SamuraiFlash Posted November 18, 2010 Share Posted November 18, 2010 Hi Guys, Just wanted to know from the boy's who have these on thier supra's wheather they fit over UK brakes or not. Also will i need spigot rings to fit them on? And does anyone know how much they weigh? http://t0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:C5SweVqZudRZoM:http://i298.photobucket.com/albums/mm268/CG2PROJECT/IMG_0794.jpg&t=1 Thanks:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nic Posted November 18, 2010 Share Posted November 18, 2010 Yes with the correct width and offset they will clear the larger brake calipers. Yes you will need a spigot ring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bailey. Posted November 18, 2010 Share Posted November 18, 2010 What makes them need spigot rings? I've never came across these when changing wheels on any of my cars???? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dr_jekyll Posted November 18, 2010 Share Posted November 18, 2010 they have to be tight to the hub spigot other wise there it too much load on the studs and can be dangerouse . aswell as cause wheel wobble Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swampy442 Posted November 18, 2010 Share Posted November 18, 2010 What makes them need spigot rings? I've never came across these when changing wheels on any of my cars????

Nic Posted November 19, 2010 Share Posted November 19, 2010 What makes them need spigot rings? I've never came across these when changing wheels on any of my cars???? Most aftermarket wheels have a larger central hole so that they are able to fit different cars, a spigot ring is used to match the hole to the particular cars hub. I'm guessing there's a lot of car owners out there that don't realise they need a spigot ring and just bolt the wheels on. The spigot helps centralise the wheel and takes most of the loading.

SupraShaun Posted November 19, 2010 Share Posted November 19, 2010 I have these wheels without spigot rings (I think, I'll double check), what size spigot rings are needed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SamuraiFlash Posted November 19, 2010 Author Share Posted November 19, 2010 Guys I need your opinion on whether i should replace my current set of gunmetal grey Rota GTR's for these Volks Challenge FZero's? The volks will need to be refurbished so the colour is not finalised atm. http://t0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:C5SweVqZudRZoM:http://i298.photobucket.com/albums/mm268/CG2PROJECT/IMG_0794.jpg&t=1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nic Posted November 19, 2010 Share Posted November 19, 2010 Guys I need your opinion on whether i should replace my current set of gunmetal grey Rota GTR's for these Volks Challenge FZero's? The Volks will be better made and should lighter in weight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pedrosixfour Posted November 19, 2010 Share Posted November 19, 2010 What colour shall i have them powder coated to go with my white supra? What about gunmetal grey with polished ally or white on the raised detail? Being a white car I think you could get away with some interesting combo's if you were brave enough!

tbourner Posted November 19, 2010 Share Posted November 19, 2010 Don't you prefer the SF Challenge with the lip? I swapped my non-lip Challenge for some SF Challenge from dusty - awesome wheels! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SamuraiFlash Posted November 19, 2010 Author Share Posted November 19, 2010 gunmetal grey with polished ally I like the sound of this bud Being a white car I think you could get away with some interesting combo's if you were brave enough!
