New Wheels And Brakes

[t-sport786]

Firstlyy im getting a new set of wheels would people reccomend 17's or 18's.....

The wheels im getting are the finichi rimini if you'v heard of them....these wheels expose the brakes quite abit so was wondering if theres a ways to replace the discs with a larger set so they look better on the front and rear?

Thanks.

You dont' need to get bigger brakes, just get the calipers painted a vivid colour and they'll look sweet!

Good choice of rims too!

cheers mate im thinking bout the finichi monza aswell what you fink of them?

[KPARRIS-JONES]

Personally, I think the whole range is sweet!

But go for the MONZA's as they are the mutz nutz by a long way!

A shame that you can't get Firenze in the right size :(

I think the Monza's are very nice, personally i would go 17's on 215/45's so there is a bit of rubber to absorb all the holes the roads have in them. 18's do look really good but the 35 profile tyres are to low for me.

Defo agree with you cabcurtains im not happy with my current tyres the ride has officialy become a bit uncomfortable will go for 205/45s next time and im on 17x7.5 rims

[t-sport786]

Farhan what tyres you running now? n u know ur 7.5 it doesnt !Removed! out at the front does it?

[farhanali89]

im running 205/40zr right now they sit flush with the arch at the fronts and look real nice. It depends on the offset of your wheels aswell.

Hmmmm i seee, what wheels would you reccomend the rimini or the monza?

What tyres are they like make..?

[farhanali89]

i have toyo tyres on my cts, will change them later tho as the grip is poor on them, dont think they are any top spec ones but they do the job.

I prefer the monza aswell the rimini are a bit to heavy looking the monza's in black look niceeee

[emsii]

17" with 50 tyre

18" with 40 tyre

19" with 35 tyre

Those are my recommendations.

mate id defo get the monza.. with centre spokes being the same as colour as the car.. it will look good!!!!

[farhanali89]

Yea kangzy youv done that gunmetal with silver dish, look real nice on your car! i was going to do black but from having black wheels it looked to dark like hub caps!

[t-sport786]

Ye i fink ill go for the monza's, u reckon the blacks will look like hub caps with my wheels aswell. a mate of mine was saying that too..hes got a type r n got the wheels sprayed black but thought the same thing and now hes gone for white n they gooodd loll.

You could go for white, it will have a proper JDM look but it depends on the wheels aswell. Black with a silver dish will not look like hub caps. I was going to do that originally black with silver dish but i could not find any wheels in my budget that i liked.

As long as there is some colour there on the black then they wont look like you have lost your hub caps!

Another thing to achieve that look, if you are going for all black wheels try and expose your brakes as much as possible. I had lots of thin spokes on my team dynamics wheels which really made the whole wheel area look far to black, If you have all black wheels with not a lot of spokes which expose your breaks then they will look real good. The monza's look really nice tho i would defo go for them over the other ones. They also have a silver dish wich will look sweet!

Its xmas today but will try getting in contact with a few companies 2mro or the day after to get them wheels in.... thanks for the advice.

I think ime need to change my discs soon... is there any options people would reccomend??

[Rez89]

if your going to get 17s i'd recommend 215/45/17 as they are alot better on the ride comfort, i first had 205/40/17 and it was not comfortable so i changed to the size above an to michellien pilot sport 2 tyres.
