172 cup turinis on a 182

[col182]

as above really, will they fit? Search turned up nothing, am i right in saying they're a different offset? Only ask as there's a set going on here that i might be interested in, car is a ff non cup packed, lowered on sportlines if it makes any diff, cheers, col

 

[Fred@BTM]

yep different offset, they fit, but you will only be able to use lowering springs

 

[yorkshire_lad]

fit fine got some on my 182

 

[col182]

cool, cheers, could you tell me, will they rub at all? and will they affect the handling?

 

[Fred@BTM]

you'll actually have a wider overall track (the distance between the wheels across the axles)

it may scub a tiny bit, but only on full lock

 

[col182]

thanks, really tempted, do these differ at all (colour aside) from the trophy ones?

 

[D1CKY]

Waht about on a 172FF

 

[Fred@BTM]

they go straight on a 172 no problems

exactly the same as the trophy wheels, just a different offset and colour

 

[Fred@BTM]

[D1CKY]

Ok cheers.

Is there no scrubbing issues at all on a 172ff ?

 

[Fred@BTM]

nope

i just did a search for 172 cup wheels on a 182 and stumbled across this page, im very interested in getting a set as i am bored of my non anthracite 182 wheels - where is the best place to get them from and will they fit straight on?

Woza.

 

[Peperami]

Theres a few sets for sale on here.

Get some second hand and get fred to refurb them for you.

 

[woza]

would rather not have to refurb them - not sure how much i would get for my 182 wheels - would love to do a swap! saves all the hassle!

 

[Peperami]

And why would someone swap?

 

[Fred@BTM]

doubt you'll find any for sensible money that won't need a refurb

 

[woza]

And why would someone swap?

you never know!

 

[col182]

the turinis are on!!!...for now, gonna have them refurbed as soon as tho...am thinkin white would look good

done about 150miles with them since yesterday and have had no issues with them rubbing at all

 

[Guppy]

leave them silver imo. a subtle drop on them and it will look spot on!
white will make it look to much like christopher's fpm

 

[woza]

col - did the just fit straight on - that is a 182 right?

 

[col182]

straight on matey, no probs, and yes it's a 182 bud

 

[Day]

Do em white!
