Karl_Mac_ Posted April 7, 2014 Report Share Posted April 7, 2014 Evening chaps. Had to scrap plans to put 928 wheels on, so going for the budget option of some A3 6x15 pepperpots. I have -40mm lowering springs on and plan to run a 195/45 tyre. Is this likely to cause problems? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philplop Posted April 7, 2014 Report Share Posted April 7, 2014 Very possibly. They're et38 if I remember correctly, so by the time you've added te adapters to convert from 5x100 then they might be too pokey. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silver! Posted April 8, 2014 Report Share Posted April 8, 2014 They are only 6", so you will need to go down to 165 to get any stretch.I have a set for my winter tyres on the Dune, with 185\60 tyres and there is a curved sidewall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice flat sidewall is what I'm after. I wouldn't have thought 6 (call it 7 with adaptors) would cause any rubbing issues on standard arches at -40mm. The first reply has made me doubt myself now.
