Audi Style rims on a Corrado?

[thom5r 0]

I'm pretty new here and I'm not sure if this is sacrilege but do any members here have Audi RS4 style wheels on their Corrado?

This sort of thing: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/17-RS8-Style-Allo ... 1977wt_939

 

Will 17"s fit okay?

Those won't fit without modification, they are PCD 112, Corrados are 100. 17" will fit though, 5x100 for VR6, 4x100 for the rest.

It does say 100/112 so does that not mean they'll fit both?

 

I won't get scrubbing issue or anything will I? Car's not lowered.

17"s do fit. you can also fit 312mm brakes under them. :D

I can't see where it says 100/112. Just has 5x112 from what I can see, although I would expect the seller will be able to sell you some that are 5x100.

 

 

Personally I wouldn't put cheap wheels on a car, but you pays your money and takes your choice!

A lot of people wouldn't class £300 as cheap wheels :)

I get the feeling I'd need it lowered to stop it looking like an off-roader!

But yeah I like those last few pics.

[big ben 10]

will definately need lowering in my opinion, but the corrado does pull them off

Hmmm! Naw. Theyre too big. Looks as if it should have a team of horses in front and a tribe of Indians chasing it firing arrows and things.

17 inch would definitely be big enough for me.

Thanks for your help. It's a very close call between old school light-weight BBS rims or modern Audi style.

Go for the BBS, putting heavy replica wheels on will ruin just about everything with the ride/handling etc! The lighter the wheels the better, especially with 17's as the corrado doesn't really like them and tends to tramline more, much better with lightweight 17's though.

Only kidding, mods :salute:

Used to be Kevhaywires, then Dinkus', then mine. Haywire may be able to answer that i'm sure. They've got rainsports on them so a good tyre too. Dont want too much, say £250?

[big ben 10]

i might buy them actually, but for my golf gti, think they would look good on it, let me sleep on it :D
