Got me a pretty sweet deal! What tyres? On coil overs
Well I've been wanting some rotas for aaaaages... Then some popped up and I snapped the guys hand off! Rota grid drifts 18x9.5... £350!!!!
BARGAIN very good condition too. Not sure what tyres? Loads of people run
225 40s and they don't look too stretched? What's people thoughts?
in theory youll need a 245 minimum on a 9.5, stretchings just wrong on performance cars, best left to the polo brigade.
Just my opinion, if you like the look of it and can handle a nasty ride and a massive reduction in grip then fill your boots.
What he said! I actually have these fitted with 225/40/18's and there is a stretch which absolutely kills the handling. If you was to ever fit a 245 you would need to hack your arch to within an inch of their life! Im getting rid of mine pretty soon as everytime I actually try to have a little fun with another (today a ttrs) I actually had to slow down due to lack of traction due to the stretch!
At the end of the day you either want go or show and a car like this is all about go! Just my opinion too! At that price though what a bargain! Oh and dont forget the 5mm spacers to clear the front brembo's.
