What do you think of these wheels?

[OllieL]

Get them refurbed, polished lip and alpine/candy white centers. Get some flat center caps. Much lower profile tyres (toyo's T1-R always give you a bit of a stretched look even if they are not stretched), 20mm hubcentric spacers on the rears and you are away

Thought it said wheels were et20 in the add? 20mm spacer would make it et 0??
As for links i'm off out to work, but sure if you type Borbet A Centre Cap, Or Just Borbet A you will find what we are talking about

i want that sort of look, obviously i need to get different tyres. But do you think the tyres on the rims already will ok until i lower it? I won't be lowering it till next month or even the month after.

Should ask them if they'll do you a deal

 

[EnGbudd]

havn't got the money now

I'm sure you could just modify the standard ones to make them flat. Angle grinder, filler and silver spray paint and your done

 

[EnGbudd]

To be honest i quite like the look of the bit coming out of the center

Will these wheels/tyres fit ok on an unlowered car?

 

[CraigW]

The centre caps on the borbets is really personal taste tbh. Some people prefer the flat centre caps and some prefer them with the ones you have. Its up to you in the long run because you will be the one to look at them everyday.

Sorry for bumping the thread, saves me making a new one. Just wondering if 195's will fit on those borbet A's i bought or will i have to go for 205's? thanks. Im gonna go down my local tyre place when i get the wheels to see how cheap they can do em.

 

[sooty16v]

195's will look much better and give you a nice stretch. Im running 195/40's on my wheels and they are perfect, no rubbing at all and im down about 80mm.

Try this place for tyres, I got my Toyo's from there:

http://www.camskill.co.uk/

Cheapest I found and very prompt delivery. I believe they are used by many users of the forum aswell...

 

[EnGbudd]

Will tyre places be able to stretch them then? Yeah i saw that website. Very reasonable.

 

[Mckellar]

you'll not get a great stretch on a 7.5J rim - if any

Not every garage will be willing to fit stretched tyres for you tho. But a bit of cash in hand normally sorts that problem out

 

[EnGbudd]

I might just get 205's from the tyre place and let them fit them i really am strapped for cash atm.

 

[EnGbudd]

Guys, just wondering what size tyres seat toby has also does he have spacers at all?

[EnGbudd]

[EnGbudd]

Really wanna know cus i dont want my wheels hidden under my arches.

 

[Mckellar]
