another rims question

Post by A M R »

right so now that ive passed, my dad says that he gona insure me on mums punto for a couple of months :x but i wana get my 360 now!

anyway. i thought that i'd better start getting the parts ready for my modifying and so my first reaction was to find some nice rims.
i have come across some beautiful zender 5-spokes in 15x8 :shock: but they have a ET of 0. would these fit properly?

cheers.

With a et of 0 you will have to cut and extend the arches. You are also likely to find they will have an adverse affect on handling. I would recomend an et between 35 - 20

what does everyone think of these? i like them so might be buying them (well as long as everyone else thinks they look good and will suit the car)

Dont worry so much about what other people think ,
its your car and as long as your happy with what you do to it , it works and its safe , that is what really matters.

as someone who is no longer with us used to say

exactly. but it also depends on whether the rims suit the car as ive seen plenty of cars which look good but are ruined by the rims.

well im loving the rims and after seeing steves car i think they might just work :wink:
