... well within recomended limits

 

Even closer...

Front 235/40-18....645 mm diam

2mm or 0.13% difference:sailor:

Thanks pixas:thumbup1:

.............they are almost identical to the alloys on the black lwb, hope to get tyres tomorrow.

 

Great looking wheels Gary - I loved the set you had on your black Z so I do like these for sure!!

 

And 235 on the front is probably for the best; any wider and I hear of tramlining issues......

Thanks Rich and yes the black zed looked good with the JDM alloys

 

 

 

 

Just a quick update tyres now fitted:hyper: and the Toyo's look great but did not have time to get them fitted on the zed yet so hopefully get them on tomorrow and will take some pic's.

i have 265 rear and 235 currently on the front. was thinking of going for 245 on the front though next time. why will i get tramlining from the bit extra??

 

No idea Mikey - I have heard it said before tis all - I have nothing to back that up with.....:blush:

 

Richard:surrender:

Got any pictures yet Gary?

that is by far the worst argument i have ever heard. lol. :ban:

 

LOL - I bet it's not mate!!!

 

Richard:tt2:

Got any pictures yet Gary?

 

Working on three cars today and got as far as getting one wheel on the zed then my mother landed and work stoped:rolleyes: But dont fear as I am getting up early tomorrow to get the rest on so plenty of pic's tomorrow mate.:thumbup:

Yeah 235 front 265 rear, Any wider at the front will not cause tram lining so dont let that put you off but like other posts say overall diameter is closer 235-265 unless you change the rear to match the front 245-275... All good anway Just so you know if you do decide to go 245 its only 8mm extra overall diameter so tiny really....

Top man Gaz.....we are all looking forward to them.

 

Tell me and a lot off topic :wacko: I met a nice guy today and his accent was very similar to yours, I enquired and he said he was originally from Bangor, not trying to say you all sound the same but are you actually from Belfast itself is my question to you bud?
