Now do i go for it as they are 17" don't think they look to bad on a classic but still not sure so fire away with what you think.

Could see if Worzel can do something in photo shop on yours so we can have a look.

The were up for £150 but have seen two other sets go on e-bay for £80-£100 after i found them.

Found these now 7jx18 et51 running 225/40's said they came off a classic but asking the people in the know if with that offset will they clear the 4-pots ok

[Scott.T]

if they came off a classic they must be the correct PCD. Do you know what year classic
I expect they will clear the four-pots looking at the spoke design

it's not just the offset that will effect it but the thickness/depth of the spokes.

ET51 should be fine, mine are ET51

the only comment would be that the 40 section is too tall, you need 35's on 18's When your speedo reads 60mph you will actually be doing 62.5mph
with 35's When your speedo reads 60mph you will actually be doing 60.2mph

there may also be arch clearanceissues on the 40's

I have a nice new set of Falken 225/35x18 in the shed

[Scooby Wez]

Thanks Scott he did say in his e-mail now i have looked at it again that they had been on a 52 plate as well so it would of had 4-pots How much do they rub with the 40 profile,the other worry is at standard ride height will they make it look like a monster truck.

[Scott.T]

I ran mine without lowering for quie a while.
All the images of my wheels I posted on your thread were before I lowered.

look nice m8
do wot u think looks nice on your car .
