new here,,,weller steel wheels? for ins. reasons

[LoonTim]

Hi, (didnt kno if there was anywhere i should introduce myself like on some forums but couldnt find anywhere so decided not to), for insurance reasons i.e. cost of alloys at 17 i was wandering about other alternatives...the obvious are SR steelies then i got thinking about weller wheels as seen mainly on mini's and fords. Anyone know if they would fit or/and what would be needed to make em fit ('92 5dr Nova saloon)?

Cheers
Tim

yeah they fit, search the projects forum for '100pound nova' he has some fitted

I thought weller steels came in quite a low offset?

In terms of insurance though, you will still have to declare them as they are an aftermarket modification.

Welcome to PNG by the way :D

Yes they are quite low jack, would be ok on a saloon though, unless your going "burgo" low...

^^ they did foul the arches slightly but nothing we couldnt hammer out :D

I painted VW G60/golf "winter wheels" wheels white .... ET 36 however but look good for the money.

What's the offset on those wellers do you know draper?

RazorJack - I am hoping that being steel wheels they wont almost double my ins. when i pass and go on my policy like the alloys on it now will, although i know i will have to declare them,,,cheers.
Anyone know where to get them from? They wernt the ones i was actually thinking of though even though they are way smart, i will get some pics of the ones i want...cheers

not a clue tbh, i can find out tho

[LoonTim]

I dont think there'll be any problems with clearance mate, when you see it you'll know what i mean,,,deffo needs lowering but it'll have to wait.
I seriously doubt the alloys on now have the correct offset, they were on a corsa but the lad who had it before me couldnt insure them on it so chucked em on the loon when he sold it.
I will try and get some pics up,,,do you have to have 15 posts to put pics up?
