Cheap wheels/tyres for IVA
Bizarro - 10/11/12 at 05:14 PM

Looking to get my car through IVA in the next couple of months, problem is my rear wheels are about 10mm proud of the rear arches so I need a cheap set to get through IVA.
The ones I have are 7 X 16 with ET37 off set, not only are they proud of the arch but the centre of the wheels stick out further than the tyre by 5mm which again I believe is an IVA fail.

Anything considered as long as they have decent tyres minimum U speed rating.

The centre of the wheels stick out further than the tyre? Who are you, a top gear presenter:



or a Teutonic abomination lover?

Can you not fit some rubber edging to your wings to extend them, I did this on my front arches to get through sva.

I'll see if I can find some pics

A pity I am too far north I have 5 Sierra alloys with legal tyres doing nothing in the shed.

I have some fiesta mk6 5spoke alloys with good all weather tyres for sale but one wheel as a slight ding so used it on the rear as couldnt balance them to well.

Thanks for the picture, I did think about doing that but as the rear arches fold under at the edge its difficult to find something suitable.
