Prt number is 363 99 18 , can anyone tell me if they would fit my mk2 gti golf? and does anyone have any information on them , i've been told they are from a rally car and will not fit any standard car. I have searhed for information on them but not really found anthing.

20/65/18 - what are they, racing bicycle tyres?!

With you being the owner of them - surely the easiest way would be just to remove a wheel off your car and see?

It says 205-65-18 but I fit tyres for a living and they look more like 50 profile. Can somebody give me a link so I can find info from the part number , I dont have access to my car at the moment so fittings not a option.

Well 65% of 205mm on an 18 inch wheel will look thin.

18's on a MK2 will look poopy :sick:

seats 4 studs tend to be 4x100 yes.

18" oz's with rubber band tyres tucked under the arches of a slammed mk2 would look epic. get it done!

I myself thought they would be 4x100 their defo SEAT and Auriol's 100%

I've found he drove the cordoba wrc evo2 and if they were 5stud i'd have thought 5x100 vr6 hub conversion maybe but their 4stud and all SEAT are 4x100 before they were converted th 5studs

WTF is my local mechanic talkin about special stud patterns on the rally cars

Citroen and others use 4X108, not just Ford.
Title: Re: Seat competition wheels
Post by: ben harcombe on 03 November 2009, 23:50
i'm measuring from the middle of the bolt hole to the hole opposite and they are 4x110

PCD is pitch circle diameter, so you need to pin point the middle of the holes and draw the circle through them.

We need pictures here.

any tyre / wheel dealer or garage worth their salt should have a pcd measurer in their toolbox.

or just measure across the centre of the wheel, furthest hold edge from centre to nearest hole edge to centre. (this made sense in my mind, but doesnt when typed up).
