Guy's,

Looking for some 18" wheels and would like to know the sizes I need.

Recommend offsets for 18's are +45 front and +50 rear, and 9 inch front and 10 inch at the rear.

Have now ordered some new wheels for my motor. Hopefully they should be here by the end of the week.

Very easy way of spending over a grand :D

Nice - so what wheels are you getting.

Also what are the ones on the car at the moment and what are you going to do with them :D

Cheers

I'm getting some 18" Oz Hydra Alloys. In my opinion they are a nice 5 spoke design and I do like OZ wheels.

As for the OZ wheels that are currently on there I'll be putting them up for sale on here as soon as I have the new ones in place :D

I know mate I just love the 19's he has there at the moment, a tad out of my price range and not that good for winter.....

May put up with the Nissan wheels untill bank balance is healthy again.

Tomson,

They are 17" alloys at the minute. Not sure on tyres size though but I know the tyres are fairly new. I'll find out tonight and let you know

Every one in Jap runs

18x8.5 +38 on the Front
18x9.5 +38 on the Rear

Tyres.

235/40/18 Front
265/35/18 Rear
Recommended


225/40/18 Front
255/35/18 Rear
Some people run these tyres stretched a little to give excellent turn in. The rears let go pretty easily though one power is up.

PCD 5 x 114.3
