works brilliantly now very happy - hopefully selling one of my drones at lunchtime so that will cover the cost of the wheels

Well done on the seat looms Liam. I've got a loom Stan made that I bought off another member on here, so I might be politely calling on your knowledge once I get round to fitting it.

paid a visit to east coast alloys this evening after work and might be calling back to them tomorrow to make a purchase
heres some of what they had in stock
had my mind almost set on a set of dark silver pretoria reps but they no longer do that colour so im now looking at maybe getting the pretorias in hyper silver as per pic below
some of them looked nice in the shop but didnt look well up against the van
these first ones are an example of something that looked better in the shop
im looking to get 18s no bigger than that and he had helios and a set of veemans in 19s that were tempting
these next ones are the new TTRS wheels
quite nice but i dont think they would suit my silver van
and now for the hyper silver pretorias
opinions welcome

Pretorias look the best in my opinion

Helios always look good on a caddy. Silver Pretoria’s look nice too. I bet you’ll be wanting a brake upgrade after fitting them though as they’re quite open and will show the brakes off.
Why have you chosen to go for 18’s rather than 19’s?

You won’t feel any real difference between 19” with 35 profile tyres and 18”s with 40’s mate. Especially if you’re only lowering with springs rather than coilovers. It’ll save you changing the 18’s for 19’s in a few months when you realise the 18’s don’t look big enough too. Ain’t that right Ryan
