wheels

Any one know if its possible for me to change my ds3 from 4 studs to a 5stud.. sure asked this before but im getting on a bit and memory has gone..

And what is all this off set and stuff about i am crap when it comes to this stuff

[Chris_Blue]

You can do anything for a price.. but itll be pricey
Offset is how far the wheel sits in (Or out) on the wheel hub
Standard for the DS3 Bellone is 25 offset, but Ive had 15 offset which is good as it pushes the wheel another centimetre away from the hub
Higher offset, say 40, will push the wheel intop the hub, and as the wheel turns, it may hit the brake caliper of other stuff

How wide wheels can i put on???

[Chris_Blue]

As wide as those that wont touch your wheel arch, think someone on here went to 9.5j
or when you are on full lock dont touch the inside frame/chassis

[gaz_dsport]

The wheels i am looking at are 7.5j front and 8j rear... so i shoukd be fine then haha

[Chris_Blue]

Would think so as Zack went up to 9.5j
May need specific size tyres though, and spacers too

If theyre used wheels, why not try them on- I do before I commit to buy
Full lock is where trouble would occur if any does
Are you lowered?

[gaz_dsport]

I am 45mm lowered.. and they will be brand new wheels 3sdm 0.6s they 8j or 8.5j i think on an 18inch wheel

[Chris_Blue]

With an 18 inch wheel, depends what tyres you are on, but being 45 mm lowered too, it could well be a tight squeeze
Would try the wheels first before you commit (Full lock)
Sounds fab tho :-)

Would think so as Zack went up to 9.5j

Ahem... 10J thankyou very much

[Chris_Blue]

Ahem... 10J thankyou very much

I stand corrected- wasn't far away tho :snowy0:
