Put the Keis on today as the tyres on the 11 spokes were quite near to the wear bar, so swapped for the tyres more than the wheels. Got to say though, quite happy with the way it looks and I'll be leaving these on for a while.

Bit of steering wheel wobble at the moment but I think looking at the tyres that came off the tracking could've been a bit out, so I'll be in for a tracking and balance session during the week. Wish I'd got 205 45 tyres rather than 205 40's as they look a bit small on a car that's not been lowered. Never mind.

They look spot on with the mk2 hatch. Much better than the mk1.
Very nice!!!

Much prefer the mk2 alloys myself, they fill the arch as these look to sit inboard, probably the angle and profile giving the effect.

Personally prefered them on the mk1 but then im a fan of white alloys on the red. Sure once the springs have settled will look better :)

Like I said ... they'll do for a while.

I'm thinking of a white refurb for the 11 spokes, but then they need new tyres too.

The Keis would get sold if I was to get a decent offer, to pay for the refurb and new tyres for the standard wheels.

Those look really nice on you Zed mate :thumbsup:

I notices you got the XPower decals on I've been thinks to get from fleabay. How the quality of those?

Got me thinking of refurbing my standard 11 spoke ZS alloys in a color like that :)

The x-power centres did come from ebay and were only about £8 IIRC. They are good enough for me and since they've been on, have shown no signs of deterioration, albeit, they've not been on long.
