I can't remember.

I have a couple of things to ask...

Did it scrub atall - if not, how the HELL did you manage that?!
What size tyres were fitted if you remember?

I'm having a few issues with my Speedlines (7x16", ET35 and 205/45/16 Tyres) that we think came from a Clio Williams...

Hmm, they don't look much better in terms of fit than mine do

Plus if it came with them, he may not know much to answer my questions.

Mine are shocking for Offset...

Perfectly possible if there is enough metal to do it safely

Not enough time to get it done for TVL though!

Can't get the AD08s in a 195 width... Just spent a fuckload on these as it is, so intend to use them!

292x21mm Fronts - touched the inside of the rim on my old Cesaros

The wheels pictured just came from powdercoat yesterday, and the tyres were bought new yesterday too.

Those wheels you have aren't from a Williams.

Williams wheels were 15s and had more of a concave.

I 1st thought they might be Starlet SR wheels, but turns out they are 15s.

Ahhh, Ok. Cheers.

They have the 60.1mm Centre Bore as per Renault, and 4x100 PCD and the original colour was Gold, hence the thoughts...

Heres a better pic for those who haven't seen them!

Someone may figure out if they are an OE Wheel or not

Given up.

Arches beaten out to shit and now instead of rubbing constantly, they 'only' rub under acceleration and when going up slopes.

Getting the tyres put onto my Vectra SRi Wheels instead now.
Looks like these Speedlines will have to be sold on too - not enough material on the rims to machine them to the correct offset... Fucksticks.
