Title: 16" steelies with 4 x 100 pcd?
Post by: jimbo on 16 November 2005, 18:56: Hi folks

This one is as the title says really. can you get 16" steelies with 4 x 100 pcd? I would like to put steelies on my motor for winter but i have a big brake conversion kit on and cant be arsed to change the callipers and discs over. specialy as i think i have binned me old discs.

It dont matter what make of steelie just as long as it will fit. I used to run 15" bmw steelies in the winter but that wont fit over me calliper.

has anybody any ideas?

Post by: Judderi on 18 November 2005, 14:43: What brakes do you have. My 15" G60 steelies fit over my G60 brakes. Funny that. :tongue:

Post by: jimbo on 19 November 2005, 15:34: i have the brembo 4 pot conversion from badger bill :smiley:

i wanted steelies cos if i slide and hit a kerb steelies dont snap like me mates alloys did last year. also with 16's i could have a larger side wall on me tyre and this would help with kerb collision and hopfully put a bit more softness back in the ride so i dont have to tip toe on the ice as the konis are pretty hard even on the lowest setting.

Post by: Judderi on 21 November 2005, 08:52: Do you often hit curbs or something. I try to avoid them.

Post by: golfpro on 21 November 2005, 13:19: I find it useful to avoid them wherever possible! bloody things tho hey! must have been designed by someone who really didnt care about his wheels! and who really cares about pedestrians!?! if they just bought a car we wouldnt need cerbs then we couldnt damage our nice shiny wheels! :tongue:

*looks at mix :wink:

Post by: jimbo on 21 November 2005, 20:33: new mini wheels thats a good idea i shall find outÃƒâ€šÃ‚Â :wink:

I dont go out looking to hit kerbs and waste Ãƒâ€šÃ‚£100's of pounds worth of alloys but as we all know sh!t happens and i find it easier to drive home on a bent steelie than a snapped alloy. this was proved in a cavalier one winter............. (sorry i once owned a cavalierÃƒâ€šÃ‚Â :undecided:.......... hangs head in shame)
