Hey hey,

Fitted my 18" Works today, reasonably happy with them. Might end up painting the centers black..Im never bloody happy with anything!!

Although a reasonably light rim, not forged tho, i can feel the extra weight that the car has to carry, thats for sure. Mind you i still had 2 of the old ZR rims in the car on the way home.

I guess ill stick with them for now, but i might have to change my whole approach to the style of the ZR and go for forged lightweights, providing the weight loss is significant enough.

I know its not a race car, but just as i was squeezing the extra balls out of it, the new shoes have slowed things down... pic tomorrow on my members ride page.. Maybe its my imagination, i guess time will tell..

:blink:

Check members rides for update and pics. I dont think it has slowed the car, that is, once up and going. The car def handles much better, far more grip. Accel from a rolling start is slower, but not once up and going. I guess bigger diameter and slight weight all plays a roll...

Anyhoo, check em:

would 16 inch rims with an offset of +50 fit on a zre?

Hey Will, it depends on how wide the rims are. But most chances, +50 offset will cause inner wheel scrubbing. +50 will mean your wheels will be more tucked in, as opposed to say +38 will be the opposite (wheels sticking out more). :)
