coxBEANS. Posted March 12, 2011 Report Share Posted March 12, 2011 basically if you can read the tittle pretty much says it all.. been planning fitting and other things to finally get my steels banded ect. Me being a complete tit about it i never tryed my 13" steel on the front untill the day one got banded.. completly gutted.So what i really wanted to ask is, is there ANY 13" steel wheel that will fit my 1.4s (75bhp) NOT 100bhp?im pretty sure ive seen people on here and in photos having 13"steelys on a 1.4s? or im a blind..thanks alot guys!

Reed Posted March 12, 2011 Report Share Posted March 12, 2011 Shouldn't be a problem on anything other than sports so what part of the wheel doesn't fit?You might need spacers to clear the caliper dependant on the final offset but otherwise you shouldn't be having issues?

Bickerton Posted March 12, 2011 Report Share Posted March 12, 2011 I think the standard 13" steelies are like ET40 so as mentioned offset will play a part in whether or not other 13's fit.I got a 75hp and it's on standard 13's atm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ell.s Posted March 12, 2011 Report Share Posted March 12, 2011 Unless someones upgraded your brakes the standard 13" steels should fit obviously the et will have changed with them being banded are the hitting the strut? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deadmetal Posted March 12, 2011 Report Share Posted March 12, 2011 The standard 1.4s steels are 13s. I have a set on my car right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Revo Posted March 12, 2011 Report Share Posted March 12, 2011 I might be the odd one out on this, but I'm pretty sure my steelies are 14s and they are standard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coxBEANS. Posted March 12, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 12, 2011 The standard 1.4s steels are 13s. I have a set on my car right now.yeah, mines the "S" not the sport.. its currently got the sport alloys on, which are 14".. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blitzerman Posted March 13, 2011 Report Share Posted March 13, 2011 Ive got the S Not the sport, unless they've put the SPORT wheels on after, because maybe they've put the SPORT brakes on then possibly, but i was led to believe unless otherwise, they S came with 13" Steels....

treblet Posted March 13, 2011 Report Share Posted March 13, 2011 The 1.4 S (not the sport) did indeed come with 13" steels.Those wheels should fit, have you actually looked at the rear while you are trying to fit them? I suspect it might be a strut fouling issue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
