PR 1.2 fitment
« on: March 13, 2010, 11:58:34 am »
My wheels arrived yesterday, the bolt holes are a smaller diameter than originals, am I missing something or have I been sent the wrong wheels :surprised:

What time is Demon Tweeks open till? They've got massive amounts of different stuff in stock, they could find you something and then just bill it back to who you got the wheels off?

SOLVED.. I am ashamed to say that I took the word of the tyre fitter re the bolt holes and was wrong, I was speaking with a friend and went to demonstrate how the bolt is too big for the hole as I had been told, lined the two up and it fell in place! I can't believe it, so I now have my new wheels fitted to the front but can't get the tryes put on the rears untill tomorrow  :ashamed: :ashamed:

Ridiculous I know  :stupid:

I had thought about black but fancied a change from the black monza's... Can't wait to get the rears on, was planning on still running the 10mm spacers, is there likely to be a issue with this?

you won't need them pal the TD's are 8" wide and 45 et, std is 7.5" wide 51 et, so with the TD's it like running a 12mm spacer with the std wheels :happy2:
