aftermarket wheels thread

[Mence]

Bismark finally got a good scrub and her new wheels fitted today, I think they go well with the grey.

Sorry, forgot to mention, they are BBS CH (copies), 8J, ET42 fitted with 225/40-18 Goodyear F1s, no spacers.

The rears are fine with some spare space if you want to fit spacers but the fronts are tight, legal by about 5mm only.

I'm thinking of going for some 19" Audi RS6 wheels

I would have gone 19s but my local roads aren't to good in places and was a bit concerned about rim damage.

Do you mean inside is close or that the outer edge is close to it's limit?

PS Love the wheels.

Cheers.

Inside is fine, you get an extra 3mm of clearance there, it's the outer edge that's close.

I meant to say BBS SR 18" Himalaya satin grey, but can't find ET details etc.

[Mence]

Not any further details on the BBS website?

[Mence]

A bit of both I reckon. :(

Have a look at this

Finally ordered my new wheels today, will be getting the tyres to go with them next week and also the lowering springs fitted at the same time. Just got to let SWMBO know, although she might not notice the drop and just think the wheels fill the arches, well that's the plan anyway.

Finally got my new wheels on today, had to wait almost a month for the tyres (not quite as long as the car) but these were delayed further so ended up changing to another make.

Pictures to follow.

Wheels are BBS SV

8.5" x 19" ET47

Sorry they've gone on sideways, couldn't find how to fix them. Forgot to mention car has been lowered with H&R springs, but no spacers needed.

[M12MKD]

Very nice.......need to get them springs fitted to mine

[MyPug10G]

Ordered from www.dm-cartuning.de ( link found through a post on here) for 179.90 Euros with shipping to the UK at the time it was about £100.00 cheaper than buying from anyone in the UK so the money I saved payed for the fitting.

Sits perfectly that! Need to order my springs!!!
