Post Bronson New Wheels











Had them fitted a few days ago, they come with pin striping kit that you can get any colours, but opted not to have one.

2154517 front 2553518 rear. They are 8J rear and should really have 2453518's however 2453518's are alot more expensive, hence the 255's. Wheels look awesome. Just had new hood fitted, after the rear screen cracked.

the overall diamter of a 255/35r18 is 24.9 the 2154517 , 2453518 combo would have been a perfect match at 24.7overall diamter but your setup is not far off by much. The wheels are butt ugly though imo sorry.

Can't say I am much of a fan of those at all.

I thought it would be a bit bone crunching which is why i went a little wider on the rear, but to be honest it feels no different than before, the 16's had pretty much died i'd had them refurbished once before.

I originally wanted something OZ/BBS with lots of spokes studs & polished lip or lenso bsx's or similar, however i was unable to get a free set of these so stumbled opon the touge's they come 7x17 5x114 et48 and 8x18 5x114 et50, with optional foliatec pin striping kit's.



I work in the trade so wheels & tyres for me are free. The car was looking a little tired, but now with the new roof and wheels its like having a new car 11 years on. Maybe ill do a bit more to it, like caliper paint and lowering springs. Ill get a better camera and update the pics when i can.
