New wheels ideas....
 
Looking for some ideas for new wheels for my type R (blue)

5/6 spoke preferred.

Defo not multi spoke or white.

Pictures would be great. Thanks!

Could you post wheel and tire spec mate? Any rubbing issues?

Rota's are about your best choice and Maggy in RTS can sort you a good price, as well as Hixxy's mine has the GTR which is the five spoke equivalent - I know it's a bug and their white, but at least you can get an idea about the wheels:thumb:

I thought the Grid Drift didn't fit the GC8. Hmmmmm They are very nice.

gimme a shout mate and i can hook you up with some new rims :thumb: check out my thread in the trader section

ScuuBdoo 13 March 2012 12:18 PM

Thanks M444GY but I live in Dublin so no point in me paying Sterling for a set of wheels. Cost more with currency conversion.

Thanks to everybody for the help so far. Kind of swaying towards a set of Milleniums in gold at the moment but also like the Rota Grid and Boost.

ScuuBdoo 15 March 2012 09:57 PM

Anybody got pictures of Grid Drift fitted to GC8s???

Scott@ScoobySpares 15 March 2012 10:18 PM

OK was in my local shop today getting a price on these and the owner thinks the 18 * 8.5 ET44 would need arch work on a GC8 as these are more suited to the New Age. I really just want fit and forget package.
