All,

Hoping someone can help me out here, I saw a Griff a while ago with the Raceline wheels (same design as 4.5 cerbies), what I wanted to know was the sizes (looked like 17" and 18&quotwink as what are the widths, tyres and offsets and can anyone recommend a good supplier.

The second item is road based suspension, about £500, would would people recommend for renewing original stuff.

Cheers

Hi,
Unfortunatly RL7's are no longer produced. The only way to fit them to your Griff is to fit a set of five stud hubs and get a secondhand set from a Cerbera. They are 17' front and back. Have a look at Compomotive MO Wheels they are similar. There are lots of threads about what shocks to use, I used Protechs supplied by Trackcar solutions. Very Very good!!!
Cheers

Wot, more north than 'ere? biggrin Drop me a mail or gimme a bell.


Back on topic.... The MO's are lovely and you can get a 265/18 ZR18 under the back and at least a 215/40 ZR17 under the front... Which leaves room for huge brakes biggrin

If you want to do the 5 stud conversion in order to fit the racelines,then you'll find that the cerbies 18"x9 rims are ideal for the rear,as they are ET40 which is spot on for the Griff,particularly if you want to fit 265 tyresbiggrin. It's just the additional cost of the 5 stud conversion thats the drawback!
