New 19 inch wheels for the ZT-T
Picked up some new wheels for the ZT-T today to replace the 11 spokes. These are a set of 19inch Audi RS6 Reps. Need a bit of a refurb which I'll do at some point. Think they suit it quite well, will look even better once the side skirts and rear bumper pods are on I recon. Now to find some centre caps that fit these, shame the original ones are missing.

I'm liking them
Seem to fill the arches better with the bigger spokes. I take it the ride and handling haven't changed? Stan

Took it for a run and the ride is a tiny bit harsher as would be expected due to the drop from 45 to 35 profile tyres. These tyres have quite a lot of tread on them at the moment so will be leaving them as they are, but once it's time to change them I think I will go for 235/40/19 tyres, as I know of others who run 19 inch wheels with this size tyres fitted with good results, stops the ride being too harsh, fills the arches a bit better and has a very minimal affect on the speedometer as well.

Look very nice indeed, do Audi wheels go straight on then? no problems with spigot bore size etc? I've toyed with the idea of fitting TT wheels to my 75 cdt but maybe painting them in anthracite.

Shows we all have differing tastes
I think they don't suit the car all all .

They look like oversized Mirage wheels, sorry but it's another no from me I'm afraid.
