    Different spokes for different folks, hey?

    I would love a set of those (in white) on my RedZed. Either those or 16/18/20 spoke wheels, but I hate the A/M 5-spokes!

    OK, they're Yokohama Super Advan Racing ver.2

    Thanks guys :thumbsup:
    I've looked them up on a site. I'm looking at the 18inch section, and there are different measurements still e.g
    18 x 7.5, 18 x 8.5, etc. all the way to 18 x 10.0... what does the second figure represent?

    Cheers,
    Steve :cool:

    Wheel width.

    The bigger the number, the wider the tyre you can fit. Stop before you scrape the wheel arches.

    Just remember, that the wider the tyre, the lower the profile

    you will have to stay with, or the rolling radius will put your speedo out. Do a search on "tyres", "tyre size" or similar. There's plenty of info available here.
