Jwsturner Posted March 4, 2013 Share Posted March 4, 2013 Hi, has anyone got 18" alloys fitted? Are there any problems?. My street pack ones need straightening an two need a refurbishment. Was thinking of just replacing them. Probably stick with 17" was just curious about the 18" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
b1g_dav3 Posted March 4, 2013 Share Posted March 4, 2013 No problems whatsoever with the 18's fitting wise, won't rub at all if fitted with 35 profile's, just there's the problem - a 35 profile tyre. Doesn't soak up anything at all. I'd stick with 17's personally (despite the fact I won't go above 16 :P ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jwsturner Posted March 6, 2013 Author Share Posted March 6, 2013 What colour alloys do you think will look good on a vision blue fez. I'm thinking of white team dynamics imola. But they also do shadow chrome and silver. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UK roads are more like tarmac-ed Swiss cheese.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chaz84 Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 It would look cool but have you thought about the size up mite make your car a bit slower with the extra weight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
