Any ideas please folks?
I'm in the throws of selling my 18" Sagaris alloys and was just wondering what they will fit?
Will they fit Tuscan, Cerb, Tamora etc

I'm pretty sure all the stud pattern would be the same, but I'm not too sure about off-sets.

Cheers,
Lee.

Will you not keep your wheels in case you want to go on the track? What rims are you putting in their place I am going to change mine as well for 19's.

Sorry I have not been much help on your question, I thought all spiders were the same offsets but I am probually being naive.

TVR power have some nice 19's.
Basically they are Team Dynamics "Jade R" - the same as Kiefh has on his red Sag.
Tyres will be over the grand mark which shocked me a little, but should be well worth it....

Old wheels will be sold to try and offset the cost a little.

As far as I'm aware, the spiders come with different offsets but I'm not sure what offset is fitted to front and rear of which car...

Didn't see you out playing earlier today teacher

I am going for something Jap on my corners as I want to lighten the un-suspended weight of the car but will keep my spiders. still somehow want to change my rear calipers first as they look lost in 19" wheels (will also lightent he corners from the present rotors.

It would have been too much work to come today in the end, I have a new rad turning up in the week and I would have had got my present leaking one filled first.

I hope today went ok?

Me to, I struggle to comprehend how Tvr could use these same rear calipers on almost the entire model range apart from the Cerb (I think) I am thinking of looking for an alternative but what? Would it mess the bias up? Has anyone done this ears

Could it be that they are more than adequate for the purpose intended?

Fair point, but they look like Dog st.

They look fine when they're kept clean, just a bit of a chore getting the dremel out to polish the rear calipers every weekend!!

They look like crap especially when you have 19's on as they are so visable. The cerb had the handbrake fitted into the rotor bell so thats why they are the only exception.

You can buy four posts with a handbrake attachment but I am just trying to sort out some other bits. YOu put a brake bias control in as well to balance it up though I am thinking six pots on the front so it should balance it up.

I have painted my rear calipers black to try and make them disapear a little for now.

Lee sorry your thread has been high jacked.
