Guest Megster Posted January 12, 2007 I like to put some 7 or even 8 inch rims on the front of my 205 sprint car. I know escort cosworth wheels will go on, with off set issues to solve, but are there any 7 or 8 inch rims that'll go straight on (with or without arch mods?) Not at all bothered about aesthetics - only grip and cheapness!!!!!! Thanks - AJ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Banjo 1 Posted January 13, 2007 8s will go on fine, I'm pretty sure 'Sam' is running 8s have a search for his threads.. Ben Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sandy 191 Posted January 13, 2007 You can beat out the arches to cover 8's and run the plastic arch loose at the top, so if the tyre contacts, it'll bend. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pdd144c 0 Posted January 13, 2007 Im running 16 x 8's and have a set for sale. ET25 though, require 25mm spacers. All arches need trimming a lot though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rippthrough 98 Posted January 13, 2007 Weld a strip into some 15" steelies and make up a new centre plate to weld in for the right offset. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Baz 421 Posted January 13, 2007 Bare in mind that you can only go an inch wider than std for most prod. class regs. I have 6 old TSW's that are 7x15, not that much bigger but effective and cheap as chips! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I run in Modified Production class in Welsh Sprint and H/C championship. My brother in law runs 8 inch front rims on his Williams Clio, but he is in Rally Car class. I need to check that I'm allowed to do the same. Pretty sure that it's o.k., though... Thanks again - Alun Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
