Ibiza Cupra Ideas

[Ryan.James]

Hey, im looking for a bit of advice from you guys. Im looking to go down the 'euro/cleaned' route but i just need a few pointers and ideas. Coilovers are being ordered this weekend to sort out the ride height. Its booked in next week to have the roof done black/anthracite (havent quite decided yet) This is where i need your help, should i have the standard wheels painted while its in the bodyshop same colour as the roof or buy some new wheels that will possibly suit the look im going for better. Also, what are the smallest wheels that will fit round the cupra brakes and what sort of offset will i be looking at to make the spokes clear. Thanks in advance......

p.s it wont let me upload pictures but its a 2006 standard silver cupra

Smalles wheels you can go are 17s, and even then, most 17s wont fit

what sort of coilovers are you getting? (not ebay i hope)as for wheels, there are a few that fit over the brakes but like vroomtshh said not very many. personally i'd stay with the standard ones, they look great, and also there like rocking horse s**t so if you do decide too sell them you wouldn't be short of buyers

if you after some idea's for the sort of look your after, check out the readers rides http://www.seatcupra.net/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=229 a few people have gone down the euro route

Thanks for the replies. No not ebay going for some Weitec ones, heard some good reviews from them. I do like the standard ones im just not sure they fit in with the style im looking for

The standard ones dont really fit in with the euro look. But other than removing the brakes, or running huge spacers, theres not a lot you can do. I really really want BBS RS (i think) on mine, but its just not possible unless i got 18s and thats not really gonna look right.

good choice, iv got AP coilovers on mine which are made by the same people that make wietec (KW).

if you really want to change the wheels then am sure you can find some that ill fit and which you like the look of, but in the mean time the cupra wheel arn't to bad to have on are they.

if you can't find any on the readers rides threads then you can always start a new thread asking what people have instead of standard cupra wheels or which fit
