scotZ Posted March 30, 2008 Share Posted March 30, 2008 I have a chance of a secondhand set of rims - 19x8.5 +35 offset on the front and 19x9.5 +40 offset on the rear. This would be my first set of aftermarket wheels, so I'm a bit of a noob when it comes to this. I currently have the 18x8 +30 offset Touring v1 wheels on mine - would the 19's fit and what would I need? All help and comments much appreciated!

lomoto Posted March 30, 2008 Share Posted March 30, 2008 wrong offset for Zed, they will be too far inside the arches Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scotZ Posted March 30, 2008 Author Share Posted March 30, 2008 Thx lomoto - think I'm going to have to do some serious studying before I jump into buying Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jim Posted March 30, 2008 Share Posted March 30, 2008 Good to hear from you again scotZ. Hope you get something sorted out with the wheels. I keep seeing your car in the station car park - you must get there very early to get a space so near the road. I usually end up parking away at the back, well away from other cars if I can!

scotZ Posted March 30, 2008 Author Share Posted March 30, 2008 hey jim - yeah, i'm normally on the 7:41 to edinburgh. cheers for the recommendation on Bumps - I had it in there last week and the guy (another jim btw) did a top job for a very good price. I think I'm getting the modding bug - had the JWT and the plenum spacer fitted yesterday and loving the noise when the revs get above 3500 That'll be another dip in the fuel economy then! I'm not off the train back until after 6 - think I must miss your Zed!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scotZ Posted March 30, 2008 Author Share Posted March 30, 2008 'll keep an eye out for it if I get let off early for a change! Are there many others around our area? I've seen one pretty heavily modded silver effort - but always going the other way... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've seen one pretty heavily modded silver effort - but always going the other way... Yes - I've seen that one a couple of times too. It could be Argyll, formerly Tosker. He's from around this area. Derek ZR (Azure roadster) is not too far away either. Chris from JDMPerformance (formerly Funkystyling) is in Bo'ness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scotZ Posted March 30, 2008 Author Share Posted March 30, 2008 Good - we don't want to lose our rarity value Seems like every second motor around here is a Scooby with an exhaust like the Chunnel... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too true The local council have apparently asked the police to clamp down on the loud exhausts. They're going to be busy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scotZ Posted March 30, 2008 Author Share Posted March 30, 2008 If they manage that, it'll take so many cars off the road that it will cure global warming! By all accounts there's a cruise at Tesco's in Falkirk on the last Thursday of the month - never seen it myself, I'm always in Glasgow on a Thursday night...
