Depends if you like that sort of look/stance. I don't mind a slight bit of poke but I'm not into the euro-look. Those wheels on their own would sit nicely so it's a shame you need PCD adaptors.

Bear in mind you can also hoof up the handling when you start playing around with the track width. Not always the case but you won't know until you actually test it.

Oh ok so fitment wise it will be ok just not your cup of tea? That's cool i think it will look ok and he car is rarely driven too so its my project. Will 20mm adapters be ok or you think i could away with 15mm?

I would go with 15mm if you have that option. Until they're fitted you won't know of any issues like rubbing etc but you'll have to cross that bridge when you come to it.

Make sure the PCD adaptors are the hubcentric type.

Why hubsentric? Was looking at fk ones? They no good?

Thanks for the help mate

Is hubcentric the same as H&R?

Hubcentric is the type not a make. FK probably do those as well. Means the weight of the wheel etc is on the hub and not on the wheel bolts.

 

[benj1989]

Ok so that's better for strain right.

Definitely! I wouldn't put non-hubcentric adaptors/spacers anywhere near my car.

I maybe wrong here but a standard leon offset can be between 42-50 depending on wheel and model right?
So if the wheels in question are 38 offset and are 8J why would they sit out so far?

 

[Redemption]

Standard offsets are higher than that. My FR 17's were 7J ET54. Cupras are 18 x 7.5J ET51.

 

[Marshall]

When googling it just says 42-50 which is why I wondered.
My R on 19"s are 8j but insure on the offset.

 

[Redemption]

Think it's ET53 for the 19's on the Cupra R.

Edit. Deffo ET53.

The FK ones are 79 and the H&R are 125. Think ill go for the FK ones tbh as its not a daily driver and not driver hard so think ill be ok.

Redemption do you no about the law involving the wide euro look? Iv seen many cars on the roads with wheels the you can see the tyre tread from above. Is this legal do you no. I'm getting mixed answers through google.
