« on: October 28, 2009, 01:36:11 pm »
as ive prob bored you silly with,by now i am about to get some...new rims
bbs LM replicas
the sizes are 8.5x19 et45 5-112pcd
the tyres will need to be 235/35/19 s i think...
i have a client who can get cheap continentals thru a work contact but has asked me for some info i dont understand..
this is what she has asked for........
I would need the loading index & speed rating ( i know this sounds technical!!) which will be 2 numbers and a letter (something like 98W or 92T) at then end of the other numbers you gave me.
can anyone help and i can order the wheels and then she can provide me with some nice rubber!
big fanx(esp TC behind the scenes)

Because of the way the LM's are styled i.e. a bit of dish and plenty of spokes it would have to be slammed on its arse to make 18's look big enough, IMO 19's are the only way to go  :happy2: :wink:

I doubt you will need the spacers with the 19's on, they will look spot on anyway, you will probably get a lot of rubbing if you leave them on  :wink: :happy2:
