Cuprari

Guest
I'm looking after some cool aftermarket wheels for my Cupra's winter tyre set.

New Cupra has quite massive front brakes and thereby it may be possible that many aftermarket alloys will not fit (brake caliper is rubbing up against the spokes).

Has any Cupra owner already installed some aftermarket alloys which truly fits without distance discs etc. ?

I am interested in 18-inch wheels only because bigger ones are bit too extreme for winter tyre use.

Please write wheel's brand, type, width and ET.

And fotos please ! [B)]
 
As far as I know it shouldnt really be a problem as the brakes are that wide?

Find the spec of the current wheels and you will be able to work out what fits from that, by looking at the clearence.
 
Don't think anyone has made the change to the wheels yet apart from our European cousins. Could look at what JE Designs have done with their wheel choice and reverse deduce it from there.
 
TSW Catalunyas 8x18, et 45 fit on mine ok, but the front caliper clearance is minimal...
