ET is way too low for a classic on 8 inch rims.
They are also multi fit which personally I hate and is a good wheel style ruined.

Cheers Scott they said the same but they sent me a picture of these as they will fit

That's what I have on my bug now (Ultralite A-Tec)

If you were closer you'd be welcome to try them for size, but its a bit far to go! ;)

Cheers Steve will be down next year at some point and also for the ring trip can always try one on when in Germany 😉

Yep, they've got 225/40/18s on at the moment though which isn't right for classics - only just thought of that!

That's not a problem Steve just would put it on to see what its like on and I was running 225/45/18 on the Terzo :grin:

They don't fit over Brembo's hence why I sold them to Steve

Really? Thought it was just you weren't a fan of them :)

Surprised they fit over my 356mm ksports then, I know Brembos are fat calipers but I've got a good amount of clearance....

That's interesting Brembos need to go on a diet then I wonder if you could get them modified by doing a bit of shaving .

Scott.T 10-12-2014 06:09 PM

Needed a 9mm stack of washers to clear the inner edge of the caliper.
