i know that if u hagle u can get the price down, but thats only if ure spending 500+

hehe i went in to look at car mats and came out with 15" urban 7's car mats, order for a zaust and springs!

expensive mats!!!

but i know most..well all the ripspeed peeps at my local so i get good deals all the time!
yesterday i almost had a kenny tv changer and headunit for 90£!!!!!!!
didnt have my wallet on me so lost out to the manager who owns a kitted 406!

but its such a small difference, it wouldnt matter??

the 35% wall hight of 225mm OR 215mm will increase the overall radius of the wheel and tyre, making the spedo read incorrectly

^^^^what i was gonna say!

NATH - Ive got et35 205/40/17's on mine and they're fine, no rubbing, full lock and handling is fine.

Surely 225 tyres will have no more affect over the speedo than 215 tyres as its the width......

i got 3 17" tornados off ma m8 for £130.its £120 for another wheel.thats wot a called a bargain

You can get offsets of a site on the net! I've been on it but canny remmber the addy :(

onyl prob is...suppliers dont give us a list of offsets etc so we cant please everyone and just give advice on wot we know :)

Yep mine should have been £1200!

sounds good mite have a butchers

packages mate

Are they doing the deal for the alloys alone or with tyres???

Auto XS is usually my first choice but with 30% off my wheels when i went to halfords i couldnt resist.

i have never spoken to anyone in ripspeed who seem to know what they were on about- my local performance car store is far better- just found out the guy who owns it carries out 2l conversions in his shed- result

:lol: It aint hard though is it!

I mean all they need is a list with cars and there offsets and there half way there :rolleyes:

Bloke i spoke to thought i wouldve been ok with et35 :! Aksed to speak to someone who knew something about cars :lol:

I might be getting some 18's tommorow if the finance goes through.

Wolfrace Icons in urban chrome :)

What a nice surprise the lad i spoke to today knew what the fuk he was on about bearing in mind i know my shit too ;)...Conversation.......

Me
Hi mate i'm after some of these.

Ripp lad
What car have you got mate??

Me
Mk4 Astra

Ripp lad
Arrr right well you will need as close to et49 as possible and these come in et40 so you should be ok..Is your car lowered??

Me
Yeah 40mm

Ripp lad
Yeah you'll be fine.

Me(the part i was not sure on! :lol:
What tyres are best 215/35/18 or 225/35/18??

Ripp lad
225 are the best bet mate as the 215 will throw yopur speedo out and feel a bit wierd!

Me
Sound! See you tommorow :)

Jobs a good un :)
