Does anyone have a thought on the optional 5 spoke wheels available at no extra cost in some markets?

If this link works they are shown here....

Oops, I'll try again

Optional alloys

 

I'm referring to the solid spoke 18" version Styling III

Sicc wheel you got there!

 

hey Finnish,

Great Wheels! I do have a question regarding the tires. I see that you got the the car's limitier removed w/ your v-max upgrade. Are the tires you got on rated to take the E55 load at high speeds? I thought the v-max should only be done with the special load tires from continental and dunlop? If they are indeed rated, I'm aching to change these continentals due to road whine at 12,000 miles.

Thanks

 

IMHO I like the stockers the best. 2/3 piece rims tend to weigh more than 1 piece. It's also harder to clean around the rim fasteners to get the wheel clean.

 

that's tight wheel bro...

 

Finnish, looks like you had the Styling III to start with, but upgraded to the wheels in the later shots, right?

Guess you didn't like the Styling III's much then!

 

hello the styling III rims are for my winter tyres and they're the original 18" factory rims. The AEZ 19" I have are for my summer tyres. They're 2-part rims and are actually lighter than the smaller Styling III rims.

Thanks for all input guys!

Ville: you have forgotten about me. Check your PM pls.

 

Special load-markings on the tyres seem to be all just crap. The 19" rims are equipped with pirelli p-zeros and handle well at very fast speeds and seem to be extremely good tyres in hard driving, though they wear fast.
