Mawrick 0 Posted May 10, 2010 Anyone know if the following Borbet T will fit fine on a corrado - no rubbing etc.... 7,5x16 et35 + 9x16 et 30 (and will it fit over the VR6 brakes)?. Anyone got a pic of them fitted on the corrado would also be nice :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim 2 Posted May 10, 2010 Look good on a Corrado I think :) They were 9x16 all round, ET15... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mawrick 0 Posted May 10, 2010 Looks good - any idea if the ones I listet would fit ? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
eugopnosaj 0 Posted May 10, 2010 Look good on a Corrado I think :) They were 9x16 all round, ET15... Sorry to hijack slightly, are these with standard arches? Sorry im just trying to work out my spacing, if you've got 9in ET15 the rear what would that equate to with 7in wheels to get the same stance? ET10?

Jim 2 Posted May 10, 2010 The rear arches have been rolled :( Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mawrick 0 Posted May 12, 2010 bumping this to see if anyone know if they will fit without rubbing and without spacers?. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mawrick 0 Posted May 29, 2010 hmm, no one??? Any tips apreciated. even though I just went ahead and bought the suckers :) - maybe I end up with 4 spare wheels.......lol Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mawrick 0 Posted June 26, 2010 Look good on a Corrado I think :) They were 9x16 all round, ET15... Happen to know what size tires where on this ?. I'm thinking of 225 on the 9" in the rear - but unsure if it will work.......:( Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim 2 Posted June 26, 2010 I *think* (but don't hold me to this) they were 205/45/16's.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kee 0 Posted June 26, 2010 i have 215/45 on my 9" rears, with no rubbing and 20mm spacers lol, unsure on the et of my brock b2's though Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Abdul 0 Posted June 26, 2010 Ok I'm not defo on this but I reckon the et30 will hit your stuts and the widest tyre u can really run is a 215/35 and even then it'll probably scrub. U need to roll the rears tbh. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mawrick 0 Posted June 26, 2010 ended up going with 215/40/16 michelin all around - was advised someone else had the exact same rims without any trouble - might have to do some spacing though.... I guess time will tell - if not I slam em on my Passat....:) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
russed99 0 Posted July 19, 2010 I've resurrected this thread as i'm looking at some borbet t's atm. They are 16x7.5, 4x100 and the offset is et20. The tyres are 205/45/16. I know the stud pattern is correct but will they fit my valver with no spacers or rubbing on lock etc. My car is lowered 40mm. Thanks guys. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mawrick 0 Posted August 14, 2010 Got some tires fitted to the rims - one shop had to give up on getting air in the 215's on the 9" - but luckily someone only dealing with tires where able to help me out, so hopefully get to test fit them during the coming week :) Must say I like the look of the 215's on the 9" :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
awigman 0 Posted August 15, 2010 Iv got some Borbet T's on mine at the mo. The fronts are 7.5x16 and obviously have no rubbing issues. I did have some 9x16 et 30 with 215/40 on the rear which needed 20mm spacers as they rubbed on the inside of the rim. I removed them tho cause it's dropped 40mm with no arch work done so they shredded the tyres on the archs every bump i went over. 2.8l 24v Climatronic system.pdf29102009517.jpg[/attachment:v2sy1r31] Im now running 7.5 on the rear aswell but with spacers to fill the archs a little. borbet t.jpg[/attachment:v2sy1r31] Fancy a change tho so may put all 6 wheels up for sale soon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mawrick 0 Posted August 15, 2010 ok, but do you reckon it will work with 20mm spacers - if I'm not dropping that much ? Or will it be trouble getting it to clear anyway?. Btw noticed yours is a 4 stud - AFAIK there is difference between the G60's and the VR6's in clearance..... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
awigman 0 Posted August 15, 2010 Yes they will fit but you may still get some scrubbing if cornering hard or when going over bumps in the road. Unfortunatly like me, i think you will find you have to get your archs rolled. I know there is a slight difference between VR6's and G60/Valvers in regards to clearence but someone else will have to help you out there! :shrug: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mawrick 0 Posted August 17, 2010 I'v now fitted them on my C. No trouble with them - my C sits on KW V1 which is quite "slim" so that might be the reason why it's working alright. Also haven't done all the height adjustments at the moment, so it sits a bit to high - but doesn't look like I will have any trouble with it as long as I'm not lowering it to much.......

Mawrick 0 Posted August 17, 2010 :worthless: Will fix it - the car needs a wash first - and have to adjust the height a bit I think ;) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
