Sweet! Thanks for the input, I guess i better keep looking for the "Perfect" Wheels! No way am i going to be extending the arches etc.... I dont mind getting a arch flare!

Yes, flush without the 20mm spacers at the moment. Or as you can guess, poking about 2cm with the spacers.... I think that i need to take this up with the Wheel-Whores guys, they should be able to give me a better idea! Your help has been greatly appreciated Cookstein :) Maybe if i drop in...

Oh really, if your calculations are correct that means its going to stick out the arch by about 5-6cm then... possibly a little to extreme without arch modifications!

No idea, i'm currently running on the rear: 18x8.5J ET35 20mm spacers And this pokes about 2-3cm... HMM, I don't think anyone has been that adventurous on this site. I guess i'm going to just have to "Wing It" and MAKE them fit! Going to possibly need some arch work!

Its still to early in the day eyy ;) hehe I'm not sure, 20mm might be the smallest they can be.

I was a silly boy a also did the same, spent £400 on some cheap reps and then spent another £400 on Falken Rubber! Couple of pot-holes later the rims were terrible, flat spots galore from the soft and cheap alloy. I ended up biting the bullet and spending some serious cash on proper wheels and...

The wheels are 5x120 (BMW Fitment correct?), and yes my 8L audi is 5x100. Like i said before, i will have to use some adaptors but thats all good because they double-up as the spacers too... 5x112 is the new'er Audi fitment isn't it... As for tyres i was thinking something like a 215/205, give...

Reps are poorly made, heavy and usually finished to a pretty bad standard. You would be better off going to a cheaper wheel manufacture, or saving up for the real deal...

Right, so i'm looking for some Fresh wheels for my car. Something to look good over the summer! I have seen a rare set of ACS Type 1's in 17x8.5 and 17x10.5J, They have a rather low Offset (ET) due to being BMW fitment (along with 5x120PCD) The ET of those wheels are ET17 front and ET20...

Will those TVR callipers bolt onto a 1.8T? Im very interested in doing the conversion if so...

Spacers fitted

Just one more ;)

Couple of fresh ones of mine, Big plan coming soon! All i can let on is arch flare, spacers and camber... but for now: I know she can go much much much lower, but she get driven hard and i wouldn't want to be tip-toeing around!
