Blue_Joe 0 Posted September 30, 2005 Not heard of the make before but the price is ok, I paid £500 for mine brand new without tyres! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GIXXERUK 0 Posted September 30, 2005 Blue_Joe, that seem mighty cheap for new , where and are they still available ? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Blue_Joe 0 Posted September 30, 2005 Very diffcult to get hold of as Millie aren't making them at the moment. And yes I got a very good deal, mainly due to the fact that the actual dealer didn't do anything as I couldn't buy them direct from Millie but I did arrange the sale as I stated earlier and Millie sent the wheels direct to me, I just had to pay for them via a dealer so he just got the money and therefore did them cheap! We all love getting money for nothing - and the chips for free!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lamwagon 0 Posted January 15, 2006 toffeerado did u have to pull the arches, ive got a set of boxter s wheels 17"x7" front and 17"x9" rear, how hard do you fink they well be to fit cheers Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
corradophil 3 Posted February 27, 2006 Where is the best place to buy VW to Porsche wheel adapters? Should I insist on H & R, are FK ones fine? I've also found some other ones at £149 per set IIRC which say they are TUV approved. Not sure if they come with bolts though, I'd imagine they have the bolts to attach them to the hub, but not sure about the wheel bolts. I have 6x16 fronts and 8x16 rears, all 4 wheels are ET 52. Anyone got any photos of 205/45 16 tyres on wheels of this size, I'm really not fussed about getting that 'stretched' look everyone loves at the moment, but would like to have a look to see how this size tyre will fit. Any recommendations for places to buy centre caps for design 90s? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pau1 0 Posted February 27, 2006 toffeerado did u have to pull the arches, ive got a set of boxter s wheels 17"x7" front and 17"x9" rear, how hard do you fink they well be to fit lamwagon, I used to run with Porsche Cup1's with 9 x 17's on the rear. You will get rubbing im afraid, not much, but enough to slow you down through most exciting corners. I stretched on 215's onto the 9's aswell. You'll need to pull the arches to fit them properly. Or to have your car nice and low. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

corradophil 3 Posted March 1, 2006 PHIL i just picked up a set of fk hub adaptors look pretty good to me, dnt no about the rest. Where did you buy them, how much and did they come with bolts to attach the adapters to the hubs and bolts to attach the wheels to the adapters?

RADO.001 0 Posted March 30, 2006 this seems like the rite place to ask this, i really want to fit a set of D90's on my vr6 (7x16 or 8x18 all round) what spacers/adaptors if any will i need and will i have any rubbing problems with a 50mm drop on FK highsport coilovers? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Riley 0 Posted March 30, 2006 if you stick with 195/45 tyres then you can choose between 20mm/25mm spacers 8) id go with the 25mm all round on 8x16's,and definately 25mm on 7x16's... Neil. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
