Wheels from my Sagaris

[JLF]

Have changed the wheels on the Sagais for 19” so do I put the old ones on eBay or keep them?
Can’t see why I would keep unless I use for track days …however the car is now setup for the 19” wheels with a nice set of new Gaz Gold Pros
For me a track day is more – turn up, drive for a bit and drive home. Really can’t be bothered with changing wheels and all the setup for a track day outing. That being said I have not tracked this car yet.

Wheels just had a refurb so mint.

Anthracites? If so, please PM me a price. For some reason I can't PM from my phone to ask you.

Drive the car for a bit with the 19's on and then make a decision. 18's will drive so much better so you may change your mind, the spiders you have are as you say in great condition so they will sell at any time.

There's a shed load of lead on that wheel to balance it .

[JLF]

Shed load……yes. These wheels are a little soft as we know…and I wanted to ensure they had no shudder. For road use they have been sound.


Paul good advice re keeping

What wheels did you go for? I'm thinking of bigger wheels to fit bigger brakes....

You don't need bigger wheels to fit bigger brakes, we have 380mm on the front with 18" wheels, they handle much better on 18" and tyres are easier to get hold of at better prices.

Hi Craig, spot on. Paul.......

I thought the brake disc size for the Sag was 330, not 380?

Original Size is 322mm, upgrade to 330mm is possible without changing the calipers. Next Step is 356/362mm or 380mm, but you need a new caliper, preferably a 6 piston one. But be aware of the brake force distribution....

Ah yes, sorry - 322mm is standard Tuscan S and Sagaris size:
