Be aware that these wheels weigh a LOT (one of the heaviest on the market) and therefore will ultimately effect handling/performance..!

Will the 8x18 fit straight on a classic MY00?

8" wide is likely to cause issues on a Classic I'm afraid.

.........and LOL @ them coming with tyres at that price!! Bought mine from Reyland, great service.


Cheers,

Have a look on hear and compare to equivalent sized alloys (particularly OZ super leggs..)

WHEELWEIGHTS.NET

Then remember, your looking at unsprung weight, if an unsprung part is 5lbs heavier you're looking at the equivalent of around 20lbs sprung weight (then x 4 wheels = ~100lbs/45kgs..!).

Believe me it adds up..!
