Sierra 18" alloy pictures

Would you post any pics of your sierra sapphire with 18" wheels.
I was given some oz 18" wheels that I refurbed white.
I put 18" TR1 proxies on.
Then as I am a mondi lad realized I hadn't checked if you can fit 18" wheels on a sapphire sierra,
If you any pics I would be pleased.

Depends on offset and standard or six degree beam andy but you can get 225s on, even without rolled arches. Mine are rolled and will be running 235/17 rears

The problem is good tyres for track was made in 225x40x18" or bigger sizes and the 225/40/18 in semislicks are bigger than normal 225/40/18 tyres.

All very good.
Least I can put mine on there 225 tr1 proxies.
I would not put 215 on.
AJC we finally catch up on the site.
I bought greys and a l8 with pf09.
When you coming for a brew.
Well it'll all happen this weekend and maybe a good excuse to put coilovers on.

The nearest to mine are the white saph on the picture before.
Mine are OZ with Proxies TR1 on.
The colour is white so I think they will look good.
I didn't get these done today but managed to get a new clutch cable on .
This will help next weekend.
Least I am mobile again.
All good keep em coming.

I'm going to order up a new set of tyres, it's got 215's all round ET35 with no rubbing anywhere. I really would prefer 225's, will I get away with them in the front?
