What wheels?
 
I've been looking for new wheels for my EC250 2007 model. I've been advised that wheels up to 2018 will work. It's probably shite advice and wheels are expensive. Not the sort of thing that I can waste 500 quid on to find they won't fit!
Can anyone categorically tell me what wheels will go on it and what will not please? 🙏
Finding a nice set from another 2007 is like finding the proverbial rocking horse shit. They are all overpriced and to be blunt, in shit state. Worse than what I've got on it already.
I've had mine powder coated to look pretty but the back rim is structurally unsound. It's not going to last long. A rear wheel rebuild is more expensive than buying a decent set of wheels for a 2018 model. Go figure? And then I'd have an unmatched set of wheels forcing me to pay through the teeth to get the front one rebuilt too. All in all, a bill of around 600 to 700 quid! There's some Talons on ebay for a 2016 for 350. Also a few sets of really nice 2018's OEM for around 300.
So some decent advice would be appreciated.
Thank you in advance,
Kind regards, Sam.

GasGas wheels are an oddity. Yes, '17 and older wheels will fit but the wheel spacers might be a little different. Of course, I would think you should be able to reuse your original spacers.
