New Wheels-now No Wheels !

[Bazza-old]

my new wheels have gone back

after discovering they were the wrong offset

after a week they have told me they cant suppply the 45mm offset

looks like i will have to start looking again

[Chris.S]

I always thought IS wheels had an offset of 50

[andyhart21]

No its definately a 45mm offset on the IS Chris, the MK1 GS has a 50mm offset (not sure about the MK2 GS)

When I had my 19" OZ's I had an offset of 40 upfront and 48 at the rear. Or was the other way round, i can't remember.

[Bazza-old]

the retailer told me they were 40mm

but a little scrub later, i took them of and discovered they were 35mm

he offered to roll the arches (unprintable response)

then offered to mill the wheels (even more unprintable response)

eventually accepted he was wrong

said would get right offset in a week

said no supplies in 45 available

offered all money back

took me long time choosing these wheels and didnt want to re choose

compromise time !

have now gone for the super legarra III which are available

retailer will supply at his cost price, due to unhappy customer

result happy customer!

good stuff bazza

at least he sorted it for you.

im debating whether to put the same size alloys as are on mine now but change the alloys to KAHN RSS ( i think thats them, 6 spoke polished ones)

i wanted the split rim 2 piece KAHNs but i think they are 19's only

19" WILL FIT :hocus-pokus:

but keeping the same size alloys does save on tyre purchase
