Help with alloy sizes and offset.

[Stotty]

Hey.

I have a 1.2 Twingo but i am getting a 133 in january.
I really like euro style alloys so i was looking at getting these.

There Borbet A's they are 7.5x16 4x100 ET20 CB 64.1

Will these fit and if not what would i have to do to make them haha

Interesting choice in rims. I like it when someone try's something different

So bsically i would have to get them in 15's rather than 16's or they would catch.

The center bore will fit both cars with a spigot ring.
Other than that, it's a guess wether they would fit. They would probably fit the 1.2 easier than the RS because the standard offset isn't as big

I think Ollie is the only person to go down the euro stance look on the RS133, so theres not much to compare against. Being 7.5 inch wide, they will stick out a bit more (1/4 inch) than Ollies which are 7x15 ET20.

I guess wou would be going for the slammed look with a strech and tolerate some rubbing.

I might experiment as well with some rims... dunno yet.

Keep the OZ's for everyday use or some trackdays, w/e

And get some stancewheels for epic pictures

For example:

3SDM 0.01

Would look killer but they're very wide..

ET20 may not fit the RS.

What a bummer ypu can get them in 15's.
If i get 16's it meens extended arches proberly.

The wheel height shouldn't make any difference, as you pick a tyre to suit, and bring the rolling radius back to original spec.

ET20 may not fit the RS.

I have 7x15 et20's

Edit. Neil already said.

I can only compare to the standard wheels and also my speedlines. Having something closer, do you think they would work with a normal sized tyre/profile and where are they likely to rub?... What about 7.5 ET20 which would have a bit more poke.

If you went for a 175/50 tyre on the 7.5 ET20 I couldn't see there being too much issue . Although saying the they will poke out the arch 7-10mm but the tyre stretch will mean the tread is inside the arch. A ET20 7J is straight flush with the arch.

For sure you will be rubbing on full lock tho inside the arch . I'm just missing on rubbing now with a 7J with a 165 tyre.
