Simon350S Posted December 22, 2008 Report Share Posted December 22, 2008 I quite like the routes They were good for Julia Roberts and Sharon Stone god they were the perfect accessories wernt they Get some SE route rears for a little wider look or if you really can't stand them then take a look around here to some options. Also check out lotusespritworld.com for sale section as they have wheels sets pop up from time to time. Happy hunting Simon Quote Chunky Lover Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malc Holmes Posted December 22, 2008 Report Share Posted December 22, 2008 Got to agree with Simon, the OZ Route 16" rears look pretty good to me and suit the early Stephens shape realy well. Not keen on the S4 wheels at all. Everyone has different tastes though, so good luck in finding yourself something that fits the bill.

davegtst Posted December 22, 2008 Report Share Posted December 22, 2008 I much prefer the gt3 wheels to the oz route's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JASE_ESPRIT_TURBO Posted December 22, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 22, 2008 Dave, sell me those rears buddy they will do the job perfectly and I do like the deep dish Routes its just all mine are the same! Jase B) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davegtst Posted December 23, 2008 Report Share Posted December 23, 2008 I wasn't really planning on selling them but at the right price i guess i would. I would only sell them as a full set as the fronts wouldn't be much good to me on their own. How much would you give me for them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mangel Posted December 31, 2008 Report Share Posted December 31, 2008 Jase, I have a set of the S4 rims if your interested, they'll need a refurb but it just the paint thats knackered, not the rims themselves. drop me a PM if your interested.

Backmarker Posted December 31, 2008 Report Share Posted December 31, 2008 Also Adrian Heath (gasmangt3) is selling his GT3/S4 wheels. Drop him a PM, he's in Kidderminster.

Mark Blanchard Posted January 1, 2009 Report Share Posted January 1, 2009 (edited) I'll second the 16" deep dish Oz routes on the rear, much better. The standard rear Oz Routes look lame.

davegtst Posted January 2, 2009 Report Share Posted January 2, 2009 Remember if you get any later style wheels you will have to either get the front wheels machined or change the front hubs to the later ones. I had mine machined which cost about Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg Z Posted January 4, 2009 Report Share Posted January 4, 2009 I'll second the 16" deep dish Oz routes on the rear, much better. The standard rear Oz Routes look lame. Your paint man needs to go back and do something about those runs on the quarter where it meets the rear bumper.

Bibs Posted January 4, 2009 Report Share Posted January 4, 2009 I'd imagine it would be hard to track down the paint man after 21 years and a cloth would do, looks like a bit of muck to me!

Mark Blanchard Posted January 4, 2009 Report Share Posted January 4, 2009 Your paint man needs to go back and do something about those runs on the quarter where it meets the rear bumper. The previous owner scuffed the paint there (it's the worst bit of the car), so I used a Lotus touch-up pen to try and disguise it. I clearly didn't do a very good job though .

ricky Posted January 4, 2009 Report Share Posted January 4, 2009 I have a pair of SE rear wheels (the wider ones) in my garage. I've not seen them for a while but think they are good. I'm also thinking of changing the AWI's on my V8 for something else, but only if a can get a good offer. If interested in either let me know.
