18" Front + Rear

[bagpuss 996r]

Got mine last week no probs with clearance runs as good /bad ride
wise as before. Grip is awsome with toyo 215x35x18 front 235x40x18
rear although would be tempted to go for 40 profile next on front
so much easier to clean than old ones.ps still got originals e-mail
if anyone interested.

This looks gr8 too! really good in fact. What pipes you got on that car ??

[scorcher]

I think those 18's fill those arches quite nicely.Way to go......

[macdeb]

Very nice. Can I ask what make they are and where you got them from? Also, are they four stud?

[chevtrev]

Two observations if you don't mind,and nice wheels.
I'm sure your aware and just wondered why you did'nt go for 35 profiles to the rear to keep the same rr.
With the right offset 265 will fit under the arch'es,infact 285 if you are willing to loose some inner track.

Hi bk racing wheels went for 40s to keep ride quality.Dident need to go
to any bigger tyres doesent spin now in wet only causes aq plaining anyway

Have you kept the old brake disks and pads on?

[bagpuss 996r]

Yes still on old disk and pads give me chance to save up.
Doing my bushes next then roll bar.

What did you do about the temp wheel? Obviously the old one is no good any more. Did you get an 18" one or just trust to tyre weld.

Thanks Dave.

Those wheels look great. Front suspension's off mine now so the rear should be out of the way by mid week (got to keep up with the decorating as well!)

Roll bar will be next up so give me a call in a couple of weeks and you should be able to come over and have a look, I'll even offer you a cuppa next time !
