Try it before you buy it if its not far to go

They wont fit ryan. I know as i got a st 2days ago and am now trying to find out what sized spacers are required. But not had much info back yet.

Just notice one small difference in that mine are 17x7.5
not sure if that will make a massive difference but mine were a little way off from fitting.

You're best off PM'ing M444GGY on here, but I suspect you'll need a 3-5mm spacer

ryan51

thanks for the replys,the guy said i could try them to see if they fit but they have no tires on so would not be able to tell if the tires rubbed on the arches.they have just been refurbished and the guy wants €400 for them so like £350,they have come off an evo 7 if that makes any difference?cheers,ryan.

if you offer them up you'll at least know if they clear brakes. Then put something against them straight.. and up to the arch to see how close the rims would be. Then it's most likely down to the make of tyre and it's rim angle. Sure you could find something.

yeh thats a fair point,thanks for the reply mate,ryan.

If they've come off an Evo they'll be 5x114.3 so they won't fit

Edit : Who has told you that they are 5x100 as you say in your original post?

ryan51

i believe they are a multi stud pattern fitment mate,not clued up on it tho.cheers,ryan.

Ah right, then your only concern will be whether they will clear the brakes. I think, as I already said, you'll probably need a small spacer, but ask M444GGY for confirmation

ryan51

thanks for the reply mate,i shall look him up and drop him a message,cheers,ryan.

I'd love to go back sometime to revisit some of my regular haunts

hawky666

I've only had 1 holiday which was 1 wk in protaras, and boy do i want to go back.
Other trips abroad were with the army, and couldn't really class them as a holiday.

Hows the weather over there at this time ?
