Wheel help...
« on: November 01, 2011, 01:55:55 pm »
Hi guys,

running a black 06 on 17inch monzas.
Looking to update to BBS LM reps to improve the look.
Was thinking at buying 18's as have increased wheel size on previous cars, too much, and lost some comfort.
Does anyone know if 19's would make a big difference to ride? If not, what width wheel, offset and tyre size would I need?

If I stick with 18's was thinking going for 8inch on front and 9 on rear. Has anyone done this and has a photo?
What size tyres would I need to run to not scrape? Do I have to modify anything? What offset would I need?

Sorry for all the questions, look forward to your help.

If it goes through I will have a set of 17 monzas with Pirelli's all round. What can I expect to sell them for?
Anyone interested?
