    Default Alloys I can possibly get, opinions...

    Guy on a site I frequent is selling off a set of 18" Team Dynamics Pro Race 1.2s in silver that he's taken off his Fiat Coupe Turbo. They're shod in Toyo T1Rs with 7mm of tread on 2 of them and 4mm on the others.

    There's apparently slight inner tyre wear on the inside of one of them due to lowering and the alloys do have a few slight scuffs and kerb marks BUT, he's only asking £200 for them

    So the question is...should I take them off his hands and stick them on RGZ or do you's reckon they're too big or wouldn't suit?

    For reference, these are the alloys in question...

    buy buy buy!!!! they look sweet mate, and @ that price you couldnt go wrong.
    as long as the offset is between ET35 + ET 45 you'll be sweet. my 18's are ET 42 with no problems!

    The thick lip on them will make them look a bit smaller, but doest really matter on 18's. I dont think they will look bad at all.

    at £200 quid is cheap, and to be honest for that I would have a punt, if not just move them on later, just the price of new tyres would concern me. Oh yeah, and the possible detriment to performance.

    A crude photochop might be in order?

    Cheers all for the opinions, great help for sure. Especially the "rough" photoshop Dan

    They came off a Fiat Coupe as I said, so thinking they should go straight on. Had a look into the cost of the same tyre from Black Circles and it was £111 odd, which is a lot better than I thought.

    Think I'll make sure of the finances I do have first (though I could just up my overdraft again) and pop along and have a look. Unless they're gone already. If memory serves, they started at £350 odd and have been up since start of September. Maybe I could haggle some more off them

    Either way, I'll let you's know what I decide to do and if I get them, I'll obviously pop some pics up :)
