fancy rims

[busdiver]

i quite like running my original rims and tyre set up easy replaced tyre if ever i am away and get a puncture etc, although touch wood in 30 years driving never had more than a slow puncture.

what fancy rims out there are "standard" 14" 5 stud/ correct pcd and offset seeing as the old girls getting a makeover thought i'd look at some new footwear for her.

Not much out there close to standard. Most aftermarket wheels are 15" and offsets tend to be quite low compared to stock.

As Aspro has said most are 15"

You can browse them here:

Porsche rims are 5 x 130 PCD whereas your 72 is 5 x 112 so they would only fit with adaptors, you have to be careful with the offset as well.

They look a nice set of rims!!! Porsche usually have a good off set, I say usually not always, I got teledials and run 20mm thick adapter plates on the rear did fit the same to the front until my Red 9 was fitted. It's a shame your not closer, you could bring a wheel and I got a pair of spacers to try them on. Dare to be different !!!

Yep if i'm gonna go from stock want something a bit different just need to get my head round the offset thing and adaptor plates........

Not sure what the offset is like on 'Cookie Cutters' may be worth checking they will fit without any issues before buying, I think a couple of people on here run them on their buses.

Cookies come in a WIDE range of offsets and 90% of tyhem are no good for busses, so do be careful!
