OE 18'' wheels on a Cupra 280/290?

[DGF264]

As title really - love the 19's HOWEVER a big part of me wants 18's on! (Like my old LCR & MK2 Cupra - I miss the 225/40/18 lol)
19's just feel a bit 'big' when pushing the car - the car is lowered on VWR's with spacers all round.
Anyone got any OE 18's on there 280/290?
I've just had mine powder coated gunmetal chrome - look amazing - but may be open to swop

Cheers!

What OE 18'' wheels will fit to my Cupra 280? (Currently has 19's on)

Right- I'd really like 'the right' 18's on my car - and have a PERFECT set of 19's in gunmetal chrome on the car currently - what will fit?? Or - what you got? Haha

Did the 265 come with 18's ? I thought they did, could try and get hold of a set of those

Just been looking at that Dan although they are identical to the 19's lol - apart from not diamond cut. IF I was going to change them - I'd like to 'change' them haha

I'm pricing up some 18's with tyres - genuinely don't know how much the Cupra 280 19's are worth? PERFECT condition recently powdercoated gunmetal chrome - good uniroyal rainsport 3's all round - and possibly spacers (depending on new wheels) what do you guys think?? Cheers!

could you post up some pictures? I could be interested in those once youve sorted the replacemants

@DANFR180 - I've posted them in the for sale section - including 10mm front spacers and 15mm rear spacers for £1000. BUT I haven't got a clue what they are worth lol - that's what I've put in my advert! Pictures don't do them justice

They are nice mate

 

[DANFR180]

do you know the difference in suspension / springs between the FR and cupra ? dont want it to look like a monster truck and also dont want to lower

 

[DGF264]

@DANFR180 - I'm not sure! Try googling it - I think it may be 20mm or so. Where are u from? Could always get a local Cupra owner to see if they'll trial fit one on yours pictures don't do them justice - they really pop in the sun

Sit perfectly in the arches with the spacers on

Hi Dan

Your 19s look great.

I have been thinking exact same thing do you know if Mk2 18s fit on the Mk3?

Cheers

 

[DGF264]

They are up for sale now Rob66 in the forum for sale section - but sadly no, I don't think the mk2 18's fit unless someone can correct me?

Cupra is 10mm lower.

They look lovely! Think I'll do that on my 18" 265 Alloys which are currently black.

Haha I'm quite happy with mine and @ £1k I think power coating and a diamond cut could be done for less. Thanks for the offer though

Saw a set for £500 on Facebook last month although with bridgestones

 

[DGF264]

@ukoldschool - set of 4? Wow that is cheap considering they are like £400-£500 each new lol.. I'm hoping powdercoated (@£280) and PERFECT condition with spacers - will warrant a higher price
