Sami_Jayne_R Posted December 19, 2007 Report Share Posted December 19, 2007 Is there any possibility that 7x16" would ever fit on a standard lupo?My brother says the biggest I can go is 15", but I fallen in love with some 16"s ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MartyP Posted December 19, 2007 Report Share Posted December 19, 2007 I should think 16x7 would fit under standard height.Thou it will look like a 4x4 or a fox Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTi T Posted December 19, 2007 Report Share Posted December 19, 2007 Hi Sami jayne7x16 will be fine on your standard LupoThey would even be ok if you lowered it in the future, mine is dropped on its behind on coilovers and when i had my white compomotives on which were 7x16 they were fineI had 205x40x16 tyresbest of luck tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lunalupi Posted December 19, 2007 Report Share Posted December 19, 2007 (edited) You have a GTi though Tom.. wouldn't it fould regular Lupo arches?Craig just fits his 15x7s on, and aparently I will have problems too and I'm not even as low! (I'm still to test them out though) Edited December 19, 2007 by lunalupi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Linz Posted December 19, 2007 Report Share Posted December 19, 2007 It totally depends on the offset. If they are around about the standard et35 then they will be fine. You may start to experience problems at around et25 or lower. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
one litre wonder ;) Posted December 19, 2007 Report Share Posted December 19, 2007 nic i was ET25 on a 15x7 and scrubbed with rolled arches and stretched tyres but you have to remember i was RIGHT the way down on coilovers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lunalupi Posted December 19, 2007 Report Share Posted December 19, 2007 I'm hoping I won't have to do quite as much as you Although I do plan to drop the coilovers a bit more Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris260 Posted December 19, 2007 Report Share Posted December 19, 2007 I think Al (nfbr) used to have 7x16", think they were around ET40ish. Looked good and it was still fairly low for being on 16's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

`lupo-on`-chromes Posted December 19, 2007 Report Share Posted December 19, 2007 I had a 16v 75 hp model and i fitted 7x17 with no problems.so 16's should be ok. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lunalupi Posted December 20, 2007 Report Share Posted December 20, 2007 Well, this all bodes well for me - I might even go and test fit the new wheels if I can face going out in the cold Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
