Wheel help!!!

[GlassJaw]

I'm in the middle of a possible deal for some r26 rims but if that doesn't come off......

I've decided on black shoes for my Cup - seen loads that I'd like that are within budget (pro race 1.2s, ultraleggera's) but possible fitment issues are frustrating me.

I'd like 8x17's that fit easily - is this possible? Love the 8 fit as the way they fill the arches is beautiful.

P.S. If anyone would like to suggest any other wheels that might interest me please feel free.

The Ultraleggera size you want is

17x8
5x108 stud
ET55

Fit mine no problems with no rubbing.

Looks amazing. Cant wait to get my wheels now.

I assume you didnt need new wheel bolts etc for them to fit Mark?

You get new ones with them, I wouldn't use the standard bolts. The tapered part at the top of the thread is different.

What are they like for stone chips up the sides mark? you have any pics showing the front wheels better and how much they stick out?
Cheers

Rear quarters are fine, no major chips and no stone rash either.

I have, have a look at my first post. As for 1.2's get the offset thats closest to ET55

pro race 1.2s come in the same size as standard, 17x7.5 got them in ET45 on mine.
