[jackscup]

Hello,

Would I run into trouble when fitting 172 cup turini's ( ET38 ) on my 182?

Thanks.

If you have a 172/172Cup/182 then you can have EITHER 172 Cup or Trophy Turinis

If you have a 182Cup/182 with Cup packs/Trophy you HAVE to HAVE Trophy Turinis.

Well I run 15" Williams wheels on track which are ET37 on my Trophy so I don't see why 172 Cup wheels wouldn't work but having not tried them I'm not sure.

If you can borrow a set first I'd say it was worth a try as Trophy still change hands for decent money.

If it was me I'd get a set of 15's as the tyres are shitloads cheaper

You can run cup turinis on a 182, but the problems will come if/when you lower it, cos the lower the et the more the wheel sticks out. I am running ET 35 turinis and have no problem as long as the car is set up properly.

I have a 182 with cup packs and have 172 cup turinis. The car is lowered on sportlines. No issues whatsoever.

 

[timmyd]

It may be because the sportlines have lowered the car 30/40mm, when you get the coilovers on it, and go lower you may run in to problems, hopefully not.

I can confirm that if my wheels were 7/8mm further out they would definitely come into contact with the outer lip of the arch.
I'm on coilovers by the way.

Sportlines don't lower the car anywhere near enough to have offset issues.

 

[timmyd]

Was looking at my wheels today and agree with Da that they will rub, or take the arch off at the same time.

Edited for accuracy, ALL 182's have et45 wheels,
