RH Cups SWAP

Post by JBOB »

Hi,

I’ve got 2x 15x8 RH cups (not sure of et atm) and id like to swap them for some 7" ones 8)

They have 195/50/15 Avon tyres on but they could do with being replaced so im not bothered if the thinner wheels have tyres or not. They both have a very small amount of lacquer peel on the dish but nothing that can’t be sorted.

Any one want to do a swap ???

Im nr Huddersfield West Yorkshire but can travel (a reasonable distance)

ET on them mate is ET25 So if your putting them on a MK5 (6N2) Polo you will need a minimum of 15mm Spacers on the rear people.

Also you can get some 165/50/15 Tyres on the 8's The strech is uber cool 8)

I don't mind doing a swap, but that's dependent on if your willing to drive 3 hours, down to Wembley mate?

Also sent a message on CP.

Though if you do want to swap, they are in need of a bit of a referb as they are all kerbed, but I will get a few pictures of the best two for you!

sorry bud, the et for the 8's is 25 and the 7's are 37

I have the 8's & 7's - if your into the old bit strech, get some 165/50/15 tyres on all 4 mate, nice and subtle at the front and insane on the rear!!!
