Thanks David, appreciate you taking the time to drop me some pics. Of the 2 i prefer the OZs both from a quailty of finish and they fact they're maybe a little less common than the TDs. I already own the most common wheel ever fitted to a Clio in the Turinis so would prefer something a little...

They are a JDM wheel but im not so offended by that. I even looked to see if i could find some SW388 / Desmond Regamasters, i think they would be the ultimate if you find some. Rays/Volk dont make anything i like in small sizes. Many of them lose the beauty of the rim or change the design when...

Thanks David. Can you feel the difference between the two in the steering?

N2graffix on eBay do them if you drop em an email. 🙂

4 tyres fitted for a score!! FML im moving up Norf!

They require a minimum order on further colours from what I’ve seen Zach. I don’t think I like them enough to buy them anyway.

Granted as you say they have wheels in plentiful supply. But my point being that if they were that susceptible to bending then they would be bending them every few laps on the circuits with high curbs. TDs aren’t exactly heavy but not exactly light either. I genuinely appreciate the input guys...

I’ll do some digging. Perhaps a price a forged set and see what they come in at. Never seen a bent TD myself so is that genuine or is that internet BS? Most of the BTCC grid use TDs and they’re launching off the kerbs of Knockhill for 30 min at a time and you don’t see them pulling in with bent...

Jokes aside, is it common for people to be bending them as I’ve never in 20 years of driving bent an alloy wheel on road or track.

There’s more than enough high end cars running Ultras for track use for this not to concern me. Rather replace a bent Ultra that feel the effect of an unbroken 2118. Unless you go for forged rims but they’re still bendable.

I don’t wanna be smashing anything except my Mrs mate. 😅

15s. Purely weight, tyre price and clearance. My winters are a set of 16” Cup Turinis with PS3s on. I love the 2118s on it, but can’t deal with how they feel anymore.

The other spanner in the works is probably my favourite of them all at the mo and that’s the OZ Alleggerita but 16” only and 5.8kg Ultraleggera RPF1 TC105N X3MA - (White only)

Well I’ll notice an improvement from the 2118s regardless in that respect. But I went from 18x8 Turinis on my Impreza which were already light at 9.5kg a corner to a set of Volk CE28N which are 7kg a corner and the difference in steering was profound. That’s a 27% drop in weight. Potentially...

Love the look of those but at 6.5kg they’re already 1.5kg heavier than they need to be.

Certainly leaning that way at the minute chap. Easy to source and readily available. I’ve currently looked at the following in 15x7. OZ quote 4.99kg for a 15x7 Ultraleggera rim and sensible money at £170 a corner. ATS DTC are nice but they’re £190 a corner and heavier at 5.8kg Enkei RPF1 are...

Yeah they’re prettier than the ultraleggera imo but no longer made. So you’re back to the fact of buying used and getting them refinished which then puts you in the price of a new set which is frustrating. Ultraleggeras, RPF1s, Konig Hypergram are a few I’m looking at. In my mind, if I’m...

Exactly what I did Ash. Pop the 2 plastic trim clips and pull it back slightly. Little 10mm offset ratchet spanner gets straight on the 2 fixings and it comes right out. Only replaced it as it came up cheap and I’m a magpie for new stuff as you know. 😅

Turinis are staying for wet/winter use. It’s the weight of the 2118s I’m struggling with.

It’s the road version and the BTM is 1.6kg lighter. Probably offset by the 500kg bracket that holds the BTM up so well. 😂

Really? What makes you say that Rob? They’re very similar in design.

So nothing much happening on WZD lately, just waiting on a few odds and ends. Sold the Orbisoud which has now gone to a new home and temporarily put my BTM system back on. It’s remarkable how good condition it’s in and the quality of it has really shown. Since I knew it’s fitment was temporary...

Fit all 4 :)

Great job there Chris. Looks fantastic :)

So then Andy... in a level of 1-10... just how much swearing went on? :D

Competition wheels are run without centre caps. Can you not just remove them for Trackdays and refit when you go home?

Everyone’s getting back on the sun strips. Looking good Louis. 🙂👌🏼

Turinis all day mate. Do Wales and get them freshened up for next year. 🙂

Alex is superb. He wont steer you wrong.
