Aftermarket alloys

[NickZT]

Any one fitted a decent set of aftermarket alloy's.. Nice looking wheels are hard to find in a high offset for our cars.

Been on the look out for a set of apex alloys. but they are like hen's teeth.

Found these Team Dynamics Equinox 18" alloys on line with a 45mm offset. So should just about fit over those massive front callipers.

Womble has some team dynamic wheels.

Have you checked rimmerbrothers? I thought you could buy a new set of apexs for about 400 quid.

Local X-Part dealer SMG Rover Bristol quoted me £219. each.

I will contact Rimmerbrothers. But that sounds to good to be true at only £100. each.

It won't be everyones choice but we have these on our ZT-T, have just bought a V8 version so may swap them over..

I like those, Martin.
Personally, I have been looking for some 19" rims with 5 or 6 spokes, black/graphite centre and spokes with silver rim. A bit like the Bullitt wheels or Porsche's old cookie cutters. I haven't found any yet though. I think I will probably go for a wider rear.

Is the offset of 50 mm and 5 studs the only information I need to be sure they fit?
