SOLD Style 18 Wheels 17"

[Tearoom]

I am on the look out for a set of 17" style 18 wheels, these were stock on some zeds and one of you may just have fancied a change at some point in the past and now have a set lurking around in the back of your garage.
So I am just putting a feeler out, to see what is out there.

I have some too but not staggered. PM me if interested.

Are they 16" or 17"? The non-staggered sets for a Z3 are usually 16" and the OP wants 17" - which are usually staggered.

Love the style 18's and have a pristine staggered set on my Z also.

Would love to match the Z3 7.5" front with a 9" rear (26mm offset) from the old e39 5 series...

The E34 also had them at 22mm offset but that might be just that bit too extreme...

Some day I'll find them...

Isn't strange how we are so different, you couldn't pay me enough to fit style 18s to my Z

Can't think what they look like TBH.

Quite often seen on pre-facelift Z3s.

No way... You just haven't seen them on the right car (or with big enough brakes... )

You see, thats where we all differ, IMO that Z as stunning as it is would look so much better with different wheels.

 

[mrscalex]

I think they can look great on a pre-facelift. But they look soooo wrong on a facelift.

Same as style 55 or 78 associated with facelift looking wrong on a pre-facelift.

Just my view

Yep quite agree, they are the standard upgrade of the day and they look just right.

I currently have a set of 16" style 42s on the zed and they are a nightmare to clean, I reckon the style 18s will only take half as long to polish. lol.
As mentioned before I have a pre facelift in Artic Silver which I think the style 18s will suit. The only issue is the staggered rear wheels on the narrow 1.9
I will hold on to my 42s as they are iconic

I have two sets of style 18’s . I also have a one owner Topaz 50k 3.0 Manual that came with them new.

Stop bragging Only just a bit jealous.

Oops sorry , I just meant It’s a facelift and a nice car and IMO it looks really nice with them on. It will be for sale in the spring if you’re interested Tony
Cheers

I can confirm mine are definitely 17" style 18 non staggered - let me know if you would be interested. Thanks.

What are the current tyre sizes? and do you know the wheel size as I've had 8j's on my car in the past and they were ok.

 

[Mario]

They are 17x7.5J ET41, PCD 5x120 the tyres on them are 225/45/17
