hi fellas,

Decided as you do, that because my wheels needed refurbishing and getting that sorted would take more effort in a shorter space of time that i would just buy some new wheels :D
settled on some BBS CH replicas from BM autosport

had to remove my 25mm rear spacers which im abit gutted about but ill try get some smaller ones made i think.

just iphone pics for now, will get some proper ones on sunday











couldnt resist




I got some photos of the car before changing the wheels too which some might like?









enjoy :)
 
Looking good Gav , great choice of wheel against the car colour :)
Will you be selling the rear spacers ? 8) Might be fitting refurbed 108's to my Zc & they would benefit from sitting that bit further out IMO
 
no i dont think i am at the moment, was going to keep them for when the ellipsoids go back on in winter.... but i could be persuaded to part with them
 
Great wheels and look great Gav and that is a pimp caravan!! :rofl:

If you send me your spacers tell me what size you need. I can machine your ones down just pay the postage maybe a donation to the forum if your interested? :thumbsup:

i might do that, or i might just get you to make some for these wheels, not sure what size id need actually
can you do the ones that i can bolt my wheel too and not the ones that need longer wheel bolts?
 
The bolt on type will only work 20mm or bigger I would have thought so you can get enough thread engagement? If I make new ones I would have to charge for the metal as well. I am going to be making a stud kit so I can use nuts rather than bolts to get round the alignment problem with spacers.
 
They're lovely :thumbsup:

Have to say, might just be viewing angles but I don't think they need spacers ?
 
Nice set of wheels...the more I see the CH's the better they look...

Suit the car perfect and I personally think they don't need spacing..

Mark.. :thumbsup:
 
Cheers guy :)
The wheels are 18" staggered set 8 front 9 rear

I've just got use to the rear being closer to the arch so now it looks too tucked and it doesn't look as beefy from the back. You can see on the bottom pics where I have my old wheels on, the behind view looks fat with the wheels out further
 
That mean my 18s are no good? :lol:
A Motorsport wheel needs to have a decent size of rubber, once lowered it will all work perfectly and not have a harsh ride like 19s
