Didn't realise they done 15 x 9 wheels. Look tidy though.

Just bid 300 sobers as i was going to get mine refurbed but thought they would look the dogs instead but don't want to pay more than it would cost to refurb mine..Obviously they are worth more than a set of lattice alloys....They are nice...Maybe go a bit more.....Cheers...Ziga

They will be 8" as you measure the tyre bead seat to bead seat rather then edge of the wheel to edge of wheel.

On the 16x9's OZ's they measure 10 inches rim to rim so I would of thought they were a set of 15x8's ! But I guess you never know...

Why not offer him your wheels + cash. He could refurbish yours and sell them on and that way everyone's happy.

Just retracted my bid mate..I was thinking that i could sell mine but they need a refurb also..Plus i have 205/60/15 0n them so would need a wider tyre x 4..So you are talking nearer 900 sobs in total..Got to start watching the pennies really...Ziga

I like the 350se wheels on my car but would love a set of these OZ split rims as on the 400's etc. I think they really look the part.

Time to start saving some pennies again biggrin

Hi Jimbo...Your 450SE was fugging awesome mate..I think my diabetes is playing up as i was a bit confused earlier...If they are 15x8s then the tyres i have on mine should fit..They are 205/60/15...Or would i need a wider tyre for safety?, It would be better with say a 215 but would these rub on the arches?.......Ziga

Morning Mark, The standard for the wheels are 225/55/15 if my memory serves me right. Going to drag the old girl out this morning I will have a check for you.

Cheers Rob..I have just spoke to the tyre fitter that i use and he said they will go on but will be stretched 1.5" so i don't think i will do that, The tyres i have on there at the moment are brand new so it would be a bit expensive...Oh well maybe another time...Ziga

Mine are 225/50/15 all round - I guess these are standard sizes as I have receipts for some in 87 and 88.

Why didn't they have wider rear/smaller fronts?

I would be suprized if these were 15by9, more like 18by8 as they were the standard fit to the 290SE 400SE, the SEAC got 15by8.5 and the racing Tuscans got 16by9s

Easy to check just ask for a pic of the wheel with out the cover and look as it should be staped up.

the 16x9's measure 17x10 across the rims. You need to measure from where the rim of the tyre sits. thumbup
