How do you know? You can get them in more than one offset etc...

yep there 7's and 38, i asked them about going to 33 or 35 and it was a six week wait, they had 38s on the shelf and a two day turnaround amazing from rimstyle, and no one was even close to there prices especially with the pradas

Im in the same sort of predicament(ish)

Do i go for tuck with 195's

Or low et with poke but have to run 165's

15" wheel

i was actually temped for 15's but decided against them in the end, they do the yokohama ad08s on them for 677,

Are they good?

Im looking at 15x7 4x100 but with a 54.0 centre bore

I think et 40 is my only option... Wheels are soo hard to judge

indeed read some reviews herd good stuff about them, there alot less then r888's and are comparable apparently, there listed as a fast track road tyre, though ive never tried them personally

im really impressed with rimstyle, cant belive i only ordered them tues night lol, they rung me this morning to expect them today, spot on service. It was no extra if i wanted a different offset too just would have had to wait around 6 weeks.

They won't clear Brembo's then. Annoying if you ever decide you want to go for them... :(

Lovely looking car

M I N T

:thumbup:

Looks awesome Trev good choice of wheels, much better than the steelies :thumbup:

Welcome to the 5 spoke club :) they look B)

Can you do me a favour Trev? Measure from the centre of your wheel to the arch for front and rear? Now you are on 17's that's the sort of ride height I would like to achieve :thumbup:

Looks very smart, butttttt can you not notice the difference in whites??? I can see the difference in the pics and would be tempted to get my wheels done the same White as the car.

Look Good, But definitely needs 312mms now

will do be interesting to see any difference fromt he 18s in ride height

indeed my steelies are done in the same ford frozen white, it looks alot better in the flesh but shows up worse in the pics then the difference actually is

Look Good, But definitely needs 312mms now

from floor the the arch its 60cm front 61.5cm rear, tempted to take the rear adjusters out but keep the cups that should bring it down to a nice even 60 all round, its spot on really handles well and dont really catch on anything even with the front splitter, i just take care over the central speed bumps and go one wheel over them

  • Author

just taken the rear adjusters out today been for a blast to let the springs settle, and its bang on 60cm at the back, so its perfect now 60rear 60front woohoo
