Alloy Wheels question - Advice needed
I am hoping to fit Rota GTR-D wheels to my 54 Plate STI.
Ideally I want to fit 18" x 9.5" on the 5x114 size stud. Does anybody know what tyre size I need and if I would need to roll my arches. My car has not been lowered yet. Also does anybody recommend a good business to buy them from? Any help would be much appreciated. Dan |
Try M444gy on here , supplies Rota wheels on here Ruislip tyre services I think
|
Get them from Maggs, he'll do you a good price. 225/40s or 235/40s can be stretched over a 9.5" rim but TBH it would look a bit odd without some lowering. If it isn't lowered you shouldn't need to roll the arches:thumb:

Thanks for the advice.
I have a feeling I spoke to M444gy some time ago about tyres. I cant remember if it was when I had my first Impreza though. I think I will use him as a few people have recommended him in the past. I will phone him nearer the time as I need a chat about carrying out my wheel plan. I probably need to wait a a little longer before buying as I am getting maried in 4 weeks time and there is lots to pay for. Wheels should come first though surely.:lol1: How do you set out on your honey moon without a good set of wheels? |
