G1en Posted May 25, 2016 Share Posted May 25, 2016 After 3 months of waiting. These have arrived via Torqen. Just given them a coat of G-techniq C5. Now need to sort some tyres 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GMballistic Posted May 25, 2016 Share Posted May 25, 2016 Very, very nice. So what sizes are they then? 19's, 9.5J & 10J?? ...and what size rubber are you thinking of for them?. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superman001 Posted May 25, 2016 Share Posted May 25, 2016 Lovely wheels, you going 245 front and 265 rears? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G1en Posted May 25, 2016 Author Share Posted May 25, 2016 18x8.5 and 18x9.5 Et22 Dont want the stance look but equally stock rays are way too conservative so these will be a nice middle ground. They feel light but will do obviously with no tyres. Going for 245/40 fronts and 275/40 rears probably pilotSS as thats whats on the rays The Z is already low on coilovers with ARBs all eibach stuff fitted by cougarstore. Spent a small fortune there as Mitz will vouch for so these will hopefully finish the car off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look forward to some fitted pics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Synx Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 What wheels are these? What are they called? They look like they would suit a Zed so well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrLee Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 Don't suppose these are replacing a set of rays are they? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G1en Posted May 31, 2016 Author Share Posted May 31, 2016 They are Mr Lee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrLee Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 And would you happen to be planning on selling aforementioned Rays at all? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G1en Posted May 31, 2016 Author Share Posted May 31, 2016 50/50 to be honest. I bought them off a forum member a couple of months back and they are near perfect with michelin pilotSS tyres fitted so want to keep them but i have spent so much on the zed i could do with some money back. I paid £650 but it will cost me £700 for the tyres for the new wheels. Where abouts are you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Synx Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 People always want rays. I want a set as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrLee Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 Margate, so about 250 miles away.... not exactly a quick pick up unfortunately as I may as well be in France! That being said I've been after a set for ages now, so I'm definitely interested if you decide to sell them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G1en Posted May 31, 2016 Author Share Posted May 31, 2016 Will definately let you know after i fit the new wheels Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrLee Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 Thanks, if I could at least have first refusal I'd be much appreciative! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G1en Posted July 2, 2016 Author Share Posted July 2, 2016 So after waiting 4 weeks for payday. Got round to fitting my new wheels complete with the forum approved MPSS tyres. 245/40 fronts and 275/40 rears. Also got full alignment done. Due to having coilovers on and superpro bushes best they could get to was -1.35 camber front and -2.2 camber rear so they do angle in at the top slightly more than recommended spec but car setup now seems perfect. Maybe adj camber arms for future purchase? Anyway. Here are some quick pics i took when i got home. Sorry not the best, car hasnt been cleaned for 3 weeks although it is holding up very well with my amatuer detailing done last time. Also i am probably going to sell my rays now as need the cash so if anyone is looking for some almost perfect PM me or i will get round to doing an advert shortly 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
veilside z Posted July 2, 2016 Share Posted July 2, 2016 Looking great fitted. Just feel they could benefit spacers though. Yes I agree the adjustable camber arms would be the way to go to get your perfect alignment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
