So finally found some 19" Wheels with the right offset that clear the front calipers. Fitted some Winterac pro tyres. So bring on the snow [url]

They look a bit posh for winters. I was expecting some utilitarian steel wheels there!

Lol Quite restricted on what will fit over front brakes. The Discs are 371mm so you have no chance with steels :-) :-)
Wheels came from Germany. Fair bit cheaper than the Uk

sick looking wheels smile

I have steels on mine got second hand for £40 the set smile

You will notice the grip difference on snow/ice big time.....only the tts around you will not be able to stop !

Are those wheels just for your winter tyre set?

Yeah it Runs 20" 245 normally. Would have loved some steels but zero chance of clearing the front Calipers.

Facebook is not to bad for selling stuff. Still the same idiots asking questions. But it's Free.
