TonyP Posted September 17, 2007 Share Posted September 17, 2007 These I know that I will get a better wheel for twice the money but please bear in mind that for some people a budget is what they can afford and not just whatever the bill comes to. The car will never see a track, nor does it ever go over 100 leps. Are there any potential problems with buying cheaper wheels? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Missile Posted September 17, 2007 Share Posted September 17, 2007 I'd say perfect for what your using them for. Look really good aswell. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Class One Posted September 17, 2007 Share Posted September 17, 2007 They'll be fine I'm sure, however I would make sure that you adequately protect them during winter use. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TonyP Posted September 17, 2007 Author Share Posted September 17, 2007 They'll be fine I'm sure, however I would make sure that you adequately protect them during winter use. What would I use to protect them? Oh and what size tyres? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Class One Posted September 17, 2007 Share Posted September 17, 2007 What would I use to protect them? Oh and what size tyres? Zoopseal is a mentioned product, but you could use vaseline on the rims, just as effective, and keeps the crap out. Mkae sure you give your wheels a good rinse if used when the salts been laid down. As for tyre sizes I guess they're 18's so I'd pitch for F 235/45/18 R 265/40/18 or you could go upto a 275/35 on the rear. I'm sure someone with more knowledge will come along and advise you.

Homer Posted September 17, 2007 Share Posted September 17, 2007 I'm sure someone with more knowledge will come along and advise you. Or, someone with less I'd go for: F 235/40/18 R 265/35/18 I think thats as close to stock size diameter you can get. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brians25 Posted September 17, 2007 Share Posted September 17, 2007 mines are graphite in the middle, they are of good quality, if not a little on the heavy side, the offsets are bang on an no arch clearance problems whatsoever, got mine from premier wheels on ebay too, really quick delivery, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nic Posted September 17, 2007 Share Posted September 17, 2007 Depends how you define good, they'll be fine for your needs by the sound of it, but at that price they'll most likely be quite heavy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supra steveo Posted September 17, 2007 Share Posted September 17, 2007 like those wheels mate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Papercutout Posted September 17, 2007 Share Posted September 17, 2007 mines are graphite in the middle, they are of good quality, if not a little on the heavy side, the offsets are bang on an no arch clearance problems whatsoever, got mine from premier wheels on ebay too, really quick delivery, not as heavy as a set of keskins we tried a while back, man they weighed a ton! I prefer the look of them with either a gloor black or graphite centre tbh... And yeah, you'll be fine with them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
