Thanks to a lot of members, I have now seen photos of all, except the LRM, wheels in my shortlist as 18s on a zed and the conclusion is....still as indecisive as when I started! Got a couple of favourites though so will probably make an impulse choice and perhaps look to change a few times throughout my time with the zed.

Anyone else running 18" aftermarket rims and care to post up a PIC?

How about Apex EC-7 sheels? You can get 8,5Jx18 ET 35 for the fronts with 9,5Jx18 ET 43 for the rear with a different concave profile than the fronts. With some lowering they should like great. Another great feature is that they accept factory BMW roundels.

Love Apex wheels and have looked at photos of them on Zpost but there don't seem to be many dealers here in the UK and the ones that do sell them are very expensive.
