Rockerrob666 Posted November 22, 2012 Author Share Posted November 22, 2012 hmmmm audi style, what about team dynamic pro race styles or even get a set of 18's! loli thought 17s was the biggest you could go whilst still keeping the same rolling radius??

Ahmotorsport Posted November 22, 2012 Share Posted November 22, 2012 Having 1mm shaved off a tyre changes the rolling radius. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SLEEMAN Posted November 22, 2012 Share Posted November 22, 2012 i've seen 19's fitted with a major squeeze! 18's do fit just need the right tyres and correct fitment! 215/35/18 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jones Posted November 23, 2012 Share Posted November 23, 2012 Is that a black ford badge on the front? If not, where would I get a black ford badge? I'm also contemplating the idea myself, about either getting honeycomb grill or getting the chrome one and painting gloss black, as I want my door trims to be gloss black also.

ChunkiEgg Posted November 23, 2012 Share Posted November 23, 2012 haha just noticed you're from my neck of the woods- I live 5 mins from Havant in Leigh Park  If you want a set of wheels on the cheap, my other half has got a set of Team Dynamics Citys 17" going, 70 quid a wheel- some slight lacquer issues but you only notice them if you're up close.  Car's looking good, starting to get a nice mean vibe to it and loving that sticker! Will keep an eye out for you on my travels- If you see either a silver mondy mk2 with ST kit on it or an ST200 knocking about with Fordmnx written on the side windows, that'll be me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know you'll def have to roll out the arches to stop scrubbing, but surley the larger wheel will kill any fuel economy and performance as the engine will have to work harder to turn them??!!

Rockerrob666 Posted November 23, 2012 Author Share Posted November 23, 2012 Puma also had 'turbines'just been onto ebay and there is a difference between the puma and the st24 turbines, liking the st24 turbines more but not sure about the 4-spoke, although the pumas are 5 spoke, not keen on the design???? the puma are 15, the st24 are 16 by the looks of things. duno if anyone can correct this?
