Beau Posted June 3, 2012 Author Share Posted June 3, 2012 I don't think they are that bad, (I've seen much worse done to a Zed) I'm with Ricey - I sort of like them. Practicality may be an issue but variety is the spice of life. A decent corner and there will be tyre damage, I'll put my money on it. I am a bit confused to how you think going around a corner will lead to tyre damage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chettle Posted June 3, 2012 Share Posted June 3, 2012 I dont like them sorry I think it would look alot better if they were tucked into the arches more... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am a bit confused to how you think going around a corner will lead to tyre damage there wouldn't well lets compress the suspension and see what the tyre hits ...... The car looks as though its still on stock suspension which is soft. The body roll will be awful. I can guarantee that those will rub If you can look at this picture and tell me that a decent pot hole or bit of body roll wont make this contact the arch then your bonkers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neilp Posted June 3, 2012 Share Posted June 3, 2012 I edited my last post. I can guarantee a tight bend at with any sort of bump will cause those to catch on the front on a lock. What I dont think you realise is that it probably not the metal arch its rubbing it'll be the arch liner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stew Posted June 3, 2012 Share Posted June 3, 2012 Should have got 24s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rtbiscuit Posted June 3, 2012 Share Posted June 3, 2012 they'll be rubbing yes, but after seeing the beating someone elses tyres took from rubbing alot, its suprising how resiliant a tyre is. if i hadn't seen it with my own eye's i would agree with you neil. i'd be interested to know what the handling will be like on that, as the increase in road contact at the front has got to change the handling characteristics. that and the increase in unsprung weight.

Ekona Posted June 3, 2012 Share Posted June 3, 2012 And I thought the original 19" wheels you had on there were bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
docwra Posted June 4, 2012 Share Posted June 4, 2012 Youve asked for opinions ........ this backs up comments Ive made elsewhere on here, that cheap wheels will always look cheap. Having them this big (although I am surprised that they look to fit OK) will just draw more attention to them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KyleR Posted June 4, 2012 Share Posted June 4, 2012 I think they are too big, too shiny and the dish is way too big on the front for a roughian like the Zed. I like things a little more simple. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luke0549 Posted June 5, 2012 Share Posted June 5, 2012 Also, appears to be illegal tinted windows? Sell the wheels whilst you can, get some decent 18's and enjoy the handling the car once had before you ruined it. 2p Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
