i can fit any wheels to an awd magna


they said you cant possibly go bigger than 16" maybe 17" if your lucky! well i had been running 20's for over 12 months now no problems at all!!!


and now...............


they said it cant be done!

15's! yes i have some 15's on the awd..... verry little clearance on the front, but i reckon 14's would fit on the rear!

wow 50kw gain over the 20's wish i had these wheels when it was s/c'd!!! easy 13's for sure!!! no question!

the reason for the 15's?

well i traded in the car and the 20's are at the tyre shop taking a break, so i just chucked on any old set of 16's they had laying around.... ford probe 16's are a perfect fit.... but this morning i noticed this.

cracked right through

so they went back and i swapped them for these

(everything removed from car no subs no amps no fuel, just 5L left no spare and it's about 40mm off the road, but rides smooth as :D)

it looks way better in real life :D from front on you cant see any day light under the car when looking towards the back even when you bend down to look.... looks like its resting on the ground... i was asked if it was bagged hahaha

damn thats cool

needs a v8 with blower poking out the bonet lol


i still have it as im waiting for the car to have the rwc done, get the new car tomorrow morning!

but i had to swap the wheels (no cost) cos i dont think i'd like to drive with the snapped spoke! and i dont think they'd be happy with the new choice of broken buckled wheels lol
