These are Fox Racing RS3 wheels i believe?....which i have fitted on my Cerb and are now obsolete.I take it that they are not new as i tried to get some new ones for the front of mine a few years back and they are like hens teeth.What size and width are yours?

[mrvol]

What are the dimensions? 18".. and what Tire size looks like 225/40 18 ß is that right ?

[spitfire4v8]

it might be an optical illusion but the offset looks completely wrong. Hope you didn't pay much for them!

[spongy]

Sorry bud think they would look better a darker colour, would go better with your body colour.i have tried some silver ones on mine and it looked crap.......and i mean crap.i have a thing about big poished lips on my rims but i dont think it suits this style of car.love the body colour.

[spongy]

wheel looks too far out,now its been pointed out.

[Gray_101]

Mmmmm good point gentlemen, about the size,,,, ( to be honest i just bolted them on with out looking ),,,, i will check it out tomorrow, when i get back to the workshop,,,, Thanks

Mine are 18" 7J front with 225/35 tyres and 9J back with 255/35 tyres,can`t remember the offset but they have been on the car 6 years without a problem.
I have recently thought about putting RL7`s back on mine but everyone i have talked to said im mad as these wheels make the car!

Thanks for that info, There so much lighter than my spiders,, i was amazed

[ridds]

Can you get a shot from the top down? Do they stick out of the wheel arch at all?

[esso]

Just be aware that the rims are stainless and i could not find anywhere to repair them when i badly kerbed a front one,thats why i ended up buying 2 new front ones.

Too blingy like your afterburner lights dude

My car is a lighter colour than yours & it looks crappy with sliver wheels, I am changing my spiders & fitting a set of RL7's that I am changing to anthracite. It will really suit your car having those wheels in anthracite

[Gazzab]

Did I spot those on the green cerb at RP last week. Didn't like them on the green one. In the pic they suit your car better. Maybe anthracite might improve them again. Spiders look far better IMHO.

Does the Cerb have a negative scrub radius?

Thanks for your input Guys.....................

But after sleeping on it, i decided to return the bling wheels and go back to spiders ( even tho they weigh a ton )
