Will They Fit

[SOOTY]

A little help please..

Does anyone know if i will get 18s on my (02) 172 Sport? im after a set of Ikon Pluss in 18" but i want to know whether or not im going to have problems??? I would rather not have to do any arch mods if poss. The car is lowered by 40ml....

Can anyone help me asap please!? im supposed to be getting these wheels today...



Many thanks

Theyll rub at a guess, 40mm is quite a big drop on a 172.

18s !! I know its your car/choice but wont 18s really kill the performance and handling?

Martin,

Me thinks you have just made my decision matey!

Going for 17s.

Good move IMO, 40 mm drop on 17s will look sweet. What rims you decided on?

i was gonna say, 18s on a 172 would kinda defeat the object of having a fast car !!

I already have OZ Super Legs, however i have sold these, they get picked up on Sat, i bought a houst and needed some cheaper ones. So im going for WolfRace Ikon plus Shadow chrome. was going for 18s but dont want to mod the body work... so think i will play it safe and stay with 17s. The legs look small i think.
