what do you think a set of BBS Challenge wheels would look right on my STI8 and if so would you go the 18 or 19in route and what are the pros and cons?
Also what do you reckon the Audi RS4 wheels would look on a scooby
TIA
Jamie

 

I've got 19" oz's on mySTI8ppp and IMO the don't look very big so I think definatley go for 19"s for the look altough my car does tramline abit but nothing to worry about.

I havn't seen BBS on an my03 but I think the cross spoke style would look good in 19".

I don't think the audi style wheel would carry well look wise on the scooby though.

Good luck & happy new year :-)

 

i see you got the bug bad bro, you are posting in every forum lol, good luck to you, hope your car is running well. I like the bbs, but if i was upgrading from ur standard wheels i would defo get set of the 18s, I would also get a geometry setup, something i am looking into...have fun

 

Had no probs with my 19"s what so ever

 

sorry jamie thought you were chosing between 17 or 18, I really cant comment on 19s, but if you can get them on and they look good then go for it

Has anyone got any pics for me then PLEEEESe.
I put a set of multi fitment RS4 son My sisters Leon R a couple of months ago I think I will be pinching two and seeing how they look. I will post pics when its done
I am going to get the geometry done when I fit the Eibachs I think it should make quite a bit of difference to the handeling.

Come on boy and girls lets see some pics of STI7s & 8s on 19s please

 

Just ordered them they will be hear next week. 19in BBS CHs with Toyo 235/35/19 tyres nuts and lockers £1280 not bad I think.

Also got my front windows tinted today he has done an excellent job and only charged £80 for the two.

Can any one tell me the cheapest place to get some Eibach springs from please.
TIA
Jamie

 

i think ive heard that 19s on a an sti will send your speedo out a bit

just a thought post some pics when there on

happy new year

waky

 

can you get the speedo recalibrated? to allow for this??

 

No need its accurate up to 70mph with my 19s according to my GPS then the speedo over reads ie 120 is acually 116

 

Good price! Where from please?

 

on a private road of course sammyh

 

Yes my drive

 

yes but the road angel is out by about 4mph in comparison to my every car that i drive with it in anyway, so if thats the case, then i would say 19s make no difference at all

 

where did you get wheels at that price jamie?? seems cheap for all that

 

Went down today to pay the deposit and they had made a mistake the book said 1280 and the tucking fill said 1500. I stormed off in a pady and realised I still cant get them any cheaper anywhere else so I went back cap in hand but I did get 6months interest free. I am getting them from ripspeed

 

GREAT 2 days later the fooking phone and say they wont fit doh I was so excited. Help please what 19s will fit and any pics or links would be very helpful
TIA
Jamie

 

dont prodrive do 19s

 

Jason
How is your Road Angel out? I have an Road Angel and a S.E.C.S and they both read within 1mph of each other and they are also spot on with these new flashy speed deterent things that flash your speed when going through a village.

i have put it in about 5 vehicles, a punto, a freelander, 2 scoobs, a merc cl 4x4 and its 4 mph out on all of them to the speedo, in fact, we have 2 road angels in my family, and they are both exactly the same, 4mph out, im suprised you say its equal to be honest.

Jamie, can you give me the contact details of the place for the wheels, i might be buying some 18s bbs, if i can. Do they have a website?

thx
