| Re: New wheels Look very nice Gilly. I recall Ant mentioning about those wheels during the momentary pause between haring around.

| Re: New wheels I don't want to put a downer on your new purchase, but...............................I actually prefer your old ones, sorry  . I have never been a fan of the Zenith alloys and even in 18" guise I think they look too small but that's just me I suppose!.

| Re: New wheels That's okay Steve, I like the look of the Zeniths, and I really wanted 17's so i'm happy. Cheezemonkhai - the old wheels will appear in the for sale section shortly - I have just finished cleaning them.

I have to disagree...I had the Vega wheels, and now I have he 18's Zenith. Much prefer those wheels to the Vega's! However I have to agree that they still look too small! I guess 18" are just too common these days... Most aftermarket ones are that size now! | |
