16'' Et45? ? ?

[Middo]

im interested in some 16'' wheels, but they only come in et45. will these be alright on a dymanique (2003) on coilovers?

dont want to pursue it if they wont fit.

The wrong offset can cause rubbing problems when the suspension is compressed or the wheel is turned. Offset affects the steering geometry, scrub radius, possibly leading to problems with torque steer or, Offset also affects the suspension's motion ratio, which directly determines the effective spring and damper rates.

lol - its good that i can also get them in et40 then

(checked on the manufacturers website btw)

 

[V1NNY]

cant you get them in 37 then if they do 40 and 45? what wheels are they out of curiosity?

 

[Middo]

not saying

but they come in 40, 45 and 48 in the 16''

they're a bit euro stylee

 

[V1NNY]

When you planing on getting them, did you come to the mids meet? i think i remember seeing your car there

 

[Middo]

shows what an impression i made. i was there with a black mk2 ph2 dymanique. black wheels, carbon bonnet, v6 spoiler and 172 rear end.

 

[V1NNY]

Didnt really get chance to see who was in what as people turned up at different times and it was dark, but yeah i thought i saw ya, liked the carbon bonnet, didnt see the spoiler though

 

[Middo]

yeah we got there a little later than everyone else (me makavelli and alex in the focus) so you'd all gone in the pub

 

[V1NNY]

Yeah think we wnt in at half past, how much was the bonnet? looked really smart, did you have a viper feed behind the front bumper, red iirc

 

[Middo]

my bonnet cost be bout 100 quid from gsmgregg, and he hepled me fit it (pain in the arse) my viper feed is behind the bumper, quite like it there, everyone knows you have one then lol.
