n3p 3 Posted November 19, 2012 :lol: looks like it! My first time hosting christmas dinner this year too! I'm really hoping these are genuine, can anyone confirm? Not sure about the 225/45/17 rubber, might be a tight squeeze. Will give me a chance to finally fit my KW V2s anyway! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

OSV 0 Posted November 19, 2012 (edited) Tyres are far too big for a Corrado, I would consider taking the tyres off you for the right price Edited November 19, 2012 by OSV Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

n3p 3 Posted November 19, 2012 Good man and a bargain at £650 :thumbleft: Thanks for finding them in the first place! I gave up looking for these a long time ago! Not ta on the RCs lol, I also have some RS's being rebuilt but waiting on stainless dishes so it's a bit of a BBS overload 8) OSV, they need to go anyway so I'll check the condition and let you know - probably for post + beer tokens. Have to look into what tyres to get...205/40/17 perhaps? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OSV 0 Posted November 19, 2012 Thanks keep me posted please Gareth Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BILLCOR 1 Posted November 20, 2012 I have 205/40 on the front and 225/35 on the back :thumbleft: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
n3p 3 Posted November 20, 2012 Cheers! Same wheels? What are the 225/35s like on the back? I was thinking maybe 215s, unsure of profile though :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BILLCOR 1 Posted November 20, 2012 Cheers! Same wheels? What are the 225/35s like on the back? I was thinking maybe 215s, unsure of profile though :) Yes, same wheels, do you think for a minute I would have posted the link up if I didn't already have a set, I did consider buying them, but then that would just be greedy The 225/35s are perfect, no scrubbing at all, I have had all four arches rolled, but I did try them before that and they were fine, the width of the tyre compensates for the lower profile, giving you pretty much the same rolling radius as the fronts Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I guess I'll need to get my arches rolled then, how low have you gone? Nick Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OSV 0 Posted November 20, 2012 (edited) If you run 205/40 all round you won't need to touch your arches. I had them on my car and they fit and look fine. Edited November 20, 2012 by OSV Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BILLCOR 1 Posted November 20, 2012 (edited) As Gareth says, the 205/40s are fine all round, my rims came with the tyres and they are fine on my car, no point spending money if its not needed Heres a few pics of mine >> http://the-corrado.net/showthread.php?27522-Mincy-no-more-Few-Pics-Sept-12/page11 Edited November 20, 2012 by BILLCOR Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
n3p 3 Posted November 21, 2012 Both look great on the CH's! Think I made the right choice :) Just checked the tracking, really hoping sods law isn't going to enforce itself upon me this time. Where the smeg is the 4th item! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim 1 Posted November 21, 2012 Erk - hopefully that's just a glitch and they all show up. Besides, being sent by tracked courier, will the item be insured for a replacement if it has gone MIA? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
n3p 3 Posted November 21, 2012 Think it was a glitch, as I have just been informed that the wheels arrived! :nuts: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
