If the widths are 7&8" I'd put 195/50/16 and 225/45/17 to try and avoid ABS issues and the 195 fronts drive nicer to me.

I've got Toyo R1Rs I'll want to use on the rear but they don't do a 195 for the front. What's the consensus, go 205 to match tyres, or pick something available in 195 (and if so any recommendations?)

My VXR currently has R1R as follows 225/45r17 205/45r16 Works just fine. 888r will be going on track wheels. Same size rear. 195/50r16 will be the front.

Little update due everyone: The wheels are: Front - 7x16 ET25 Rear - 8x17 ET33 For your information while were in touch, regarding the delivery schedule from Speedline in Italy, I can confirm that everything is more or less going to plan. They are scheduled for casting sometime this week (WK 28), they then have to undergo QC checks, they will then be machined (more QC), painted (last QC) packed and shipped. Presuming that all goes as it should, nothing unforeseen occurs during any of the processes or QCs, there is available space on the transport etc etc, then I would say that I will have an ETA to our UK warehouse Week 32/WK33. So, all in all, not too long to wait now J Matthew Davies

I've AD08R on my Speedlines in 205/45/16 and 225/45/17. Work fine for me.

is it possible to get in on this now or has the moment passed to get on it?

Does that mean it's too late?

Nope, he's at #28.. 👍

[TheRealVXed]

There is one set remaining after mine, however Matthew is talking to someone on them and waiting for them to decide, so there may be a further set available, but I got the penultimate ones

update - small delay

 

 

 

I have received this week an updated production/delivery schedule from the factory in Italy.

Disappointingly, the ETD to the UK for the VXR wheels has been pushed back to WK37, which is week commencing 11th September.

I know that we were all aware that the delivery schedule was, and always has been, an ETD, and that there may be unforeseen circumstances which could push the ETD back, however, we appreciate that this is rather annoying for us all.

I realise that the original projected ETD is still a couple of weeks away, but there seemed little point in holding back this information, we want to be as upfront and open with you guys as we possibly can be.

If you could post this onto the VX220 forum for us it would be greatly appreciated, we will push the factory for the earliest ETD, but at the moment, I don’t expect them to be able to improve on week commencing 11th September.

Please accept our apologies for the delay.

If anyone will have their old silver TD Pro Race 1.2 wheels for sale after this, please can you contact me, as I'm after some.

 

If you could let me know now that would be good for my planning.

 

Thx.

Like Nev above, if anyone is thinking of selling some silver ATS please give me a shout 👍 Cheers, Jon

update:  wheels have been cast, machining next, then paint and finally shipping to UK

 

 

 

We have today received our updated production/delivery schedule from the factory in Italy following their Summer Break.

 

Disappointingly, the ETD to the UK for the VXR wheels has been pushed back to WK39, which is week commencing 25^th September.

 

I know that we have already had the delivery schedule delayed, however we can see from this schedule that the castings have been shipped into the machining facility and have been allocated a time slot for machining/drilling. After this process has been completed and the wheels have passed QC, the next process is painting, final QC, packing and then shipping.

 

Although this is disappointing for us all, we can now see a firm production schedule in place, and we are happy that barring any unforeseen circumstances, shipment out will be during WK39.

 

If you could post this onto the VX220 forum for us it would be greatly appreciated.

 

Please accept our apologies for the delay.

Thanks Vocky

Any updates Vocky?

 

Cheers!

[vocky]

The wheels will hopefully be delivered to Speedline UK next week, I have not heard any more from them to indicate otherwise.
