Wheel info - Leon Cupra

[Tfsi_Mike]

Planning my new wheels for the cupra.

Theyre made to order, the guys want to know

offset, pcd, brake clearance info (wantin tarox 10pots), bore or something? from what i made of it it might've meant for the wheel nuts?

What effect will it have goin an inch wider, or 2 inch at the rear on handling??

Are the std 18's 8"wide?

Thanks, Mike

hi mike

i believe you will need 5x112 studs, and ET45 - offset.

hope this helps

Thanks mate...

Anyone know width of cupra rims & the impact width would have on handling??

 

[DanGB]

standards are 7.5 wide i think

 

[honeyman]

They are indeed.

 

[Tfsi_Mike]

cool, i thought they were wider, so what would you suggest, want them to look the tits but not sacrifice handling?? 9? 10"?

 

[noktoto]

Standard 18's are 7.5 wide, ET 51. As far as I know ET 35 to 55 is OK.

Thanks guys

mike do you mean 9inch or 10inch wide??

Wanting wide wheels but dont want to sacrifice handling... If std are 7.5 then 9 would look wide??

 

[Tfsi_Mike]

Im thinking 9.5 rear 8.5front, How does the offset effect the fit / stance?

The lower the et the more they poke out?

 

[DanGB]

I dont think you could fit 9's in there. Remember its illegal for the wheels to stick out from the bodywork. What diameter are you going for.

And yes, the lower the ET, the more they stick out.
