BERKSHIREVRS

Thanks, that's really useful to know.

That's great, thanks Mark.

The Dorado alloys are: Rim dimension 7,5J x 17“ ET 49 Would the offset be very different to the 19" extremes?

Thanks. That's where is gets a bit confusing to me, if it's a 7.5 alloy and that takes a 225, would that mean the offset would be the same?

Thanks, I think that's how I'll go, If they aren't for me, then I'll sell them on.

I agree they do look good.

Thanks very much. Okay great, all looking good for some winters 🙂

Thanks Kenny. That's really helpful. For reference do you know if the calipers a similar size?

Okay great, thanks. It soudn Thanks so much, that's really useful to know.

I'm not sure how accurate it is but the compatability checker from a firm selling them on Ebay say that they are compatible with the 2017 but not the 2018? Not sure how accurate that is mind?

Also presumably there is no difference on the calipers between the one you have and the 2018 VRS estate? Thanks again.

Thanks flybynite, that's very handy to know. How do you find the difference in ride and did you need the low profile balancing weights?

Thanks Matt, and no offence taken. I love the car already, I just drive on some pretty bad roads and do a fair few miles, it's not so much the ride, although I'm still getting used to to the firmness, but the idea of fairly regularly getting flats from potholes etc on our wonderful roads. If i could find some decent 17" wheels that definitely fit and might give more protection that would be ideal.

I'd be really interested to find a set of alloys that definitely fit/clear the calipers.. I take it most are very close and at best require slim weights.

Thanks Mark, not too far from you. From the other posts it sounds like 18's wont make too much difference but I appreciate the offer. Might be interesting to see the difference all the same 🙂
