Borbet A - 16 x 9

[peachers 10]

How easy are 9j Borbet A's to fit on a VR6, would they need arch mods / arches rolled?

 

Cheers,

borbet A 9j with et 15 fit on fine on mine with 205 /45 tyre , my arch has been sligtly rolled though,

i actualy have a spare pair of borbet A's 5x100 16x9 that i no longer need, that im willing to sell , you would have to buy 7.5's for the front which can be found on ebay.de in singles to make the complete set, i basicly came across a complete set of 9's localy for next to nothing and had to buy two 7.5's for the front so iv got two 9's left over doing nothing. im going to advertise them in the forsale section sometime soon, pm me if you want them .

Yeh, spotted a complete set of 9's for sale locally at a decent price and just wondered if they would bolt straight on? Am running weitec coilovers and noticed that most people run a staggered set, just wondering if that is because of clearance issues at the front with the width?

If your low and assuming they are et15 i would have thought there gonna rub especially on the front as the track is wider they will fit on but will most likely scrub at least and do they have stretch tyres ?? You will deffo need them mate

I ran brock b1s 9j all round on a valver and had to have the arches rolled on the rear and the fronts caught slightly over bumps and on tight lock and i had to run it higher than i would have liked , ill post you up a pic so you can see how they will fit

[ATTACH=CONFIG]69506[/ATTACH] this is mine with 8" all round. I ended up having to have a 10mm spacer as they fouled on the brake calliper carrier, which was a shame as they ended up sticking out a touch but I think e car carries them off. I would have preferred staggered as you have but these came along at a good price as a new set

I have gotta say I do like how yours sits with those wheels on redborbet, they make the car

damn forgot to say , that mine were on the rear only! 9j et15 have no chance with fitting on the front of a vr6 ,

Cheers bud was a bitch to drive tho im afraid it just didnt like bumps or fast sharp cornering

Yours looks just right , in my opinion now your better having them in the arches and drivable than the other way

Cheers for the advice, sounds like a staggered set may be the way to go then (either that or stick on my teledials with adapters)
