Thinking of getting this set up along with my Turbo Flares. Any one have experience with the set up? 15x8 ET0 and 15x9 ET0

 

Would it be similar to your box flares? Fitment wise

I'm not sure how wide turbo flares are but 15x8 et0 is gonna be 20mm further inward and 15x9 et0 is gonna be about 25 or 30mm further inward compared to what I have now,I think my front wheels are et-15 and my rear wheels are et-30 give or take a couple mm

I'm finally gonna bite on this thread..

 

In my mind, this how it should be! Ireland stage 1 +Bilstein HD's, Opel Rally 13x5.5 w/ 185 R70 Cooper tires

 

 

Thanks. This is actually the reason I have been dragging through all of these pages......

I have 76' with IE Stage 1 springs' Koni sports (couldn't find HD's) and just bought a set of 5 1/2Jx13H2 'Alpinas'. I noticed a comment that 185/70-13 worked (as shown here) and sometimes 205/60-13 might work. Given the wider options with the latter I was looking for input on how/if these fit??

205/60/13 will work if you roll your fenders and have a little camber, otherwise you might rub on stuff

These actually are not Alpinas, but Opel Kadette Rallye wheels. I have since moved onto 13x6 Borranis, with 185/70 13 Pirreli CN36's

Thanks for the response. I actually noticed that they were not Alpinas but did notice that they were still 13x5 1/2 so hoped the tire fitment comments would be the same?

 

On a sidenote if you ever use voice to text and say the word "Alpina" trust me you need to check the output before you hit send ?
