New wheels

Finally got round to fitting my 18's to the coupe!
I realize these won't be to everyones taste but I think they suit the coupe quite well.
They also replace my well used 17's one of which looked like a 50 pence piece on the inside rim.

They look great

Cheers Richard

Smart

Looking good Daz

Thanks guys. The ride is so much smoother with round wheels too

What size tyres are you using? Look good!

Thanks Andy. I went for 225/35/18 in the end.
Even though I have a spare set of 225/40/18's in the garage
I wanted the speedo to be as close as possible.
The ride is no harder than on the previous 215/40/17's

Looks really cool, great choice

Thanks wmt.
It drives great even with the thinner sidewall on the new tyres and they fill the arches nicely.
I have wound the coilovers back up a little too for speed bump clearance!

Im having issues with 17s on my arch liners 215/45 17r tyres..

You should be on 215/40/17 ideally Ben.
That is the closest match to the original rolling radius and should allow 30mm of lowering with no issues.
Might be worth checking that all the arch liners are securely fastened as one of my fronts did rub a little due to a missing fixing.
