18" alloys - 28/11/2010 17:16

Looking at some 18" Savage alloys for my 20vt, are there any issues with tyres/wheels catching bodtwork or suspension?

They are apparantly direct fit.

Thanks

Did you buy the Ebay ones for £210 I flagged up a few threads down Tim?.I'm glad someone bought them as I think if they'd been relisted for a forth time I'd have bit.That would be three sets of wheels in the garage and an angry wife.

Missed them Bilbo.

I want some bigger wheels, pref 17", as tyres are easier to get and it gives a little more air space to the stiffled Brembo's

be careful Tim, confirm they are definately a direct fit. I'm super cautious now after the last 2 saga's i've had with wheels.

It depends on the width of them and the ET.

With 215/35/18 size tyres they will actually have a marginally smaller circumference than standard tyres, or 225/35/18 will have a marginally larger circumference. It all depends on the width and ET.
