Default uk wheels for s2k staggered

Hi people ... My sk2 is looking great at the minute with a few mods and tune ups . However the only thong missing is a set of great wheels !

1: I am unable to find an U.K. websites that supply a staggered set of wheels for the car . I have been looking for quite some time now do any of you have any links or can point me in the right direction .

2: I am pretty sure I want 18's for the car ... Do you think this is best or should I get 17's ??

Thanks everyone

If you post this in the UK forum (Or the mods helpfully move it over) you'll get some sources.

(And you just missed out on some staggered BBS LM's in the for Sale Section!)

I think it would help if you tell us what you're looking for and what you want out of it.

I'd go for 17s but 18s aren't too bad if they're light enough but that means they'll be expensive.

Matty is selling a set of staggered 18s that will be a perfect fit with no body mods needed.

They are ok if the car is low enough I think, 18s with arch gap is a no no.

Like Glen says Matty has some 18" buddyclub wheels for sale tbat would fit nicely.

I personally think 17" look too small. 18" looks ideal. I also run a small arch gap so it looks even all the way round. Before people say, they don't ruin the handling or ride quality.
