Thinking about getting these fitted on a non lowered 197 cup, will it look odd with the ET45 ? anyone has any pics of ET45 7,5x17" on a non lowered 197 cup ?

 

[Sean197]

they would probably look a bit silly if it's not lowered. [MENTION=53714]FinlayMiller[/MENTION] has them on his 197, but his is lowered. They do look great though, and they make a nice alternative to the usual Ultraleggeras.

As Sean said if you're on standard ride height I wouldn't, 23MM poke will look crap without the height drop and I'm fairly certain all of the 197's I've seen with these are lowered either on springs or coils. They've become a very popular choice due to how cheap they are at under £400 a set.

what about the ultraleggeras on the standard cup setup? do they look ok ? as surely would be better for me to stay on the standard springs, keep the ride quality where it is now, my previous 197 on eibachs was a little too low for my liking tbh

but just cant get over it and keep thinking new wheels

Ultra's should look fine on standard height, IIRC they're ET55? so Only 13MM poke nowhere near as drastic but have a silly price to match.

Mine is lowered as Sean said but gives you a couple more views of them on the car!

thanks FinlayMiller, that looks great, I have the front RS splitter as well, need to see what to do with the suspension then, put new dampers and lowering springs or get a set of B14, but the wheels are definitely a go for.

[MENTION=31102]Warren[/MENTION] any links to where I can find them for that price? Everywhere i've looked is asking for £460 onwards

 

[dmur197]

I can only find prices of £500 near where I live for these too haha, but before I get them, do you think they would look ok with H&R springs?

 

[Sean197]

£401 for a set on ebay, brand new.

They should do mate. Are you going for 30/30 or 30/40?

 

[dmur197]

I would like the 30/40. but I don't know where to get them from. when I search for them they all seem to be 30/30. would you have a link to some 30/40? thanks

@DS197 Tyreleader and Tyre Pneus I looked at, just checked and they've hiked their prices. They were about £85 a wheel when I was looking at them just after Christmas.
