Guys

Has anybody fitted 19" wheels to a MY94? As I have been thinking of doing so, I have seen a set on a scooby the other day and they filled the arches nicely. Will I have todo anything to the bodywork at all?

Nate

Hunswon,

Do you know of anyone that will supply 19 inch wheels, other than the diablo?

Is it only Team dynamics that are available, or is there any different makes?

Hi Guys

there are plenty of 19" wheels out there but the beauty of these is that no work is required to get them to fit.

We actually liaised with Rimstock during the development of this application and helped finalise offset and bolt fitment for the scoob.

For this reason we can get VERY good deals on this particular wheel and tyre combo (and all Rimstock)... please check us out as i am fairly confident that we are more than competitive pricewise!

Cheers

Hello peeps,

I got 19's on the car now. Diablo's, with P7000's.
They fill the arches very well and look stunning.

My car is a 98 UK turbo, fitted with H&R springs and standard dampers (lowers the car about 30mm) and I am getting rubbing at the back. The front is fine.
If I am in the car myself, it's very drivable, in and around town, to and from work. If you want to go to the country side for some fun or put poeple in the back...it's a no no.
Looking for help on what my options are now. Rolled arches at the rear ( but I would like to keep the wheel to arch look I have got at the moment) or a complete new suspension set up such as Leda B's. Preferably the Leda's, but are they what I need?
