craggsy 91 Posted March 27, 2010 Report Share Posted March 27, 2010 correct pcd is 5x112.....can work with adapters but will need arch work no doubt Link to post Share on other sites
bungy 2 Posted March 27, 2010 Report Share Posted March 27, 2010 Never mind the alloys, get yourself all over the engine like a "tramp on chips". Link to post Share on other sites
hvr6 88 Posted March 28, 2010 Report Share Posted March 28, 2010 would be better to put the engine in than the alloys, you'll be able to make them fit but the handling on 18s would be awful! Link to post Share on other sites
Birchy 0 Posted March 28, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 28, 2010 Would love to put the engine in but wife would have a heart attack. I had to battle to get M'lady as a toy and to change the car to that magnitude would be like.. well I may as well pack my bags...!I will stick with what I have and slowly build her up in stealth mode so the wife is failry oblivious to what Im doing. Knowing my luck she will be a typical women and know exactly what is going on!So 18s are a NO for the car, no problem. Time to move on to the next bit.... Link to post Share on other sites
bungy 2 Posted March 28, 2010 Report Share Posted March 28, 2010 They'd go nice on my mk4 tho. Link to post Share on other sites
