Alloy wheels.

[JW.CupraT]

Hi there. I currently have a seat leon cupra T with 17" star fish alloys. I have been searching for some new alloys for my car and was wondering if the wheels below would look good on my leon or if anyone has them already on their car?

What size are they?
I've got a similar styled 17" Audi wheel and they go ok.
It will help if the car is lowered, or has the full R skirts.
Mine does nt and is a little "Range Rover".

The wheels are 18" with a 40ET. Just wondered if they would look ok

 

[RDS1972]

I think they'll look pretty cool, never seen them fitted to a Leon before so different is always good.

 

[JW.CupraT]

Cheers bud. Just checked your car and those alloys are looking good. These do look kinda the same. I just cant make my mind up. I have also seen a set of audi tt comps too.

 

[JW.CupraT]

Another question guys. Just seen some more alloys. "Rim size 8J x 17H2ET48" would they fit well? it was worried about the ET being 48, would i need spacers?

I don't think they suit the Leon, but I'm ultra fussy.

IMO, the wheels that really suit the Leon (not including LCR) are the Audi RS6 18" and the SEAT 17" starfishes which you've got already, and for old school looks the 16" multi-spoke, but only on pre-facelift.

Hi guys. Please can someone let me know if the tt comps would suit the Leon / the ET being fine? Again this is the tt comp/ info: 8j 17H2ET48 - just looking to buy them today if they will fit / look ok.. Offset just seems to high?

That offset seems high. I had some on my golf and I'm sure they were 38?

 

[JW.CupraT]

That's what the add states. The offset wasnt right on the tt comps. So I've gone back to my original idea of the the wheels I first posted. So anyone else think the wheels would look good / bad on the Leon?

 

[UFO Yellow]

TT comps should be 32

The V6 TT Super seven wheels you originally posted would look nice but not poke out as much as TT comps

 

[JW.CupraT]

Yea. The tt comps he said are 5x112?? I'm confused I thought they were all 5x100

 

[Brettyboy]

Most genuine audi wheels are 5x112

Most genuine audi wheels are 5x112

After a certain year they are, but older wheels like the Audi A3 Quattro Sport wheels from 97-2000 had 5x100 fitment, so it must have been early 2000's when they changed to 5x112, but SEAT stayed on 5x100 for a few more years - like they did with the engines, keeping the VE for longer before transferring to PD. E.g. my SX TDI is a 2004 and has a 110 VE engine, whereas no Audis had them at that time and were all on PDs.

Any mk4 golf platform car is 5x100 and so is the 9n polos, ibizss etc but the mk5 platform cars are all 5x112. Such as the mk2 Leon. Most audis that had the engine mounted longtitudinal were 5x112, so all Audi a4 a6 a8, Passats etc.
