KeithS Posted November 5, 2008 Report Share Posted November 5, 2008 Should i get them??? Popped into local tyre and wheel shop today just to see what he had! Ask what price he could do on 19" Csl's.. All in 19" 8.5j allround fitted with Falkens 452's 235/35 on the front and 265/30 on the rear with offset of 37 for the grand sum of £1070 fitted!! If i ordered them today/tomorrow i could have them fitted and ready to show off on saturday at Bluewater Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simonlpearce Posted November 5, 2008 Report Share Posted November 5, 2008 Go for it mate, will make a massive difference to your car! Am in the process of ordering some new rims myself, although they wont be going on until the new year as the car will be off the road.....

DonB Posted November 5, 2008 Report Share Posted November 5, 2008 Sounds very expensive for non staggered CSL reps, but the tyres are fairly wide on the rear, that might be pushing the price up. You could get a staggered set of 19" LM Reps with a stepped lip for that money, like these Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There cheaper than most places plus they have good rubber not budget that other come with as standard! Thanks for the link but not my cup of tea!!

simonlpearce Posted November 5, 2008 Report Share Posted November 5, 2008 Not a massive fan of the LM's myself TBH. I think they really suit some cars especially the old Golfs, but on larger cars with larger wheels something just doesnt quite look right IMO.

Jay. Posted November 5, 2008 Report Share Posted November 5, 2008 i got this package but with Fullrun tyres and the non staggered, they were £700 and i think he said i could have them with falken 452's for 900, but in 235/35/19. so with the wider rear tyres fitted, its not a bad price really, they are a very attractive rim, go for it mate!

I know what you mean about the 265's on 8.5's the guy tried all his supplies but none did staggered! He did say they would be fine! I could get a pair of 8j and a pair of 8.5j but from different suppliers but risk having a colour difference.. Im very tempted to go for 8.5j i know they will be top quality with a good guarantee in case of any prob's, have used the guy before very helpful and has a great rep!!

chris Posted November 5, 2008 Report Share Posted November 5, 2008 If you are willing to pay that, then take another £100 and get the Velocity staggered ones I love mine all the same, but then i did not want to spend £1200 on wheels, and i have no need for 265 rears Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chris Posted November 5, 2008 Report Share Posted November 5, 2008 Mine are 19's with 235/35 all round. And got them from a forum member Velocity wheels do look good though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deezer-D Posted November 5, 2008 Report Share Posted November 5, 2008 Go for the staggered Velocity ones from M Style, more aggressive dish on the rears. Had non-staggered 18's on mine when I got it and hated them. I'm now torn between 19" staggered Velocity or 19" LM staggered (reps, real thing too bloody dear).

DaveDunlop Posted November 5, 2008 Report Share Posted November 5, 2008 i prefer the non staggered myself, and the price difference is amazing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Know what you mean Dave about the non staggered, the lines look smoother.. Going to make a few more calls tomorrow to see if i can get a better price! Could get them off eday but not sure what the quality will be!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stu Posted November 5, 2008 Report Share Posted November 5, 2008 Staggered for me as well, love the deeper dish on the back. Seriously considering getting some CSL wheels and a drop! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daz 330 Cs Posted November 5, 2008 Report Share Posted November 5, 2008 Yes staggered for me too , car looks fatter from the back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ss107 Posted November 5, 2008 Report Share Posted November 5, 2008 I got my CSL reps on Monday! Look awesome I went for 19" 8.5 all round for 760 delivered (budget tyres). Though, for £1000 delivered I could have had the same with the Falken tyres. Theyre great quality and would def recommend Bought them at http://www.replicaalloywheels.co.uk/ They price match too!

DaveDunlop Posted November 5, 2008 Report Share Posted November 5, 2008 a friend of mine bought some 19" 8.5j off ebay and are superb quality and where about £350 delivered. he then got top end tyres from www.mytyres.com and paid like £800 for the lot. they look so sweet on his black saloon aswel. altho i think gunmetal wouldve looked better.

///Marty Posted November 6, 2008 Report Share Posted November 6, 2008 a 265 sounds a bit wide to me on an 8.5 , might look a bit ballooney if you get me ? Depends on they tyre Dynamic... Falkens have quite a rounded shoulder in comparison to other makes. Generally you can get away with going one size wider on a falken tyre and the extra width just makes it look like any other tyre. a friend of mine bought some 19" 8.5j off ebay and are superb quality and where about £350 delivered. he then got top end tyres from www.mytyres.com and paid like £800 for the lot. they look so sweet on his black saloon aswel. altho i think gunmetal wouldve looked better. Your mate got a very good deal there dude. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
