One of my fave wheels! I've found prices can vary massively, from £400+ a set to £80 depending on the condition and how much the seller thinks they're worth... I picked up my Fondmetal multispoke 16's for £42, with tyres, off the bay  . I later saw another set on there going for £200 and still rising! I don't know whether anyone did replica jobbies - they could be cheaper. Would look great on the 190 I agree!!!  |

Looks like I've just bagged my mates set for £100, rear tyres are in need of replacment though.
Might put the fronts on the rear and get some lower profile rubber for the fronts, hot rod merc styliee.
it's wierd, the car goes like stink now, and all I've done is drive it, suppose I'm used to the taller gearing now, or maybe I just thrashed some krud out of the system.

Ha, that's what I've done - put 215/40/16's on the front and 225/55/16's on the back! It's pretty effective at getting a rake. Parking is...erm...interesting with 215's and no power steering  . Who needs a gym?! ;D |

Try... www.eunos.com/tirecalc/The 215/40/16's are WAY smaller than my original rolling radius, but the 225/55's are more or less the same as the old 'uns - 3% out or something. The way I figure it is the speedo reads off the gearbox which is attached to the rear wheels - the front ones just do more rotations to "keep up" as it were.... I tried explaining this to the tyre guy but he didn't seem convinced  I've tried it through the jungle of speed traps though and I've been fine. |
