Title: New wheels for my SA Elford Turbo
Post by: mireck 12a on July 24, 2004, 10:52:16 PM
My new wheels for my 12a turbo have arrived.
And just in time for my holiday to the Tjech Republic!
I\'m going to fit them next couple of days so I can test drive the car during my holiday

Picture are here :

mmmmmmm they look very nice, how wide are they and what offset can you get away with, with a wide body kit ?

Really nice mate, they remind me of nice shiny Cooper rims.

Mike ,

I want to keep my bearings healthy, so I choose the make the wheels with this config;

8JJ x 15" 4x110 boltpattern ET -7 (minus)

this way the force on the bearings stays the same and I completely fill up the arches
