thanks guys, now what sort of size alloys do you think would look good

[MrMPuk]

The trouble you'll have is finding wheel that wont stick out past the arches.

thanks guys, now what sort of size alloys do you think would look good

Personally, I'd love 16" wheels, just that much bigger than normal but not too silly as there is still a fair bit of tyre. I have been looking into wheels for a while now, considered spacers but adding 20mm before any wheel offset is going to lead to extending the arches surely? I'm wondering about redrilling landy wheels now. Even then I don't think 16" will fit without bigger arches, from what I can find. The easiest solution is 14" slot mag or modulars (if you can find them). But yeh, 16" would look good.

DONT USE i bought a set from them then had to get finished of at a local shop

they arent cleaned of they are ruff finished and not de bured ,not even faced of on both sides so dont run true ment to be 20mm thick but 21mm 20.7mm 20.4mm 22mm all over the place

not the only one to say this aswell

Your's seems to be the only feedback on wheel adaptors and even that's neutral.

they dont look any good to me - dont know exactly what they are made from but tapped holes in ally isnt very good and no centre boss

best off to have them made from steel with studs and a centre boss - ok might cost a bit more but jobs like this should be done right

[tkd 1974]

made from billiet alloy

there is a center boss but have to ask for it but not even right size for merc wheels had to get spigot rings

ye tapped holes not good why i got mine re done had studs recest and fitted


ye feed back was b4 i fitted ,,,,, only get so many letters to spell out they are sh*t and at the time was trying to get my cash back
but never got it

I think Luke meant which material?... most are billet... means it's been machined from a lump of alloy rather than forged in a mould.
