Nice!
Not sure on the yellow line but will match the brakes! Good for track wheels!:beer:

This is all the rage at moment and to be honest I like it.....yellow calipers, black car...:thumbs: Don't think it will work on SG though.

I like them, it's good to try something new and to be a bit different.
Look forward to seeing them on the car.

They do need yellow calipers and a black car to work, but I like them.

Nords what are these rubbers? Ive got the same 18" wheel for track. Just in need for tyres, any good plus ££?

£155 a corner on special offer at Camskill. They are close to cups in performance, but noisy on the road. Same wet weather dramas as cups or R888 etc.
265/35 ZR 18s all round!

Thats the route that i would like to go, standard M3 alloys so i can fit semi-sicks and full slicks as required.
Do you have any rubbing issues? And what about the front wheel width? I wouldnt have thought they were wide enough for 265 tires??
Nords
15-03-2009, 12:11 PM
I'll have to find where that other thread is because someone else asked the same question. No dramas with rubbing and the car is a bit lower due to being on Intrax. Those pictures are after Donington (and after being used before by the previous owner) although I drove up there on CSL alloys and swapped over in the pits, so no manoeuvring on them as such.
Got to be worth a try as std 18" alloys are cheap...
PS Sorry for the Hijack, get those black CSL alloys up soon!
PPS Here we go, probably best to continue the tyre talk on here: http://www.cslregister.com/forum/showthread.php?t=1413 or Donny thread: http://www.cslregister.com/forum/showthread.php?t=1370

I think matt black spray paint with added dirt & dust??? I'll check with the guy who did them but as trackday wheels, they have just been 'chucked on'...

I put something on these on a thread on here, but can't remember where...
Can anyone confirm the recommended tyre size for 18" front and rear? looking at dunlop DZ 02G. I see Nords is running 265 all round on rears (9J) but what is recommended for front 18 (8J)? 235 or will 265 all round fit? Camskill wont quote for comeback purposes.

Just found out from Camskill these have been phased out. only one in stock.:banghead:

Shame, mine haven't got that much life left! Perhaps R888 will have to replace them?...
