BBS RS

Right, i've seen these wheels for sale and wondered if they'll fit mk1 gti cab without modding the arches: bbs rs070 7.5,8x15" :?

what does the 070 bit mean? also can i put 195/45/15s on ?

cheers

The 070 bit is the model number of the wheel.  Should look like this:


RS001's are the money fetchers I think!

195/45/15's will fit.

As for arch clearance… :dontknow:
Just ensure that they are 4 stud (PCD 4x100) and that the offset is between about ET25 and ET38. If the number is any lower, you're going to have serious arch clearance issues and if it is higher, then you may find the tire rubbing on your struts (Can be cured with spacers…).

top man al   :wink:

thanks alot

i think they look nice…

There ya go!

What are the critical dimensions on yours Andrew?

yeah they look cool, don't they?  

got some on the cab at the minute but only 6.5 wide with colour coded centres.  To refurb these and get deeper rims and new bolts will cost the same as buying some already done! go figure :?

so thought i'd buy some and then sell mine?

i would love to tell you the dimensions, but my car is still away getting an engine rebuild.  I know it will be worth it in the long run, but do they seriously have to take sooooooo long!

P.S. i have just got my 9-spokes refurbished and they look top notch. Lovely set of winter wheels!
