I have a RRS Super charged and I need to know if I can fit the 19" wheels on it, reason is that you can not get mud tyres for the 20" rims (unless anyone knows different). |

Shouldn't be a problem...want mine whenever the RRS turns up!! I'll only stick them on e-bay anyhow. HSE TD6 (Java Black/Ivory)

Rob which wheels did you buy the supercharged standard or the stormers? Also may I ask the price you paid, I am going to be selling my standard supercharged wheels and was wondering around what I can get for them. |

Wheels are standard not the stormer style, I may be looking for a set of 19" as well to use when I go and play in the mud. Problem is that my local dealer say's that the 19" wheels do not leave enough clearence for the brakes but then they had also never heard of some one asking about moving down a size on the wheels. A way round this would be to find a 20" mud tyre. |

The standard 20" paid 1200 sterling for them (delivered) with the tires, centre caps, nuts & lock nut socket. Watched on e-bay for a while and they seemed to be going for around 1600-1800 sterling so felt I got a decent deal.

Possible as the supercharger has the Brembo's as standard which are probably larger. If you take the Brembo's on the diesel or petrol you take 20" wheels as well, however I find it hard to believe that even the larger discs & calipers wouldn't fit in 19" rims. You don't get much bigger discs & calipers than on my GT3 and these fit in 18" rims. HSE TD6 (Java Black/Ivory) 911GT3 (Guards Red, carbon interior) ElanSE (BRG) Panamera Turbo S Boxster S |

When my car had its full four wheel alignment done the week after delivery they had to swap the 20 inch wheels for 19s as the alignment machine they have is not big enough for the 20's. So, they DO go on the car, I saw it.
