Fancy some new rims as I have the 20" turbo rims on mine in black with diamond cut face, fancy some 19" but wider but can't make my mind up, any ideas ? Plus anyone running 11" wide on the rear with 295 tyres? Do they catch if so.
I have the updated suspension on mine and carbon brakes just in case that matters

Cheers

why would you want wider wheels on it, it would handle worse and have more unsprung weight ?

Not that I like the turbo wheels, Not a nice wheel at all imo

but the bi colour sports wheels look great on a GTS

I quite like the look of the turbo wheels, but I would never choose them for myself because they look a PITA to clean!

I wouldn't have picked them myself, it's not that I don't like them it's just I fancy a change, but they came on the car, I like the spider rims but fancy something different to them as most have them fitted.
As for the 11" rims in 19's I saw some I like but they only come in 11" wide as they are concave on the rear, but wanted to know if anyone had run a size like this.
Cleaning is not really a problem as with the carbon disc set up the brake dust is almost nil

Thinking OZ as nice and light and price is not to bad as well

I'd get hold of some GT4 wheels. Will be expensive but very sellable once you're done with them.

The Turbo ones look very crass, and the 'bi-colour' ones just look s**t.

Gt4 rims would be very nice
Wouldn't mind the spider rims if I could find some 2nd hand ones for sale
