7.5 x 16 all round (which is what I've got on at the mo), ET25 front and rear moves the rears out (nearer the arches) by 7mm and the fronts by 6mm. Saw Andav's car a few months ago and he's got 10mm spacers front and rear with no problems so the 7mm and 6mm should cause no issues at all. (His car also looked the tits)

No reply from the UK supplier today but will call again on Monday for a price. I'll also ask if they can do discount for multiple orders (in case anyone else is interested).

It's the 'dish' look (and the polished outer rims). Gotta have it smile

Chilli some of my wedge brothers have used the Azev A's and must say they looked the nuts !! For the rears are you going for the 16x9's deep dish ? Always thought they look great on the Chimaera, hope you post a few pics..

Hi Chappers, was planning on sticking with 7.5" all round, although I guess 9" on the back would look rather mean smile I have a nasty feeling these wheels are going to be a trifle on the expensive side!!! Still, If I went for them I'd have two sets of Estorils I could maybe sell to offset the cost scratchchin

7.5" all round, you cannot be serious, wake up Richard!

If you are shelling out for new you want at least 8s on the front and 9s on the rear.

Got some nice one`s on classifieds , new boxed ,they are a bargain ,The plan was to get them painted in silver or anthracite , it`s worked out to expensive

These are not Chinese copies like the above ,they are proper light weight track/road wheels .

Team Dynamics pro race 1.2

2x 17" 9" Rim ET(offset) 35 4x108

2x17" 7" Rim ET(offset) 25 4x108

A combination of 215/14/17 and 245/40/17 would be perfect ,or you could go up a size.

Here we go again. The suspension decisions are bad enough, now we're adding wheel widths to it frown OK, I'm up for this, the never ending quest to modify continues biggrin So, what about diameters and offsets Peter? And tyres/tyre sizes? Any idea what the wheel style choices are? The Azevs are either 7.5 or 9 scratchchin Should I be thinking about 5 stud hubs with so much rubber on the road?

Oh well, that's the 911 turbo daily down the drain for another year frown

Might be worth a call Chilliman to see what he can do scratchchin I do like a dished wheel rather than a flat face frown call me old school but I always liked the RS wheels with the polished rim these are only 6x13 but always looked wider because of the rim

I live these, in fact I bought a set off a chimaera owner, looked great on the car HOWEVER please check the centre bore size before you buy any, this guy jad fitted them with 10mm spacers as the centre hole was too small, therefore was not on the centre locater, probably be fine for average road use but I didn't fancy it! Will try and find some pics for you.

Hopefully this will work, I did also get 2 10j veeeery deep dished ones for the rear but the offset didn't let it fit.

Now I have a marmite car lol but these wheels were much better, lighter, stronger, better fit and also loads of clearance for future brake upgrades

the image ones are what I will get next year I think so I can run wider on the back. They are about £2k a set though frown
