wheels now sit more flush with arch rather than sitting in, but the pic don't really do it justice as you dont get the size of the rear lip in the pic looks stunning IRL, however i'll post some much better pics soon, just wanted to share and maybe help any one that contemplating some rims springs etc.



ciao for now

Looking good! I really like Cades Tyrus black and silver, what size tyres do you have fitted?

slight bit over deep crests or speed bumps but i can sort that anyway, ride is very firm but better than the 108's on runflats, handling and cornering is like its stuck to the road with glue :)

Running 18" cades here, its a great looking wheel, your car looks a lot more aggressive :thumbsup:

I am thinking of going for 19" csl reps, i know its a common choice but, it is for a reason. Here is mine on the 18's, it is a big dish on the rears, easy to clean though!

I've seen a couple of Zeds on Cades Tyrus wheels recently and I think I'm genuinely in love!!!

Love the look of those wheels on Zeds. Esp the silver black combination.
Great choice. :thumbsup:

(not sure if they'd look right on my Maldives blue roadster though unfortunately)

Also do you think you can get away with 20mm spacers on the rear and 15mm on the fronts?
