Kennydies Posted December 11, 2006 Share Posted December 11, 2006 I need all four wheels refurbishing in various ways so was thinking of just buying new alloys. What do I need to know when buying new wheels as i presume you just cant go out and buy any old 18" wheels? Thanks, Ross Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gus Posted December 11, 2006 Share Posted December 11, 2006 You'll obviously need to ensure the new wheels have the correct stud pattern, ie 5*114.3. Then there is the whole question of offsets......try a search, there has been lots of discussions on this Gus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigphil Posted December 11, 2006 Share Posted December 11, 2006 the wheels come in 8.5 and 9.5 so you can have 8.5 all round or as in the photo 8.5 front and 9.5 rear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
