Ultralite Wheels

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/18-755-Alloy-W...QQcmdZViewItem

Anyone on here running Ultralites?
These wheels are advertised as being capable of fitment to a skyline.
At 18x9.5" will these fit my R33 GTR? I quite fancy a set. If only they came a little wider

9.5X18 is fine for the R33 GTR.Nice looking wheels and i think they are pretty well made going by reviews i saw a while back.Decent price as well, get yourself some 265x35x18 tyres for about £95 each and you have a nice set up for around 1k total...Thought you were going gold though and not black...

Ahh just noticed its different size for front and back--dont bother if this is the case..

yeah but apparently they can do 9.5x18 all round

I was gonna go gold but it seems every frigging Le Mans has gold wheels. Plus i dont have enough for Top Secret edition TE37's yet but need rid of the stock rims till i have some more fundage. In the flesh the Champion Blue isnt as turquoisey looking as it seems in pics and is basically a non-metallic bayside blue kind of colour. I think black rims with polished lips, a carbon bonnet and carbon boot would look quite mean and moody on the Le Mans

edited to say...they do these in gold also

be careful where you buy them from. There is a guy called henry based in Gloucester and i have been told is a complete idiot. Be sure you know the correct size and fitment as this guys totally screwed up my mates rx7.

They look good - I'm doing up my three piece wheels in the same mirror rim & black spokes

I've just fitted a set of 18x9.5s et30 to my R32 and they fit really well - and the handling and grip is very good with a set of T1-Ss from Camskill at £120 each

Cheers

I currently have a set of ES-941 on my GTT and my old man had a set of the seven spokes put on his R33 GTR before he sold it, as he couldn't bare to get rid of his Volk's

them ultralites would look cool but if they're goin on a gtr i'd be sure to get 9.5j with a et20 all round, with that offset the width would be fine, ask the ebay guy if he can get them, they are available

check this site http://www.ultralitewheels.co.uk/WP-755.htm
