Don't want 19's though! I would really like a style similar to the above but in 18's as you said. Rims are like 7kg each though...I want light. Not too fussed on fitment, 9" rears would be good but budget for rims is not high enough to shop new, and the 18" combo coming up in perfect nick would be rare.

I'm put off by the idea of more expensive tyres when I do 500km a week though...Have read a few sites and have allayed my fears of brittle heavy rims if I go Rotas. Plus the $1000 for the 17" SSRs is for rims that have been tracked, which is not gentle.Brand new 18x9.5 for $250ea if I buy Rotas. Weights aren't too bad either, 10KG or so but need to find specific stats on designs I like.Christ that was a bad idea, now almost 3am. So much reading on fitment threads and scrolling through tyres. Then I find the set and colour of Rotas that I want is only available in 18x9.5 +20 which would not fit the fronts at all from what I read (I think).

Never thought of that happening, only of the bunching up. Wonder if some tyres are better at staying put on the rim than others? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
