I will be needing some alloy wheels later on, any suggestions. When i bought the car it only came with a set of steel rims with wintertyres. I see that there are some 17" to fit the car on ebay. I have been looking at some from DP motor in the uk. Any suggestions and experience regarding wheels are welcomed. |

Anyone having some comments regarding wheeels and tyres. I am looking at Speedline Turini alloys and tyres. I am thinking of running 16" and 205-45-16 or even 195-50-16, rather then 17" 205-40-17. I want some rubber between the wheels and the road to maintaine good road performance. I have even not driven the car without winter tyres so if you have any suggestions what to choose i will apriciate some feedback. |

205/45R16 is the perfect size for the ZX. Rimms are difficult to choose, I would say go lightweight. Oz ultra leggera/Team Dynamic Pro Race |
