jonnie205 1 Posted May 6, 2007 you may need spaces to fit the mi16 wheels as they are a different offset, you may be ok tho as i have not actually tried this myself. Some fitters can charge up to £10 per wheel to swap but you should get them swapped for £5 each if you shop around Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jrod 7 Posted May 6, 2007 I got quoted £14 a wheel! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
duncs 0 Posted May 6, 2007 need spacers at the back or they will rub of the rear beam iirc, Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
number2301 1 1 Cars Posted May 6, 2007 Are you sure they're Mi16 wheels? I saw some on Ebay listed as Mi wheels but I think they're off a lower model, definitely not Mi wheels anyway as they're supposed to be really rare. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jrod 7 Posted May 6, 2007 (edited) Mi wheels don't seem to be rare, I think it's the t16 wheels that are rare (16 inch versions) 15" Mi16 wheels are ET29. Edited May 6, 2007 by Jrod Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Miles 331 1 Cars Posted May 6, 2007 I'd use spacers on the front too for the right offset, As Jrod's said the only rare 405 wheel is the T16 one (16") all the other's are very common and dirt cheap. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Casanova 0 Posted May 7, 2007 I rang round tyre places in Bristol for the same reason recently and was quoted £25-£50 for a set of 4 wheels. § Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KRISKARRERA 2 1 Cars Posted May 7, 2007 (edited) yer bathwick tyres said 20per wheel! but my uncle said ats changed one on his camper for 4.50? lol Which branch of Bathwick tyres was that then? My local branch wanted £106 for 2 tyres fitted!!!!!!!!! (Apparently the boss had gotten very fcuked off with people bringing in tyres for fitting that they'd purchased off the net, and so decided to charge a huge amount).
