supersizejim Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 Hi I'm currently running 19" Jade R alloys, 8.5j front and 10j rears. There nice wheels in there own right, however I really really like the look of CCW's etc.. Also fancy a change so will be selling mine once I've made a decision on what to go for. Been speaking with JamieP and have come to the conclusion that its in my best interest to run an 18" with preferably a 10j - 11j rear, as rear grip seems to be a problem until 4th gear? The reason for the 18", should hopefully give me a little more depth in tyre wall height and hopefully a little more traction with that and a slightly wider wheel (if I can get one)! Any suggestions would be grateful, and links of where I can buy some would make me a happy man! I think that the inevitable is on the cards tho..CCW's Just wanna know if I can get something like that or similar ( Must have a lip ) for a little less money. Would also consider some five spokes. Thanks guys. Jimboy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamieP Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 (edited) XXR 521's come with a 10.5" rear wheel mate, nice looking set of wheels and only £600 a set iirc, I'm buying a set for the winter, keep my CCW's for summer. Edit, just looked and it seem they are a 10" rear. Edited June 19, 2014 by JamieP (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamieP Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 Yeah, but just looked, and seems they are 10" wide, not 10.5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jord Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 The 10j XXR 521 are also on sale right now on nlmotoring. I'm becoming a big fan of XXR wheels, I'll probably get some XX527s eventually. http://www.nlmotoring.com/XXR-521-Wheels-18x10-Gloss-Black-p/52180432n.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus my import tax was only £30 not sure how they did that but there you go, so if you do go for XXR's I highly recommend nlmotoring Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
