Havard Posted August 4, 2010 Share Posted August 4, 2010 My car arrives next month and I am already thinking about swapping the wheels, although I will judge them when it arrives. Can anyone do me a picture of my car with these wheels? http://img829.imageshack.us/img829/3894/newsupewheels.jpg http://img804.imageshack.us/img804/3820/gravis1.jpg I just want to get an idea of how it will look. Also the wheels are 5Zigen Gravis1. Does anyone know if they will clear uk brakes. I would imagine at 19" they would? The offset is 38 I think. I need to someone to teach me about offsets and associated stuff. Cheers H. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirk Posted August 4, 2010 Share Posted August 4, 2010 Thats a very nice looking wheel you picked out there... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt H Posted August 4, 2010 Share Posted August 4, 2010 I think the wheels it has on really suit it. They have a lip which those 5Zjgen don't. I think that makes a big difference on supras. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ellis Posted August 4, 2010 Share Posted August 4, 2010 Best colour!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Posted August 4, 2010 Share Posted August 4, 2010 The pic isn't really a good enough resolution to have the wheels looking good. By the time I shrunk the wheels enough to go on there, they looked crap lol. And.... di didlaee, di didlaee, di didlaee dee dee. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobD Posted August 4, 2010 Share Posted August 4, 2010 Really nice car H! I might be interested in the wheels on it if you sell depending on price! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Havard Posted August 4, 2010 Author Share Posted August 4, 2010 Really nice car H! I might be interested in the wheels on it if you sell depending on price! We'll see how things are when they get here. The seats will probably be the furst things to go as I want leather. I may just get the Brides recovered though....

You're right though, it does look crap.... I have seen some 5 spokes with gun metal centres, may have a look at them. Just seen oin the 5Zigen website that the Gravis are due to be discontinued...!! http://5zigenusa.com/english/products/wheel/5zigen/gravis-1.html H.

RobD Posted August 4, 2010 Share Posted August 4, 2010 You should get some Jade R's on there, ellis's gunmetal looks so nice with them! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndrewOW Posted August 4, 2010 Share Posted August 4, 2010 I do like a good 6 spoke. Good choice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My best mate Ste D has just put Jade R's on his and I love Ellis' car. I wouldn't want to be accused of copying.... I do like a good 6 spoke. Good choice. I am open to suggestions of which wheels would look good on a Gunmetal car too.....thanks..!! H. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Posted August 4, 2010 Share Posted August 4, 2010 TE37/ROTA GTR's both look great on a gunmetal car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndrewOW Posted August 4, 2010 Share Posted August 4, 2010 I'm just using this gunmetal car with my wheels on it, if I ever decide to get mine resprayed that colour. I think they look excellent, especially that mine are black with the diamond cut. Carry on... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hoff Posted August 4, 2010 Share Posted August 4, 2010 You know me H, I like dished multi spokes. But they do look very nice going by the Photoshop:) I think a silver wheel like these would be best suited to gun metal IMO. Are you definately going for 18's, or were you just thinking of the UK brakes? Its the offset that will have the major factor on if the clear or not. By the way, she looks an absoloute stunner:cool: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoff Posted August 4, 2010 Share Posted August 4, 2010 How about these Rotas, Paul? Volk CE28 copies. http://whifbitzperformancetuning.co.uk/honda-civic-wheels-rota-p-2100.html Maybe if you're struggling to find something PM Mr Whiffin with your budget and a description of what you're after. Are you open to any style at the moment? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you open to any style at the moment? Hi Adam, I really like 6 spokers or possilby 5 spokers. I want something that is nice but easy to clean..... Been looking at the TE37's that ScottM put up. Where would be the best place to get them from? H. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoff Posted August 4, 2010 Share Posted August 4, 2010 They are gorgeous mate. Someone should phtoshop the Bronze ones onto your supe mate. Custom colours on Volks too if you wanted. Also love their RE30 wheels! Try Paul, Jurgen and Ibrar 1st mate. Unit 8 in Lancashireare a Volk dealer I believe http://www.unit-8.co.uk/acatalog/Evo_Wheels.html and also Co-ordsport. Here's a link to their web shop (part box) http://www.part-box.com/alloy-wheels-tyres-rays-wheels-c-81_715.html Both Unit 8 and especially Co-ordSport are quite well know companies.
