Merc wheels

[tappingt]

I am jus gathering ideas for my next project. what do you think of these merc amg wheels? would have to diamond cut them and spray em up gloss black, leaving the lip of course. I am thinking they maybe a bit to much for a nova.

Their must be some sort of adaption plate. I got the idea of a nova i saw around my area with Porsche 996 wheels polished.

you can buy adapters for golfs to fit the porsche wheels , this is what the nova has on im guesing, never seen any merc ones tho

just get some Cav GSI wheels and have a chrome lip put on?

surely thats possible?

If you do this, you will need a wide arch kit. the spacers for the hubcentric adapter will push the wheel further out......

you can get a hub adapter from venom motorsport, but under the vw section

the offset for these wheels are 46 and the nova offset is 49 i believe it may even out if not i'll grind part of the wheels hub.

A 46mm offset will stick out further than a 49mm offset; adding the spacers/adapters will lower it even more, probably by about 25mm or so.

?are you for real?

Actually, it's the other way. 46mm sits 3mm further out on the hub than 49mm so if you fit a 20mm hubcentric adapter, the wheels will become et26 mm, and guess what....

Asscakes, sorry, typo - I meant 49mm not 29mm lol

Cornish has black/anthracite Cav GSi rims with a silver polished lip and they look the nuts, plus they are cheaper than Merc wheels and will actually fit right?

[rednova]

the spacers are 20-30mm iirc check out dubmeister website for details I was afetr some if they can do them for audi fitment
