Some style 401’s, a temporary wheel set (probably) need a spacer on the front if they stay, 15mm rear spacer

I like them, they fill the arches well :thumbsup:

Thanks Andy, want to be sure before buying 10mm spacers for the front and replacing the tires.

They were cheap and in virtually unmarked condition, so thought they’d be a temporary fix that I could move on if needed :thumbsup:
 
Temporary 401’s off (and in the classifieds), my favourite so far; Genuine Style 641M M3 winters in 19” staggered

Need to sort the tires, as square winter 255/35/19, but really liking the OEM+ look.

Look better in the metal than in the pics.

Well I finally ditched the RFTs and also got some new wheels, Veeman V-FS33s and Conti Sport 7s.

Went to BM Autosport - the folks there were really good - knowledgable, friendly and easy to do business with. Recommend.

Really pleased with the look and the ride quality is oh soooo much better :D

I can attest that the Contis are good in the wet, it rained all day, so no chance to get the roof down :headbang:

Which wheel centre caps are you using? And how do you manage to have so few stone chips?
 
After much deliberation, we have stayed with the OEM 19” 326’s and have had them refurbished by Wheel Genie (Huntingdon) in shadow chrome. The Bridgestone RFT has gone and replaced with Continental SC 7’s. still on 225/35 and 255/30 profiles. A world of difference though.

The ‘jubilee’ picture was taken before the rims were refurbished, so are slightly lighter. Someone previously had attempted to give her a shadow chrome finish but to be honest the quality of finish is night and day. And I only started considering a refurb to try to match a stock replacement rear wheel (those dreaded cracking issues).

Great to see that different options people have taken on h wheels. It does ensure each Zed has its own distinct look.

Evening folks, just thought I would bump this thread up to see if anyone has fitted any interesting wheels in the last couple of years? Im
Hoping to pick up a white M Sport next Tuesday and am looking for some inspiration!

359’s and 230’s are probably the highest contenders, unless I can find a cheap set of non-cracked 326’s.
 
If it helps 295s look just like 230s, except they are 18s rather than 19s.

Somehow I think you might struggle to find cheap non-cracked 326s!
 
I have just fitted some veemanns which replaced my old 313"s

I have the 230's on mine without spacers - they're finished in anthracite grey.

Personally I like them and they have the added bonus of being really easy to clean.
