Default Best Place to Buy Alloy Wheels?

Hi everyone,

Im new here, but have gathered that the S2K is hard to get wheels for due to its wheel dimensions. Just wondered from your experience, where the best place is to buy after market alloy wheels either internet or a shop (near yorkshire If poss) . Any info will be appreciated.

18" usually opens a can of worms.



Though these are two of the best set ups for the S (pasted from my sig thread)
Note the ET numbers (offset)

17" Volks Gunmetal CE28N's (Front-17x7.5 ET+50, Rear-17x9.0 ET+63) & Goodyear F1 GSD3 (Front-225/45ZR17, Rear-255/40ZR17)

18" Racing Hart CP035R's ((Front-18x7.5 ET+51, Rear-18x8.5 ET+61) & Goodyear F1 GSD3 (Front-225/40ZR18, Rear-255/35ZR18)
