need to borrow some hubs w/wheels

[cup-sy]

Hi guys, I've decided to undergo the task of refurbing my own turinis. I know, I know - take it to a specialist, but I like the personal satisfaction of doing it myself, not to include the fact I could use the £200 it cost to refurb the wheels.

That being said I've read the guide and it seems I can do it myself, however since I own a 172 cup, it came with no spare tyre.

So what I'm asking the forum community is if they possibly have some wheels/rims 15" or 16" lying around I'd like to borrow them and if it came down to it pay you monthly for the hire of the hubs. Unforetunately due to work, school, family life I wouldn't be able to do it as according the the guide. It'd have to be done over the weekend only, so possibly take a month or two.

So let me know, I live in Billericay Essex and am willing to collect and drop them off when I'm done with them. Can anyone hook me up?

Sod it, I'm goign to try to find some cheap ones on ebay, can anyone tell me if these being 185/60/15r will fit my cup? The only thing I'm worried about is the 60 diameter possibly rubbing, can anyone confirm 60 diameter will be okay?

I presume what you are meaning by hubs is steel wheels? Hubs hold your shocks, brakes, TRE etc...

 

[cup-sy]

correct, sorry, steels I meant.

Thanks being said:

Will 185/60/15r will fit my cup? Thinking about buying a spare and just refurbing one by one.
