New Wheels Fitted
Hello,
Just thought I would put my 2004 E85 2.5i Z on here with it's new wheels and tyres.
They are Cades Shift in frozen silver 18x8 with 35 offset front and 18x9 with 40 offset rears.
Tyres are Uniroyal rainsport 3's with Richbrook nickel plated valves and Mcgard locking nuts.
Car is on Eibach pro springs and has had a full front suspension refresh.
Mods include stubby, black kidney grills and debadged.
Currently on 160,000 miles and just completed a road trip down the north coast of France.
Looking good for its age IMO.
Cheers.

They're looking sweet - and look bigger than 18s as they nicely fill out the arches. That blue though man...

Normally not a fan of aftermarket alloys but these look pretty good especially against the best colour for a Zed

I find that aftermarket alloys can be a little hit and miss - these are a hit, sets off the blue paintwork nicely
You'd never guess the mileage - these cars don't seem to date

They do fill the arches rather nicely for 18's, and I think the design also makes them look bigger. I had an awkward time getting my 19's to fill the arches properly.
