Aftermarket wheels

[spursmaddave]

My missus is after some aftermarket wheels for her DS3, I saw these and just phoned up to ask about them



Was told I will require 20mm spacers all round as citroen wheels have a very low offset, is this correct?

[Gazski66]

Quite possibly, the offset for Bellones i think is ET25, have you had a look at this site-http://www.rimstyle.com/

This is where i got mine from

Try get wheels with same offset, so if you use 20mm spacers, they will push the wheels out that far giving a meatier/meaner look?
Bellones Offset is ET25 as Gaz said
BTW They are nice tho

[spursmaddave]

Thanks guys yeah just found the info, the ones she likes are ET45 so would need 20mm spacers just to sit as the OEM ones do, will keep searching!

One of my sets of aftermarkets (Team Dynamics Black Pro-Race 3's) have an ET of 15, and they fit OK
Add a slightly "Beefie" look. :-)

Well can't find any others that she likes so it will be the wheels in the pictures, might go for slightly bigger spaces than 20mm, maybe 30mm rear / 25mm front

Yes, I quite like the dotz ones -



She isn't so sure...

A better make i would say but at the end of the day its what she is happy with

Be careful bout how wide you take spacers- puts a lot of pressure on the hub
Wouldnt go above 20mm me, and havent even done that yet

I ran 30/25 spacers on my 350z for 40k miles, no problem, but I do take your point

Yes talking her round with that argument.... not a lot in it price wise once you add in spacers, she is now asking why the spacers are so expensive :lol:

I think it will be the dotz :teeth:

Happy wheel searching

[spursmaddave]

As long as they don't look as nice as my wheels I don't mind :lol:
