They had to be 15's to go over the G60 brakes (280mm discs). I was going to get some for my mk2 when I was thinking of driving it threw the winter

Yh they would look good on both mate, I think banded would look better though Wink

Subject: Re: g60 steels Thu Dec 11, 2008 3:49 pm

should do mate, gonna go for 8'' wide i think and a bit of negative camber Wink

Subject: Re: g60 steels Thu Dec 11, 2008 11:23 pm

Thats something else I have been meaning to buy for the past 2 years lol

Some camber shims!

Go for 8.5's on the back mate, you wont need to much work to get them on if they have the right offset

Subject: Re: g60 steels Fri Dec 12, 2008 4:25 am

weller steelie's!! i want some for mine!!lol

Subject: Re: g60 steels Fri Dec 12, 2008 10:32 am

the offset will be all wrong mate cos i'm having the band just on the outside for a big dish Wink

Subject: Re: g60 steels Fri Dec 12, 2008 11:37 am

Nah it should be ok mate, the offset should be the distance from the nave plate to the back off the rim..

Correct me if im wrong mate

Subject: Re: g60 steels Fri Dec 12, 2008 2:33 pm

no you're right mate, but cos the band will be at the outside of the rim they'll stick out a lot further thats all Wink

Subject: Re: g60 steels Fri Dec 12, 2008 11:19 pm

8.5's it is then Very Happy
