UNABASHED Posted January 16, 2010 Author Posted January 16, 2010 I'd worry about the quality of brand new rims that cost only £569 in correct sizes its closer to £700 I think. although the thought has already crossed my mind... Quote
Sarnie Posted January 16, 2010 Posted January 16, 2010 Thats pretty normal, some people go 9j + 10j or 9.5j +10.5j etc etc which means you would need wider tyres potentially.... My Volks were 8.5j & 9.5j +21 offset And 245/35 285/35 tyres Quote

UNABASHED Posted January 21, 2010 Author Posted January 21, 2010 ok, I don't know all the wheel traders on here so thought I ask to them all. I've found a couple of places that stock the Fuel 5's in 19's and want to check with the traders on here if any of them stock them also... so if you stock them please let me know Quote
UNABASHED Posted February 3, 2010 Author Posted February 3, 2010 do these sizes sound good: 8.5x19" Front 10x19" Rear Fuel 5 Wider Rears Alloy Wheels. Fitments available 5x114 et25, 5x114 et38. Fittings supplied. they're at a good price so if fitting spec's are good I might just go for it Quote
UNABASHED Posted February 3, 2010 Author Posted February 3, 2010 look the same though I'm not sure what size's yours are? Quote
fakeindian Posted February 3, 2010 Posted February 3, 2010 look the same though I'm not sure what size's yours are? 19's 275 on the back 245 on the front, not sure of the of sets i keep meaning to look at them i'll take them off this weekend and have a look as far as i'm aware i don't think they make them anymore but Mania make some that look very similar: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Set-of-4-Mania-Al ... 500wt_1182 Well kinda Quote
UNABASHED Posted February 3, 2010 Author Posted February 3, 2010 are you running them with spacers? Quote
fakeindian Posted February 3, 2010 Posted February 3, 2010 are you running them with spacers? yeah i had 5mm spacers on but it wasn't right so f**ked them off and put 15mm spacers on front and back. Quote
MITZ@CougarStore Posted February 3, 2010 Posted February 3, 2010 are you running them with spacers? Neil is running 15mm spacers front and rear, we fitted them on Saturday for him… Quote
fakeindian Posted February 3, 2010 Posted February 3, 2010 Dude what about these they are on a clearance sale http://www.wheel-base.co.uk/proddetail. ... d=ACE132SP Quote
UNABASHED Posted February 3, 2010 Author Posted February 3, 2010 are you running them with spacers? Neil is running 15mm spacers front and rear, we fitted them on Saturday for him… Do you happen to know what offset his wheels were and what tyre sizes were needed? Dude what about these they are on a clearance sale http://www.wheel-base.co.uk/proddetail. ... d=ACE132SP not a fan of those, the spokes look too thin. Every time I fall for a set of wheels they stop producing them! Quote
