Hi Mattd1984, thanks...sent them an email for information couple of days and am waiting for their reply as well. So is it true that the torsion leaves have to be removed? And reliability concerns thus far?
 
Yes need to remove the leaves. Not really sure why as there on coilovers? Not problem with the kit. Been on now for 8 months probably

what should I do, I´m running 15X5 BRM´s with 195/60R15 on the rear, and the tire is rubbing against the fender

They fit OK just a small clearance, bit of a bugger to remove though. :lol:

Hi Guys, I love this forum, My name is Kreso and I'm from Croatia, I own T2ab panel and want to buy midland wheels Cosimic or Fuch repro 5x112, Cosmic are 5,5 and fuch (black and polished) i would get 4,5 front and 5,5 rear. Does anyone have some pictures of those wheels (repro 5x112) on bay and if clearance is OK for rear tire 195/65 r15 et on wheels is 20.
Another question is do you have problems with tires that are not for cargo vehicles? like 175/55 r15 from smart because of weight on front.
Thanks.

In the states you can get a set of 4 in good shape for about $200. Then $25 a piece to have
them sandblasted/primered, a few cans of Krylon Dover White and your looking at about $325
out the door. The toughest part is finding a set that isn't tweaked (out of round) and not pitted.
It's not easy to tell without putting them on a balancing machine first.
 
Hi Cunning , Sold mine last year for £80 Ratty but straight , If thats any help :?
 
Cheers anyway Grazy, worth a shout..
£80 was about what I was expecting for straight ones, so yep, that helps to confirm 8)
