a dish good enough to eat your dinner off, and a few minor (:sad2:) mods where required, to make the 8x16`s fit :laugh::laugh:.

I needed no arch mods on 8x13's ( or my arches were already modded when i got the car)... but they are a pretty high offset.. so sit in the arch

^yummmmmy^ make them fit ;)

I don't know the offset.. they are from a formula renault single seater and they come in 3 offests.. low, medium and high.. mine are high offset

Another wheel combo for you

7x14 ET35 front... ET25 back

8X13 with ET0 will probably hit your rear arches even with a 175/50/13 tyre.

Most other widths below 8 should be ok.

As for 15s i have a ET24 7x15 (165/50/15 tyre) and it clears everything.

[bye_all_c_ya]

im likeing the look of the ats classics
but they have a et 1 and 13" ? will i get these to fit a 5 ?

[TommyB]

I take it there 8x13s et1 - you will need to either grind or machine your calipers, run spacers and it will still hit your rear arch.

7x13 ATS come with et20 which will fit after you have ground or machined your calipers

And then theres the center bore, most ats come with a 57.1mm (vw center) where a renault is 60.1mm


Hope this helps mate, :agree:

i was going to buy a set of these rims off ebay.de
if im not mistaken there off the old twingo.

didnt buy them in the end as i found a set of 13x8 alleycat rallye specials :cool: proper old skool.

ive no idea if they will even fit the 5. i cant seem to find what offset they are? the only thing i know is that they need 20mm spacers for them to clear the calipers!!

they have had the centre bores machined so they do fit to the 5s hub. they where fitted to a 96 vw polo 6n when i bought them so the pcd is bang on too.

[markey b]

the ones on my scab are speedlines according the the back, and superlights according the the front of the wheel lol.

they are actually the same as the ones on the white turbo2 that was at nat day

well the project is getting there and i went for the euro look stretched 165/50/15 on 7 j rims which i dont think look to bad

[jantheeven]

That looks great mate! Loving it! :agree:
What's the make and type again?

[raj]

and got the tyres from black circle £39 each bridgestone :)

[raj]

can anyone recommend a place where they will machine the centre bore of alloy wheels?
im struggling to find anywhere!

[Adam L]

You'd probably need to find somewhere that can fit wheels on a laithe first. When I had a set of RSL Cults a few years back, it was a push getting 13's onto the ones at work.
