Hello, to all fellow silverstone owners

What is the best set of wheels to put on our cars????

I am sick of my stock AP1 16" wheels, way to basic and they do not stand out much to me anymore

I have recently painted my brake calipers red

to match my interior not that this should effect what wheels i buy !

Any pictures more than welcome ! i am still undecided if i want 17" or 18" but im sure i will work that out with a bit of advice!

Thank you in advance for your help !

Far too subjective a question, especially without a purpose, hellaflush, or track?

My soul is from elsewhere, I’m sure of that, and I intend to end up there.

Gunmetal 18" CE28Ns are sexy on a silverstone...look up GrandMasterKhan in the members list, I think he's got pics of his car up:

I love my Ap2V1's too! Im planning on painting my wheels like a bronze color or gunmetal. Keep your stock wheels and get creative!

How does your set up handle? Have you ever tried the 225/255 ?

It's a purpose built auto-x car with the appropriate supporting modifications. The handling is fantastic.

I've never tried a 225 front tire and don't intend to. The 255 fits without much heart ache and provides more grip than a 225. I have tried 245s all the way around and the grip reduction was noticeable.
