Martin Posted November 10, 2007 Author Share Posted November 10, 2007 hi much would you expect to pay for tyres Not to sure. Not to much about £400 Toyo/Falken/Goodyear/Yokohama Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
standardsupra20 Posted November 11, 2007 Share Posted November 11, 2007 Is it possible to ballance these cheap wheels? I'm still not sure if getting a cheap set is the way forward. I drive the car quite hard & often travel over 130mph, are these rims safe? Must admit thou love the look of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tricky-Ricky Posted November 11, 2007 Share Posted November 11, 2007 They do take a little bit more weight than you would expect, but then there is no knowing how much that is down to the tyres, i have had top brand tyres that have taken loads of weight to get them balanced.

Martin Posted November 13, 2007 Author Share Posted November 13, 2007 Got them today and they look very nicely finished. All I need now is a set of tyre's. The wheel's are 18" with 8.5 and 9.5. So I was going for 275/35/18 for the rear's and 235/40/18 for the fronts. What do you reckon on these size's? Are Camskill ok?

Supradan Posted November 13, 2007 Share Posted November 13, 2007 I was looking into getting some of these but decided that 450 for wheels plus 450 for tyres plus fitting and del adds up to just under £1000 ....for an extra 89 i can have a set of 18" ultralites off paul whiffin Just waiting out for second hand ones but every day its getting harder not to order them:D:D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

louisjames Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 i bought of em few times, do NOT buy their budget tyres with the rims, they are shit. my mate had probs though, damaged wheel on arrival, 4 weeks to get refund. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin Posted November 18, 2007 Author Share Posted November 18, 2007 Really happy with these wheels. I went for Toyos in the end. Managed to put them on Saturday. But saw my new neighbour as I was putting them on and he told me he works for Goodyear and could of got me a 40% discount. What a bummer...!! So will be probably selling my old wheel's and tyre's. One of the front wheels has a buckel in it, might be repairable but all the tyre's are like new. Goodyear F1's Have a look at my garage at them, proper split rims to. Will be putting them on real soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
