Compromotive?

 

I would say most of amature rally drivers use compromotives.

i presume thats good,

I dont think they would use them if they where not good.

Your second question: i think im right in saying 8.5J by 17 should be ok for 235s front and 255s rear

Hi Tulip

 

If your tyres are good and you want to buy new wheels of the same size I would go for 8x17 ffront and 9 or 9.5x17 rear.

 

Get in touch with Dave at DT Motorsport on http://www.dtmotorsport.co.uk

 

They are UK importers of the Azev wheels - very good quality German metal and they will get you a set drilled and casted just to fit your ZX. 17 inch Azev A's (see my rides for my own ZX) will set you back around £125-£150 per corner.
