Still trying to figure out what to go for with the rims herman, I've a few options to look into. These are not staying on but going to look into getting them altered in the future aswell.

ANDY ABBOTT Posted June 8, 2020 Author Share Posted June 8, 2020 Paid for the wheels last Wednesday on ebay. The seller has not been intouch since regarding postage of them. I've messaged 3 times with no reply, so I may have been scammed. Time will tell 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRealExile Posted June 8, 2020 Share Posted June 8, 2020 If you have done Paypal or Credit Card you should get your £ back worst case, was looking forward to seeing the wheels on so fingers crossed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will have to look into it further in due course. Ebay wont allow me to open a case till the 10th.

®evo03 Posted June 9, 2020 Share Posted June 9, 2020 One thing, you will get it worked out hopefully if you have a ebay accont and paypal. Weird why you cant open a case. I always get a phone number for big purchases, or at least get an address, to send in the heavies if needed! Anyway hopefully you get your funds back, and most importantly get a set of wheels sorted.

ANDY ABBOTT Posted June 9, 2020 Author Share Posted June 9, 2020 Well the wheels arrived today out if the blue. Still no contact made by the seller,he didn't even mark them as dispatched. Strange way of doing business to say the least, but atleast they have arrived. They are now in the tyre shop for some new boots. 235 fronts and 285 rears 😳 Project images are available to Club Members Only, Click to become an OMOC Member.

H-400 Posted June 9, 2020 Share Posted June 9, 2020 Great news, but yes not a normal way of doing bussines. Curious for the pics . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ANDY ABBOTT Posted June 9, 2020 Author Share Posted June 9, 2020 Was hoping for 235/40 on the fronts and 285/40 on the rears but looking at the specs here, it dont look like that's an option. Anyone got 10j Rim's fitted ? What tyre sizes are you running on them ? Project images are available to Club Members Only, Click to become an OMOC Member.

Jessopia74 Posted June 10, 2020 Share Posted June 10, 2020 (edited) Usually you can go to same width(maximum), you might need to play about with tyre pressures to keep the contact point flat, but 285 easily be doable at 40% profile.

It's the fronts I'm more concerned about mate. Didn't really want to go as wide as 255 on front. But I think 235 will be stretched 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But you are right, they will need to be stretched to fit, for a track car will not be great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ANDY ABBOTT Posted June 10, 2020 Author Share Posted June 10, 2020 This is with 235 on the fronts. Going to get a smaller profile.
