Wheel dilemma
- Thread starter Pid_16V
- Start date
Too late! I've already seen these as previously mentioned. No way would i put 19's on, If i wanted cart wheels, i'd buy a cart . The azevs i've got are 7.5j with a 50mm offset,with a 5mm spacer fitted there is appx 5mm clearance at the strut and they sit under the arch nicely. Those 19's are 8.5j with a 40mm offset.
Good point Al. I find 18's crashy enough, the 17" Monza R's I've got on now are the perfect blend of comfort and grip for me
1) Ebay sale removed! cos i'm still not certain, i actually had butterflies that they might actually sell
2) I sold the 5mm spacers i bought for the "test" period, but now i've bought a new set. :angel:
3) Big possibility the azevs will be refitted for fest.
4) Does this mean i'm flogging the wolfies? Your guess is as good as mine

The Avez's look fantastic....... But just don't fill the wheel arch enough if you know what I mean mate
It's good to see that the consensus is like my brain ie: undecided . The "filling the wheel arch" comments are understandable but it's an optical illusion, probably caused by the large centre and broad 5 spoke design. They actually fill the arches just slightly less than the 18's, it's also a fact that the 18" tyres are slightly oversize. OFS makes me forget what profile they are .

I agree, the 7.5j with et45 is very close to the strut and not much more clearance in the arch. I doubt very much those 19's would fit, as nice as they are.
You know me Al - Blingy Wolfies all the way for me mate
John - glad you are enjoying the blingy Monza's

i did think that after I posted Iain
They're not that blingy at the moment though cos they're filthy
I think the 18" look the better option, however I might vote for the 17" on the off chance that the 18" would then go up for sale and might be able to buy, but that's me being crafty
seriously will vote for the 18" and be honest

Have decided to get the tyre off the refurbed azev wheel and get the rim mirror polished to match the other three. I don't think i've got the correct polishes to do it myself.
Azevs back on................for now....
.....and I'm supposed to be the one who collects alloys for fun

This isn't for fun, i'm in agony here..
You know I'm all for bigger is better Alan but I honestly thing the five spokes suit it best.
It's tough as it is a very personal thing.
