Will these 18"s fit on a VII ?

[jackal2513]

these are 18 x 8's that were on an RS450 (see pics below)

ive been offered them for sale (they've only been used for 25 miles, same goes for teh Dunlop slicks). I have 2 questions:

1) will they fit on a VII ?

2) any ideas of tyre size for 18" and how much ex-touring car slicks will be in that size ?

Will let you know when they arrive - i am getting 40 sets :D

They are Compomotive MO's, I have them on my E6 (8x18in ET35, standard E6 wheels are 7.5x17in ET38). Should fit on you E7 without a problem as advevo says.

They are slightly heavier than the standard wheels so unsprung weight will increase (from memory they are about 14kg, std E6 wheels are about 10kg), bloody easy to clean though! Cost about £130 to £200 each new depending where you go, Co-ordsport are quite cheap for them though (or were, don't know now).

As for tyres then 225/40R18 or 235/40R18 will fit (225 the prefered option, for me anyway. Bear in mind standard E7 tyres are 235's). A lot of people run Evos with 18's and slicks on trackdays so I assume there is plenty of rubber about for them.

[jackal2513]

thanks guys - looks liek i'll go any buy them

mind you cos they're are more rallytype wheels and could go well with a black car they might end up being my road wheel and i'll keep the standard e7 rim as track rim.

Jackal,

If you get these fitted could you post some pics? I'm thinking of putting 18s on my black E7 but not sure how they would look.

Reims96 - 40 sets at £120 for 4 comes to £4800 :D
No wonder your petrol is so bloody expensive ;)

[advevo]

light rims are less strong

compomotive are rally wheels are a bit heavier but a lot stronger

so it depends what youre doing with youre car. if you want strong light one get magnesium wheels they cost a fortune but they are strong and light.

antsevo the wheels you have i already have seen broken ones. if you use them hard on track for road use no problems

i want strong wheels and don t wanna get an extra morgage on my house to pay them so compomotive for me and i really like the shape of the 18 inch compomotive wheel it looks brutal and nice to clean and they are strong.

does MO´s commopotive cost 130 libres in Co-ordsport??? In 8X18, the same wheels that are in the photo????

Tell me that is true, that I bought them tomorrow :D

Bye

[Trev-R]

Just ordered a set of MO 6 spoke in white with the new Eagle F1 GSD3 tyres directly from Compomotive. They undercut my cheapest quote by £50. Because of their design I am having to buy their own locking nuts.

Looking forward to getting them. I'll post a pic...

Ordered them cos I thought they looked nice in the pics posted at the start of this thread.;) ;)

[jackal2513]

trevor do you mind me asking waht you paid for the wheels and tyres



cheers

Jackal,

I thought you were requesting on how a white wheel would look on a black E7.. well here you are..

Regards,

[evowilly]

This car has Spanish plates, where have you found this photo?? :confused:

bye

[lancerevoclub]

The car was temporary fitted with Spanish plates I guess till its registration. Although registration of cars with Spanish plates had problems to get the car running legally in Belgium.

Regards,

[evowilly]

OK, thanks. So it comes from Spain, isn´t it?

Bye

[Claudius]

A lot of the LHD cars come from Spain; a lot come from Germany, very few from Italy (more expensive) and some come from Xtreme :)

[evowilly]

The reason that they come from Spain is that there is no ralliart France or Ralliart belgium, isn´t it?

But I don´t undertand why they have the plates fitted, they aren´t new??
Here in Spain there aren´t a lot of Evos, almost it´s difficult to see them :p

bye

[advevo]

claude get those tits out off my way

i am jumping up and down on my women everytime i see youre pic:)

lovely:D

That is so that you do not get stopped or followed every time you drive by a policeman. :rolleyes:

The cars are new when you buy them, then after a while, they arent anymore :)

I hope this animated gif will make my posts more interesting ;) :D

Since having seen those airbags I have to say "Keep on posting"!:D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D

[evowilly]

Claudius, very funny, evodick:D

I mean that it´s more difficult to see an Evo in Spain than in England for example. There aren´t any EVo I, II, III, IV in Spain. And Ralliart Spain only brought 38 Evo V, and only in Rs version.
A bigger quantity of Evos VI, T.M and VII were sold, but I don´t know how many. ;)

bye

[Claudius]

Buona noche, willy :D

A lot of the Evos go to France ;)

Hope to see you some time here around Nice / Monaco. You comin to the rally? :)

Hasta la vista

Claudius

[evowilly]

Someday, I hope. Monaco is 1060km from here, it isn´t very far but there aren´t many free days:(

See you.
