Compomotive MO 6 maybe?

555_Si 26-01-2020 02:45 PM

Or revolution millenium

scooby doo 26-01-2020 03:23 PM

Revos,

Jamina 26-01-2020 03:43 PM

Thank you! I will take a look and see if they fit over Brembos and come in 5x100

scooby doo 26-01-2020 03:54 PM

They do, 17inch and 18inch 5x100 and 5x114.3
Regularly available new.

Jamina 26-01-2020 04:01 PM

Cheers - do you know what specs I would need to fit over stock STI Brembos in 17”

I’m looking at options to make the ride softer for a little one and have come the the conclusion that the BBS STI alloys are probably not going to happen.

scooby doo 26-01-2020 04:11 PM

They do, but look really odd in 17 on a new age car because of the spoke design not going to the outside of the rim it looks a really small wheel,

You could just put v7/8 sti wheels on for cheap option,
Jap performance has a set of bbs 17s

Jamina 26-01-2020 04:26 PM

I’ll see if I can find some pictures as I really like the look of the photo of attached but I guess they are 18s then.

I have thought about stock STIs but I just wanted something with a bit different and with more of a “rally” look to them ��

Looked at the JPP set and that’s exactly what I am looking for but they are in desperate need of a refurb and no tyres so will round out at well over a grand when adding new tyres

scooby doo 26-01-2020 04:32 PM

The bbs rims from the spec c are normally pricey,
The revolution wheels are lovley and built well but need to be in 18inch for stylish reason in my opinion.

Jamina 26-01-2020 04:39 PM

Cheers for the help, I can’t find anyone with 17s on newage probably for the reason you have mentioned.

I’m in no rush I just want something that’s 17” for more comfortable ride (I have stock STI suspension) something that looks good in gold as a bit of a change and something that has a bit more of a rally feel.

All in it would be great to get the complete package in decent condition with new or nearly new decent tyres for around £800

The BBS wheels would be my preference but unfortunately my budget just doesn’t extend that far right now.

Scott.T 26-01-2020 04:54 PM

Revolution Millenium all fit over Brembo as they were designed specifically for the STi.
I've looked at fitting them on my Classic over Brembo's for that retro rally look.

Thanks Scott. Really after 17s though so I can have a thicker tyre wall. I’m getting a few complaints about the comfort of the ride

Jamina 26-01-2020 05:18 PM

Since when were wheels so expensive anyway haha

scooby doo 26-01-2020 05:26 PM

If your happy with your current wheels you could change to Coilovers and run the damping right down and choose a softer spring rate

Jamina 26-01-2020 05:30 PM

Learning as I go, thought I had PFF7s but they’re actually speedlines.

Nothing wrong with them, bit tired though and thought a change up would be good.

Any recommendations on a set of coilovers that would offer this, road use only so don’t need anything fancy but don’t want eBay poo either

scooby doo 26-01-2020 05:43 PM

Speedlines are PFF7 fella,
Should have speedlines and prodrive embossed on the in the rim,

scotty 26-01-2020 07:14 PM

17 will look out of place on a newage I had 18x7.5 5x100 et48 revos on my classic

Jamina 26-01-2020 07:53 PM

Hmmmm - maybe I should just stick with what I have!

Okay they’re not speedlines then they’re the copy ones - inovits? Something like that

Not if you direct to revolutionwheels.com you get a better price or speak to Alyn at Asperformance.

Scott.T 27-01-2020 07:29 AM

17's

https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?m...2F292727692489

Jamina 27-01-2020 08:28 AM

Thanks Both, I had a look and I definitely have the replicas - Inovit redlines I think they are called. They look like PFF7s but from what I read on them a while back they are not as strong as flowformed and they are also heavier than the flowformed wheels.

I don't track the car though and have always seen me good for road use so I could just give them a touch up and move to coilovers.

Thanks for all the advice on here - I will look at coilovers as an alternative and keep my eye out for a set of second hand wheels in good nick.

Jamina 27-01-2020 08:30 AM

Like these: https://www.scoobynet.com/group-buys...-17-365-a.html

Looks like they were only about £400 new!

asperformance 27-01-2020 08:40 AM

as @scotty mentions we can happily deal Revolution, Speedline and various others as required (and always have)

Okay cheers - will spend some time looking at options first, still haven't found a picture of a newage Blob with 17s...

jmcc42uk 04-02-2020 09:44 PM

I think the Speedlines are the genuine article

Thanks @Anger

Are those 17” or 18”?

Jamina 12-03-2020 06:17 PM

Still asking about wheels - can anyone add to the picture above with 17” options on a newage that fit over Brembos.

I really just want the BBS wheels that came on the spec c but they just don’t seem to come up. Now looking at new.

scooby doo 12-03-2020 07:34 PM

I know of a set of genuine clean bbs spec c 5x100 with new track tyres but there £1200

Jamina 13-03-2020 08:14 AM

Have messaged you for more details. Cheers!

Beridow 17-03-2020 03:52 PM

Compomotive MO 6 maybe?

Jamina 19-03-2020 04:08 AM

Looking at attached set, does anyone know if I have selected the correct specs and how wide I will be able to run without arch modifications?

Ride height is standard
