Just fitted a set of Matt Black TSW Donington alloys to my 2005 Ovni Yellow Ibiza 1.4S. The old Dezents got a bit bashed up in the potholes but I might see if it's worth refurbishing them for sale on ebay.

They are 17x8 ET32 with a 72mm-57.1mm Spigot Ring and 205/40/R17 84Y tyres fitted. Standard suspension parts & brakes.

The mating face of the new wheels has a larger diameter than the hub face and the protrusions around the bolt holes were rubbing against the edge of the brake pad on the fronts. I fitted a 5mm Eibach hubcentric series 1 spacer kit (S90-1-05-006) sourced from Damian at DPM Performance to solve that little problem.

Pictures of wheels on car

Not the best pics. My excuses are that I didn't have much spare time today, and it was flipping cold outside. I'll take some more on flat ground when the weather's better if anyone here's interested. :cam:

I need to update my signature photo now :)
 
Thanks guys.

Yeah, I know the ride height is high on standard suspension, however I need the car to have a softish ride and be able to cope with passengers and stuff in the boot as well as drive down country roads (some of which actually have a grass hump in the middle!). Lowered would be good, but I like the new look as it is now too :)
