Yep, those. I love them but not sure how they'd suit a Zed, hence the question. It's not looking likely though. :lol:

In my opinion to work you need quite a flat/square car e.g. mk1 golf. The Z has such rounded edges the best way to go is for a staggered setup with more dish at the rear to complement the flared arches.

e.g.

and

Just my opinion though!

Personally, I think they would look awful on the Zed, but quite good on the Sweeney's Granada :lol:

Nice wheel but on a MK1, 2 OR 3 VW Golf. Or most older VWs, like a 'rocco or Jetta. They don't suit a Zed IMO
