General Where to buy Compomotive ML's from ?

[GhostWKD]

Well mine cost £650 through demon tweeks including 4 yoko a539 tyres fitted

 

[little_yellow_beast]

im interested in getting the compotition mls of performance alloys which are pretty much the same as these i want but 14's and mine is lowerd by 40mm would i need them in that exact same fit as ghost wkds 13's ?. ive been told if i get them in 14 with an et of 30 3mm spacer on front non on back it would be fine? also what tyre would you recomend with this wheel with out it rubbing?

The Compomotive Mo's as fitted to Blue are 14" 6J ET 35 with 195/45 rubber, they have 8mm spacers at fron only and none rear and there is no issue with scrubbing/rubbing and thats with a decent drop on it.

Blue has something like a 30mm drop and even with 2 large adults in the back there's no rubbing, so you should be OK. Go for 6J because it gives you a much wider tyre choice and for 195/45/14 in Uniroyal Rainsport because they're sensibly priced and suit the car very well.

The only issue you may have with the MLs is large calipers fouling the wheel (and those tyres can handle the Punto GT brake upgrade).

cheers for that help mate

so is there any chance you know where i can get uniroyals coz performance alloys dont do that tyre and im sure i will find it dificult to find :yum: or if not is there an alternative tyre you can recomend i ws thinkin falken?

Mr Tyre and Top Gear both do them. Usually Mr Tyre are a little cheaper. Expect to pay something like £50 a corner.

I know the Rainmaster is a great tyre, I know nothing about the Falken.

standard calipers fouled the insides of the spokes, needed 10mm spacers to sort it out on the front

 

[little_yellow_beast]

if you needed 10mm spacers did you not need a stud conversion? and if you put 10mm on the front wont they stick out more than the back?

 

[GhostWKD]

nope 10mm spacers and longer bolts...

i actually use another 6mm spacer inside the disc for the UT brake conversion up front, so the fronts have a extra 16mm track each side... looks bit unusual, but helps no end with handling

 

[little_yellow_beast]

So i get 14x6j compotition ml's with an et of 30, 10mm spacers on front non on the back with 195/45/14 uniroyal's and that would be fine? (oh and i dont have a brake conversion and i dont plan to for some time so i got a little more room to play withright ?) does that sound about right or what ???

ET35! (Not 30!) And if you use 10mm spacers at the front you'll probably be able to get the bigger calipers on. You'll have wider track at the front than the rear, but this is a good thing on a FWD car (helps turn in).

 

[little_yellow_beast]

and with this i will need longer studs?

 

[CinqyAbarth]

if you use 10mm spacers youll need 10mm longer studs as the spacer will take up 10mm more of the thread on the bolts/studs..

 

[little_yellow_beast]

right one last question, i swear!!

so i get 14x6 et of 35 10mm spacers and studs. seeing as the wheels im lookin at are deep dish i will need i different et for wheels like these right?

im only asking coz when i rand demon-tweaks last they yold me they dont do wheels for cinquecentos and im guessin alot of places are gonna say the same plus i need to save for them.

 

[CinqyAbarth]

whenever buying wheels say your buying for a punto or maybe try seicento, but punto they always say yes.. and punto wheels are easy to fit to a cinq..

No. Those look fine. Get 35et. Nice wheels, btw.
