Guys,
Has anyone swapped their tt alloys for GT2 ones.
Ive been thinking about changing mine for some time but the GT2 rims are 1/2" wider up front and 1" at the rear and the rubber is 10mm and 20mm wider respectively.
Would they fit straight on without rubbing or do i need spacers or something.
Oh and if so has anyone got a spare set they want to sell?

Wheels fit straight on but there are two problems:

1. GT2 wheels are heavier than Turbo wheels (which have hollowspokes), so most people who change wheels got for lighter aftermarket wheels instead.

2. The GT2 has the wheelarches rolled at the factory. If you fit GT2 tyres they might rub the arches and therefore might need the arches rolling as well.
