BIG WHEELS on a little 126?

[gadge]

is it possible to get 15" 205's on a 126?..........got some marea one's kickin around in the garage and i'm thinkin of gettin one? what do u think?

Ive got 13" mags on mine with 175/50/13's on they fit ok . Ive seen a few with fit 14's too .. as for 15's with 205s they might physically fit but i would reckon they will hang out arches alot so you may not get them through an mot and you will possibly get a fair bit of rubbing... mind you 126 arch extensions are available and it woud look cool.... especially if you lower it a little.

where can u get arch extentions from?

belgian site i beleive but its in english check them out click the little picture of the archs to get a better view (large pictures arent the arches)

15s???? That will look just silly, some decent width 13"s would look just fine. Also, bear in mind 126 king pin wear is bad enough using standard wheels and tyres, I reckon massive wheels and wide tyres will knock them out every MOT time.

just been on the site.....they look trick

gadge to give you an idea of relative size heres my 126 with its newly fitted mags they are 13" with 175/50/13 tyres on- (1-2 inch lowering job to follow) 205s would stick out quite a bit!!

id go for mate 15's will look gd and very gd with those arches

 

[stuey]

nah ive got a lowering job in the offing very soon watch this space... also you cant go much wider without spacers theyre a little tight!!
