Default 18" Wheel package

Im looking at upgrading my rims and seeing as i need new tyres soon anyway i might as well up to 18s instead of stock 17's.

I really like the Rota Grid and also seen a few rims on Tempe Tyres which look simular, just checking if anyone new any good deals going which i should look into before paying over a grand for new Rotas and tyres...

thanks

Whatever you find on Tempe will probably be more expensive than Rotas to begin with, and a lot heavier.

Keep glued to gumtree, you might find a 2nd hand set you can pick up.

Curious as to how much you thought a new set of 18's with rubber would cost?

Alternatively if you want to save $200 you can buy some Ultrex rims from Rob @ www.ultrex.com.au

Then cheap out and buy crap tires.
