Question

Title says it all really!

My MY98 has got the 4 pots, the Cibies will be fitted next month, and I'm thinking of some 17 inch wheels - I like the ones on the RB5 (but in silver!!)

Rang a couple of dealers: "Sorry sir, can only sell them with an RB5 VIN"!

Does anyone know if these are available anywhere else with the correct offset?

Cheers,
Steve

The Speedlines on an RB5 are ST2's but I'm afraid I don't know if they are available or not.
I would be interested to know as I quite like them as well.

Thanks AR, if I get any info I'll pass it on.

BTW, I've reposted this in Wheels, Tyres and Brakes where it should have been originally if I hadn't posted it here like a klutz! :0

Have a look at the string there as there's some more info on RB5 wheels.

Cheers,
Steve (aka "fumble fingers"!)

Hi Happy

You're right, they are Chrono type, but chatting to the service manager at my dealership last night he explained that the RB5 wheels have a greater dish to the spokes from those available normally.

Apparently this is why the RB5 wheels clear 4 pots, but 'normal' 17 inch Chronos won't!

Just my luck!

BTW, I'm working in Swindon at the mo so if you see a nut in a DGM MY98 saloon waving at you, it might be me!

Cheers,
Steve
