New user Posts: 20 | Hello all, I am sure it's been asked many times, but planning on fitting the wheels below to my metro, I don't really understand anything really about spaces etc when it comes to alloys. So before going ahead would I need anything else to fit these alloys on. In other words is it just a straight swop? Also being 14" is there any chance of the wheel hitting the arches front or rear? | ||

MP Admin Posts: 17870 Location: Gloucester | make sure you get small profile tyres, say 45 ratio as this makes the rolling radius smaller and more like the standard wheel and tyre size as these are larger than the normal wheels and foul the archs on bumpy roads and inner archs when turning. | ||

New user Posts: 20 | Thanks for all the info it's just what I wanted to know. Not sure if I will go to the trouble of doing the arches etc, might try and find a set of GTI wheels instead. | ||

Veteran Posts: 335 Location: York, tis Cold Up North! | The wheels in the thread picture above are Team Dynamics 'Motorsport' Wheels manufactured about 10-15 years ago and no longer made. They are 14". I just advertised for and bought a set on MP as I am putting them over MGF/GTI front discs on my R100 as I like the look of them. They were used by Talon as in this picture: http://screencast.com/t/vyg4zV0f6I MetroGaz Edited by MetroGaz 23/7/2014 9:16 PM | ||
