  2. Could anyone help me to find a place or person that is selling a set of BBS RS in red any where. Cheers

    BBS RS772

    Okay, couple of questions - Do these require a torque wrench when assembled and seal the bolts with loctite? Can't find anything specific about this model, everything sums up about the RS/RM assembly/disassembly. Emailed BBS officials and the reply was that they don't recommend splitting their wheels, because the road safety will be compromised. And they don't provide torque settings to anyone, not even third party sellers. Anyone refurbed these before?
  4. Just picked up some 14 inch g60 lookalike wheels, can anyone tell me what tyre size would be most suitable? Thanks

    Wheels for GTI ?

    Hi all, I am on the verge of buying myself a GTI and I am already thinking about changing the wheels. The car will probably be black and I was thinking that a set of black wheels with chrome/stainless rim would look good on it. I think I want to stick to 15" wheels so that the ride and handling is unaffected and close to stock. I would welcome any recommendations that people have tried and know they will fit the Lupo. In addition, any advice on offsets etc I should be looking at that would fit the Lupo and avoid arch rubbing etc
  8. found some 15" ats cups that i am willing to purchase but before i commit was wondering if anyone wiser than me know if they fit i know the fact they are 4x100 so they would and i understand the fact that i need to have lower profile tyres in order to keep the overal diameter the same but was looking for advice on offsets and rim width ie would they be outside the arch width. any help would be apreciated thanks harry
  9. he currently own a 1.4 vw lupo sport in red and was wondering what rims to get got a budget of about £250 - £375 was thinking about some ronal turbos but advice would be great thanks.
  10. Hi guys, any of you wheel enthusiasts know what these are called? A mate got them today and he needs to know the make/model. Thanks.
  11. Hi , Just bought a set of ATS Cup 7J alloys with 195/45/15 tyres for my Arosa 2001 it has coilovers fitted, will I need any spacers or differant bolts (already running 14" Seat alloys ) idealy do not want to roll arches. Thanks.
  12. Whats up everyone, I've decided on the wheels that I want, I'm going for a set of silver Axe EX8's 15" x 8". My problem though is tyre's. I don't know the first thing about stretching so i wanted to know what size tyre would go well with a nice amount of stretch, I'm thinking 195/45/15. Has anyone got any pics of something simlar? Like 1j thinner than the wheels? Any help is appreciated! Thanks everyone!
  13. I have a set of BBS....I believe they are BBS ra433s. 14x6 4x100 et38. I have a 1.4 16v 2001 lupo sat on standard suspension. Any idea what size tyre would be best to go for?
  14. My new engine is finally being fitted in a rush as i need the car for bugjam to get in with my VW weekend ticket! There isnt enough time to make the car something amazing for Bugjam, so i think im literally just going to have my coilovers fitted! It doesnt matter though as im not going to be showing it anyway Not enough time to fit my wheels as with my custom adaptors my arches are going to have to be pulled like crazy! Plus im still sanding down the dishes so they can be polished AND i still havnt decided on a colour for the centres.. although think i might go for grey. I have custom panels (bootlid and doors) waiting to be put on but they still need painting, boo! No point in rushing when i can take my time and have it ready for Edition38 in september!

  22. Wonder if anyone can help me, im looking to lower my lupo sport soon and looking to get some mini superlites or if any come up for sale some vw starlites, the plan is to lower it as much as i can and incase the wheels rub ill need to camber it. Ive seen if you have rear drums you use camber shims but the lupo sport has rear discs, how would you change camber on that? Is it the same as the front? some advice would be appreciated, thanks
  23. Looking for wheels. I don't know what for exactly. I know the stud pattern and offset and all that. Just don't know what wheels to get. Don't know how much to spend, don't know what spoke, don't have any orientation whatsoever. Just want pictures, ideas and opinions. Please help, i'm going to go mad, haha I'm a student, so bear in mind I can't spend ridiculous amounts, just looking for a range of what is out there, and what you all think looks good? If you're really into helping, you can tell me about stretched tyres? Go crazy! Thanks guys/girls, Mitch
