    ZU 18" Rims

    I was out at Rovacraft today and they said ZU Rims have released 18"Rims for the D3, D4 & RRS.

    Their blurb said that they will fit all of the above models except those with Brembo brakes i.e. supercharged models.

    Rovacraft are following up for me - they have indicated a price of approx $350.00.

    Will let you know the follow up.

    Cheers

    Chuck

    I liked the look of them, with their higher weight carrying and bigger spoke gaps.
    They don't fit the D4 3 litre.....well my MY12 anyway. The front wheel would not rotate.
    Tried them in WA. They were the same price as GOE rims here in WA.
    Gordon from GOE is the only one that offers 18 inch Rims for the 3 litre.

    Thats a pity.
    How long ago did you try?

    I saw the brochure a Rovacraft and it said they would fit.

    Cheers

    Sorry mate.
    They may be different now, but unlikely. They said that they would fit....but they didn't.
    Now I have my GOE rims I am very happy.....supporting a guy and business that supports our passion.

    I also like Gordons rims however if the Zu rims fitted I could have bought 1 or two at a time and not have to pay freight & paid a bit less.

    Cheers

    Hi Chuck,

    You don't have to order a set - you can order a couple at a time if you want. Makes no difference to the freight.

    Cheers,

    Gordon

    The GOE rims are perfect.
    And for a 2012 D4 3 L.
    They work.
    Go for them......

    Gordon stuck his neck out with the development of this version of the rim when no-one in the UK with good access to the manufacturer would look at the possibility.
