Has anybody had 18" Zenith wheels on a MK3?

Featured Replies

I'm debating some for the winter tyres, but not sure if they'll look odd or not. Has anyone got a photo they wouldn't mind sharing of them on their Octy 3?

I think there was some talk about some MKII wheels not fitting the MKIII due to the curvicture of the spokes catching the front brake callipers. Might need spacers 

 

Worth checking, might be true might not.

Aye I'd heard that about the Neptune's, which is what I originally wanted  :'(.

 

Hopefully someone might have some good news about the Zenith's too?? :nerd:

The mk2 guys who'd upgraded to the 340mm brakes had fitment issues with neptune (curved spoke) but not with 18" zenith. So based on that, you're likely to run in to clearance issues if you try a neptune on a mk3 with 340mm brakes too, but they should be fine if you have the smaller fronts (ie non vrs, or diesel with the smaller discs).

Mine have the 340mm front's; I was originally going to get Neptunes but then I heard about the clearance problems so am now looking at others :)
