Digsy Posted July 9, 2009 Share Posted July 9, 2009 I think they look great, esp in black but I don't have a Zed - sorry! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rtbiscuit Posted July 9, 2009 Share Posted July 9, 2009 would these take the same sized tyres as the stock wheels are are they a bit fatter. i wish you guys would stop tempting me with wheels Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lilsheepshagga_turbo Posted July 9, 2009 Share Posted July 9, 2009 i think those in bronze would look the dog danglies... agreed on the tyre sizes aswell.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ben@RARE RIMS Posted July 9, 2009 Author Share Posted July 9, 2009 They would take the standard tyres... If you can confirm which tyres you have, i will check the recommended sizes of wheel, as i know the thought of stretched tyres has been known to upset people here a little Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rtbiscuit Posted July 9, 2009 Share Posted July 9, 2009 i'm tempted by the 18's as i have been told they are the best size for track days. i think the old addage was 19's for show, 18's for go plus i'm looking at getting some Vredestein ultrac ssantas as they are awesome tyres and i know i can get them in this size for around £500 rear 245 x 45x 18 and front 225 x 45 x 18 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ben@RARE RIMS Posted July 9, 2009 Author Share Posted July 9, 2009 225 is usually up to 9" according to manufacturer spec 245 is usually up to 9.5" according to manufacturer spec We could put them on there though, and have yet to have any problems with having this slight stretch, it's up to you really.

ben@RARE RIMS Posted July 9, 2009 Author Share Posted July 9, 2009 Prices for tyres to keep the rolling radius about right.... 245.40.18 £110.02 275.40.18 £141.02 These are fitted prices including VAT for FK452s An alternative to this would be 8.5" fronts and 9.5" rears. They would be slightly cheaper, and take standard tyres. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
