dickstar Posted July 25, 2005 Report Share Posted July 25, 2005 Ahoy Matey'sI'm thinking of changing my wheels on my Lupo GTiA mate of mate of mine has a set of four stud 16 inch BBS split rims (same as MK3 golf anniversary alloys) as found on golf cabrio!! Basically 16" version of Polo GTi wheels!! Nice!!They are 16" / 6.5 with a 45 offset!!They currently have 205/45/16 but I would change this to 195/40/16 (so they dont rub)Will these wheels fit my car?? Its the Offset I am concerned about??He wants £300 for they but they are in very good all round cond!!! Is this a good price!!advice on fitting and price pleaseCheers gang!!Tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob-Teg Posted July 25, 2005 Report Share Posted July 25, 2005 I think the offset may be a tad high, a real shame,they will prob stick out around 7-10mm, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dickstar Posted July 25, 2005 Author Report Share Posted July 25, 2005 Wasnt sure because the original GTi lupo wheels where 15/6.5 with an offsetof 45 but wasn't sure wht impact the extra inch in diameter would have!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tigz™ Posted July 25, 2005 Report Share Posted July 25, 2005 I love them, sweetest BBS wheels imo.Weather they'd fit I dont know though, wasnt aware they made them in a 4 stud though? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dubya Posted July 25, 2005 Report Share Posted July 25, 2005 Yes they'll fit. Whether the tyres will scrub, depends entirely on how low it is. £300 is very reasonable style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" /> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dickstar Posted July 25, 2005 Author Report Share Posted July 25, 2005 CoolMy current wheels are Tsw pace with an offset of 38 if these are 45 will they sit further in or further out??? Have got 205/45 on at mo and they rub but did have 205/40 before and they didn't so fingers crossed!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
