I finally got off my arse and got a new set of wheels for the chim, I would like to send my thanks to apache and richard branch for there help supplying info some time ago. it was very handy, but still took me a solid week to sort all the correct fittings before I had the nerve to order them.

Here goes, first time posting a pic.

They are 8x18 all round,I was a bit worried that they may look too big when I ordered them, but as they are in anthracite I think they look fine.

Tyres are 225x35 front and 245x35 rear.

They look really good Monaco - are they available in smaller sizes ie 17s?

The darker colour suits the colour of your car ...

Yep they are available in 17" but the design is a 5 spoke wheel for anything under an 18", but still nice and in a number colours.

excellent, nicely restrained. Anthracite is becoming a popular if difficult choice and doesn't work with every body colour. Black, silver, orange, bronze and blue seem to work, ain't seen a green combo yet but I'm sure it would work

Hurrumph!

I can't see no steenkin' picture!

Is this a Fotango members-only thing that you havn't moved to the public thang or is my PC illustratively challenged?
