19" Vs. 18": Pics of your Tuscan alloys please!!

[Filos Hippos]

Ok, this topic might have been covered a thousand of times but with the search function down I can't seem to find the thread I'm looking for...

Can anyone point me in the right direction or better still, ...

Post some pics of the wheels on your tuscan: any brand, any colour, any shape, any size, ...

Who's first?

And don't give me this BS "you should stay with the orignals" because they eeeeuhm, ... suck, Ok, they look the part, especially in black gloss or anthracite but I'm sure I've eaten cheese that's harder than these spider alloys...

They seems to be a trend

Where are you getting the Jade R's from and what offsets would be needed?

Kevin from aberdeen is the man to speak to if your want the jade logo blended out of the wheels for the factory look. Makes the Tuscan sit too high IMHO opinion tho. 19s and slammed for looks, 18s and normal for best(ish) handling!

I bought mine from this company in Reading http://www.elitewheels.co.uk/, I specified to have no "Jade R" logo on one of the spokes.

Does anyone know if the offsets are the same between Tuscan 1, 2 and Sagaris?

Also, I had heard that 19's can ruin the handling and cause tramlining etc??

Mine tram lines like a bd!!!!!

That's the trouble. Looks vs driveability. 19's look the best without question, yet 18's probably drive better....

Provided its lowered further than standard id say

I have never experienced any handling issues, mine was set up with them on when I bought it, but if I thought it was making a difference when on the track or on road I would most deffently put 18s back on. In fact when I first got it my intention was to take the 19s right off on put spiders on as I didn't like the after market look, so got rid of the jade r logos and then found myself loving them.

I've just bought a set of these for the Sag....

Decided to go for 8.5 x 18 up front, 9.5 x 18 on the back. Have had to mess about with the offsets, but hopefully will all be ok. Will post some pics up as soon as I can get them on.

Also these would look good on a Sag or Tuscan I reckon...
