17 inch wheels with a PCD of 98 mm - 15/01/2007 22:49
Does anyone know what makes of wheels are available with PCD 98 mm and suitable for a 20VT. If you fit PCD 100 mm I'm told you need special bolts, are these the ones referred to as 'wobbly' and are they safe?
Regarding the offset I've read it needs to be correct or else it affects the steering in that if it is wrong the steering is either too light or too heavy.
Do I take it that even with wheels of the correct offset (35/40 mm?) spacers may be needed to clear the front Brembos. So when adding a spacer is that in effect increasing the offset which may be more than the recommended value for the correct steering set up.
Advice on wheel types sought. Because of the Brembo clearance problem are the deep dish type no go and only those with spokes fixed close to the rim outer edge suitable?
