wrong section or you after pics?

you will only be able to go to about 8j or something on oem steels and then you will have to mod standard arches (cut bolts off, pull arches out then bond trim back on)

i say get something different and make them fit..

Here i have my black 15x8 banded steels.
They were originally on mini with 15x5.5, et45 and centre bore 56.1
They are now 15x8, et13 and centre bore 57.1
They all have 195/45/15 tyres, 2 federals and 2 nankangs with loads of life left.
Located in shropshire
Looking for around £450

I'm telling you if I was a half decent plater and had the equipment I'd be knocking these up by the bucket load. £450 for a set of steelies with a bit of welding, fuck me.

Those banded steels above will be far too wide. If you want 15inch, you could easily go 8j, but will need to start of as a high ET. A vaux steelie pref. I had 8j 15inch- pics in garage. Your best bet will be to get them made up for your spec as it will be hard getting the sizes you want.

If you had them powder coated or smoothed like me and Luke had with ours you wouldn't see the band.

If you think just buying a set of banded steels and sticking them on will be easy then they aren't the wheels for you. Needs a bit of thinking to get them to fit or get ones made to your spec.

on about 95% of sets you can see the joins, they need smoothing and painting/powder coating so you don't see the joins

Same as them, don't think they're as widely available as I thought though. Would have thought that there would be a set 2nd hand for about that.
