Hey everyone,
I've just bought some new wheels for the ED (dynamic white). although they're not on the car yet, I just wanted to get everyone's opinions. They're 18x8 in hyper silver, and they are also in e series offset so they dont require hub adaptors. Also can anyone recommend a good 18" tyre? It doesn't have to be cheap, I prefer paying for quality. Cheers, GazzaED |

thanks guys, I got them from Bay city A1 wheels and tyres, who have a site on Ebay. The 18's which i got are $850 for four wheels without tyres, and they also have 17's in the same design to suit e series for $750. They will also post to anywhere in oz. I'll check out the nanhangs, they sound pretty good.
When I get the rims i'll take some more shots of them on the car. |

Damn, not a bad price at all considering what they look like. I'm tempted to once again throw some more money away on something I don't need for the car after seeing those wheels

Love the Wheels Gazza. If I could convince myself to shell out the $1700.00 needed to buy em I think I would (including tyres too)

Bit too late for opinions now isn't it? Haaha.
Seriously, they look great.

Yeah I suppose it is hey! Anyway, i'd been looking at EL GT's in shadow chrome, but when I saw these I knew that they would suit well. Finding wheels to suit a white car is harder than I thought it would be, but the slightly darker finish of these is perfect. I'm a bit unsure of how big they will look, as they are a big step up from my 15inch classic alloys!
