Damos Member 14 Member For: 13y 26d Gender: Male Location: Sydney Posted 27/02/12 05:38 AM Share Posted 27/02/12 05:38 AM (edited) Hey Guys,So I need a new set of wheels for my 2005 ba mkii. I only replaced the front tyres 3 weeks ago so want to be able to put them on the new wheels. The rears are gone so can be whatever.Front tyres are 235/40/18. What 18" wheel sizes will work with this?Would it be cheapest to find some wheels online then go to the tyre shop to get the 2 new tyres/fitting?Any suggestions on decent priced wheels that would suit a dark purple car?Sorry this is all a bit new to me.Thanks in advance!Damo Edited 27/02/12 05:40 AM by Damos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Worm A much better forum Silver Donating Members 3,808 Member For: 16y 6m 23d Gender: Male Location: Victoria Posted 27/02/12 09:16 AM Share Posted 27/02/12 09:16 AM Sell your old rims. Don't keep them juSt because of tyres...Verde KAos in chrome lip and black center or full chrome would look awesome. 20x8.5 with nice dish all round and legal.Look in Taleb Tyres in the sponsors area and contact them for a price.
