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

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

Ive got 4x 8" on my mk4 atm and they are a bit to wide on the front for my taste lol
They 8" fit perfectly on the rear
You dont happen to know what the offset is on the 7" do you ??

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!!!
