New wheels fitted!

Post by peppernick » Thu Aug 09, 2007 10:04 pm

My Schmedien Indivis finally touched down in London after a long trek from Tokyo. They are gorgeous! Hyper silver face, white on the inside.

19X8.5 ET 35
19x9.5 ET 22

They are so light I can feel the reduction in unsprung weight in the steering and acceleration. So crisp now :thumbsup:

Plenty of clearance for my Brembos too.

They look amazing, I thought they would looks a bit "RS4" but they don't. Almost like a modern take on the CSL wheel.

Car already riding on H&R Sport springs. Any lower and it'll not be functional enough for places like the Nurburgring.


With these wheels and the Brembo brakes, I've managed to shave 10lb per corner from stock! Driving the ZM is like riding a grasshopper now! Loving it :thumbsup:
