Think your going struggle with the widths to be honest.
Someone on here has a set fitted but I believe they are narrower widths.
-
theres a guy whos got them on here..
-
ohh right ok then. well ill try and find him lol. regards :smiley:

so what would you say to me then man? yay or nay? = do it? or dont do it?
-
do it..
-
Personally I think they look the nuts
-
what modification will have to be done to get these bad boys to fit mate?
-
they do look good but a mission to fit, to fit you will need to
descent coilovers / air ride
roll front arches
i have 9j front 10j rears
225 35 19 on rears
213 35 19 on front
-2 camber shims on the rear
5x100 - 5x120 adaptors, im using 20mm rears custom 25mm fronts
to run as low as hamids and look decent you'll need uprated arb, chasis notch, smaller top mounts, raised engine mounts, shallow sump
im just waiting for mine to get back from paint shop then i'll wack some pics up
already had arb, notch done and rolled archs so not to bad for me
look good tho mate when on!!!!
-
:shocked: wooooooow. didnt think would be that much man ahaha!!! thanks for letting me know what need to be done tho!!!
-
thats to run low tho , but really you will need to as these will look silly otherwise, to be far tho any wheels you get you'll have to upgrade suspension etc and for any reall descent wheel adaptors/spacers will be needed,
give me a shout if you go ahead and get stuck
-
:wink: ok i was just wondering.... i dont know alot about cars at all, i try to but most things just confuse me. how much would it cost for all the mods do you rekon mate as in arch rollin notching etc? and where could i get my arches rolled to :undecided: and what is notching and whats uprated arb.
sorry bout being a pain lol but just dont wna buy the wheels ive seen then bollocks everything up.
regards ash
-
1500 all in ?? maybe more including the wheels.. im not really sure
-
i paid
£300 coilies
£400 wheels and tyres
£ 80 for arches rolled
£180 adaptors
£100 arb
£40 notch
£20 shims
say £50 odd bits
most body shops would do your arches, notch most garages would do, arb do a search on as this is a big topic! £60 fitment of coilies i would sat if your not confident, tyres a proper stretch so you might struggle for fitment on certain places
-
they are def the best wheels ive seen on a mk4 in a long time and they aint to common either friggin love them :tongue:

as the good sir mentioned, most of my mods were so that i can drive as low as possible (and also to slam it when parked as close to laying frame)
but you could fit them on to the car with just the wheels, tyres and adaptors. but as these are 19" with lower profile tyres, it's essential to make it look right as the wheels look quite big against the car. so lowering is essential in this case.
thats where you'd probs need the uprated ARB, then the front arch rolled, and camber shims. If you still want to go lower, chassis notch and even lower still, steel sump and engine spacers :smiley:
you defo dont have to do everything all in one go, i did all those things over a period of nearly two years :laugh: :grin:
a few more pics to keep it going, the first batch of pics, ive got
no camber shims or shorter top mounts with 225/35 and 215/35/19's. you'll see that its sits quite nice (yes im on air) ubt also when im rolling

What MM are your spacers at? 25 rear?
-
That looks insane!... don't envy your tyre costs though!
-
thanks! :smiley: and yeah tyres on 19s arent in no way cheapo! even the budgets are expensive :grin: oh well, these were only for winters and will be up for sale after i rock them at UD :shocked:
What MM are your spacers at? 25 rear?
heres my current spec
Fronts: 19 x 9j Et 48 - H&R adaptors 30mm - Final Offset of 18 - Falken FK452 215.35.19
Rears: 19 x 10j Et 45 - Custom adaptors 16mm - Final Offset of 29 - Nankang NSII 215.35.19 - 2 degree camber shims each side
i still dont have any pics of it fitted with the 16mm adaptrs. otherwise all the pics on the previous page are with 20mm on the rear, which works fine
-
Love it. You'd survive about 5 minutes over here lol

Bad roads then ?
-
Yeah awful mate. It's a dream come true when I get to drive over the mainland, no random dips in the road and bits missing etc
-
theres a dip in my car park like the grand canyon the front end would be strait off in seconds let alone minutes but i must say its a great looking car :cool:
-
:grin: theres mad roads everywhere tbh
you just need to be careful and drive with your eyes on the road
and oh, did i mention that air ride is quite usefull in tricky situations? :laugh:
-
mainland FTW !!
-
They do look feckin ossum :drool:
minus the bmw centre caps :lipsrsealed:
-
Im not a fan to be honest. But each to their own!
-
i think they look awsome great job one question wouldnt that fail a mot as the tyres an wheels come out from the arches
-
tyres dont come out of the arches its just the rims!!! sore subject really, laws states that wheel tyre has to be inside the arch, nothing about the wheel, ha ha lol
-
That looks the dogs dangles. Likin the rear end shot. :shocked:
-
so you got them on a technicality then love it ha ha
-
Amazing motor.. Not too keen on the rims themselves, but that is an amazing peice of work :cool:
-

That's what winter/MOT wheels are for :wink:
-
mot = standard wheels, coilies wound up! :grin: :grin:
-

-
