superdooper Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 why not just use your wheels and fit spacers to put the wheels further out into the wider arch,,,,yes and i know that when a car is origanaly designed......the weight is kept through the wheel bearings , and fitting diff wheel s and spacers can , make the bearings wear faster, some cars are prone to this .

JamieP Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 Got a nice set of 11x18 and 12x18 magnesium Fikse's with a anodised lip, going to be £2500 for me to sell though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have a read of this thread http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?241485-Cheap-and-nasty-wheels If you're on a budget I'd look for a good quality set of second hand wheels rather than buy cheap quality wheels new.
