Wheel he or won't he...?

[Jono]

My S15 with the alloys I want to order (photoshop). Sadly, they don't come in the width I'd like but the limited choice of styles in the sizes that are best is making me think I'll just go for it and fit wider tyres than normal. At least they'll look good and they'll still be better than standard wheels in terms of width etc.

Kei Racing Force 10: 18" x 7.5 in HyperBlack

Except the wheel shop have been told not to sell them as there may be an issue with caliper clearance

D2's then. :nod:

 

[Nicely]

Copy cat :rant:

Just remember that the D2s won't sit snug under the arches.

You said it was OK for me to copy you if I promised to admit that Blue is the best colour... which I did!

Thusly:

Anyway, I'm going for Gun Metal coloured!

D2's on Pewter S15 \/ \/ \/ :wave: What size are you getting those in??

Painting the whole car is a bit extreme just to hide the embarrassment of Pewter...

18's - if I can get them to fit without messing about with arch mod's.

 

[Topper]

18x what? with what offset?

I'm guessing 8.5x18 +32

Oh yeah - momentary lapse in concentration.

I'm having trouble even finding a wheel supplier locally who would test some wheels for best fit. The nearest is West B'ham and they're talking about ?3500 a set for Works! The're a serious supplier though, deal with supercars mainly.

This is doing my head in now - need new tyres by the end of the summer and I wanted new wheels too but I can see it's just gonna be a nightmare.
