cortinasgoneforaburton Posted March 8, 2010 Report Posted March 8, 2010 Right guys and gals back in November i bought these wheels Now its its only taken 4 month but had a test fit today, they are wearing 205x60x13 tyres, i need to trim the centre caps a bit as they popped off but i am a bit unsure of whether i like them. The stealths were on for 2 years so they may just take a bit of getting used to. lock to lock they dont rub but i think they will when i drive the car, even with stiffened suspension so i will just have to wait and see. attacking the rear arches tomoz and just a couple of rust patches in other areas to address. So tell me what you think of them.
Guest cortinamad-gonetoo Posted March 8, 2010 Report Posted March 8, 2010 i like them they do stick out more than mine though so must be a different et mines 205/50/15 and just sit behind the arch as mine lowered too
Grizzley Dell Posted March 8, 2010 Report Posted March 8, 2010 i think they look good but also think they are illegal. im pretty sure they cant stick out past the arches.
RetroNick Posted March 8, 2010 Report Posted March 8, 2010 You're right mate, they cant stick out past the arches. Hope you have a hard suspension They do look bloody nice though
cortinasgoneforaburton Posted March 8, 2010 Author Report Posted March 8, 2010 How far they stick out made me think about legalaty to id reroute the plods attention with my deffnin straight through exhaust lol
marky4 Posted March 8, 2010 Report Posted March 8, 2010 they do look nice but think you might need alittle bit less rubber maybe 205 / 50's
Stu_B Posted March 8, 2010 Report Posted March 8, 2010 Love the wheels, don't like the tyres. 185/60's would look much better.
Fiesta Steve Posted March 8, 2010 Report Posted March 8, 2010 The tread must be covered by the arch, the side wall and rim may stick out.
5hane Posted March 8, 2010 Report Posted March 8, 2010 kin el ! get the man some tyre foam look good mate !
Guest cortinamad-gonetoo Posted March 8, 2010 Report Posted March 8, 2010 looks like your option is try different tyres
cortinasgoneforaburton Posted March 8, 2010 Author Report Posted March 8, 2010 i will price some more tyres up one option above was 205x50 didnt know they did that size watch this space
Copey Posted March 8, 2010 Report Posted March 8, 2010 get some 185s one em, bit of stretch, probebably enough to get the tread under the arch they do look very cool though!!!
inspectorgusset Posted March 9, 2010 Report Posted March 9, 2010 Carlos Fandangos I like the wheels but smaller rubber
retrorigg Posted March 9, 2010 Report Posted March 9, 2010 much much much much better than the 15,s or 14,s that were on b4, even if they are black, silver would have looked nicer in my humble opinion but still looks cool
cortinasgoneforaburton Posted March 9, 2010 Author Report Posted March 9, 2010 ordered a 185x50x13 so one rim is at the garage waiting to have a tyre change its a yoko £34 so watch this space for another test fit
