OSV 0 Posted July 17, 2006 Just after getting my Corrado I trial fitted a friends Azev As to my car for a quick look see. A classic wheel I thought they suited the Corrado well but my heart was set on BBS RS301s. Now strangely enough there is a myth that these wheels will not clear the brakes on a VR, well that may be true for 7.5s but the 8s fit with more room to spare than i've ever seen. Over the years I have received numerous pm requests for picture proof of this so these are clearly a popular choice but not often seen in 17s on a Corrado. Anyway the chance arose to buy a set recently and I couldn't resist, here is a pic proving they fit and what is more I have a 2nd full brand new unused set of 4 wheels complete with locking flush centre caps and all the wheel bolts available if anyone is interested.

Jim 2 Posted July 17, 2006 Definately a classic wheel for the Corrado.. aint many five spokers that look poop on the Rado though to be fair! :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

double-6s 0 Posted July 17, 2006 what size are those pkripper? looks like a deeper dish and 16? the ones that don't fit on vr's? I reckon the spokes on the 17's in the vr picture are right out at the edge of the rims hence the fact they fit on a vr!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah, sorry my post has nothing whatsoever to do with the 17's fitting over VR6 brakes, just put the picture up for the Azev flavour. :lol: (You are right D6, 16 - 7.5 front and 9 rear) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
