Alloys

Postby Jay Kay » Sun Sep 20, 2015 6:16 pm

Hi I'm new to the forum, I'm picking up my lwb high top this week. I've seen a set of 18" st alloys for sale locally they are 8x18 rear and 7.5x18 front with 225 40 18 tyres, will they go straight on? I noticed the arches seem to have a lot of room.

Thanks in advance

Jon.

Yes they will fit on, but double check the tyres are load rated, and before wasting your money on "transit 18" ms design alloys" have a little read around the forum they are a waste of money, and are made of cheese! enough said! Image

I have no useful input, just saying the moment I opened the topic Jamiroquai started playing on TV. It has to mean something.
