ok have just swapped some wheels off my diablo, which i will put cyclones on for now and just got a set of 307 alloys like 180's to go onto astor which isn.t lowered! and will be resprayed grey!



i think this one needs a new tyre tho!!


need to know if they will fit straight on?
they are 205/50 17's but will be putting 40's on them
correct me if i am wrong, 6.5 by 17's and ET31
180's are 7 by 17's and ET28

You should be able to get away with just the rears however the wheels may look odd being slightly more set back than original. I did have some on my old car with 3mm spacers on the rear and no arch liners but looked weird to be honest and much prefered it with 10mm spacers fitted.

No worries, 10mm on the back would be a must really but personal preference about the front as I never had any issues without them on the front.

There should be some pics on old challenger or gti 180 votex threads as they are pretty much the same. I thought they looked really good but you really can feel the extra weight with them compared to 15s so ended up going back to smaller wheels and I had an addiction to wheels so fancied a change again!!
