i had 7.5" x 16" ET45 mille miglia actions and they did rub at the back lowered 40mm, but only occasionally and i only had minor arch work done.

If u bensd the metal some and get busy with the grinder you will be ok.

I've got bk166 7x16 et45. if you like the look of any bk rims then let me know.

no problems at all

i chose falken ze512 tyres cos they angle inwards abit more giving it less chance of rubbing. avoid federals cos the stick out loads past the edge of the rim :)

Which wheels you getting then dave before i go getting anything:lol:

ne1 like to chip in with somit?

u get ne major probs with urs ?

yeah soz forgot bout that :lol:


its got -40mm g-max springs (but theyre shite so it could be anything from 30-50mm

I reckon they might fit... You got quote a good offset there too.

i have 7.5 x17" et 45 on my sxi

also taken metal lip of rears my front s r cool never had any trouble only arch that used to be a prob was pass rear now ive debolted n grinded lip away dont get ne bother with it

arches r totally debolted n there appears to be sum room under there i mean its only half an inch sounds crazy cos its such a small diff but i realise it makes the diff too

45 offset fella?

In fact, what offset will they be, you might squeeze them in if you get your rear arches rolled...

Nope 'fraid not mate :(

I had this problem when looking for 16's - hardly any wheel companys make them in ET45/49 and 7" wide...

16 x 7.5 " alloys for my corsa?
im down 60mm
just thought maybe with em being 16's the extra half inch width shud be okay?

opinions pls? :thumbs:
