Right found two wheels that i REAAAAAAAAAAALLY like...

First up:





Size: 6x14
Offset: ET33

The second one:



Size: 7.5x16
Offset: ET38

So there we have it.

Can both be fitted? What mods will I need?

*Note* I don't mind how much it costs (Within reason)
and the car will have FK Coilovers...

obviously the 14's will go on easier.
both can be done but dunno what you'd have to do to get the 7.5 16's on.

people run 7.5 x 17's but with more sensible offsets.

i like the black ones. they look like tecart porsche wheels

Doesnt really help now does it

I need to know if either will fit?

Because of the offsets of both and the fact the black are 7.5" wide

Wow they do look alike. So what mods will need to be done? Rolled arches?

All the exterior needs to be finished is:
Post '97 front bumper
Alloys
Irmscher/GSi Skirts
Coilovers
Exhaust
Bonnet (Standard because that one is knackered)
Respray (Still in Carabic Blue)

Just flare the metal then glue the plastic arch trim on over the top be enough?
