16" Coupe wheels

As my tyres are going a bit too bald for my liking I'm going to be fitting my coupe wheels to the Marea. The idea being I'm going to bin the tyres when I put them on the Tipo so may as well get my money out of the tyres which are fitted. Plus I like the idea of not having to spend money on tyres for a while! Plenty of pics to come

Seems people are fitting coupe wheels to almost anything these days

Unfortunaly I've fallen at the first since I don't have enough wheel bolts. The 15" alloys on the Marea now use a much different bolt and I wouldn't be happy with the amount of thread holding the wheels to the hub. Oh well.. £20 for wheel bolts which I'll need anyway or £90 in tyres and fitting.

Re: 16" Coupe wheels

Just a quick update to say I'm still awaiting the bolts. There arn't any in the UK or Italy apparantly so they're doing a worldwide search!
