Hi All,

I'm looking at a set of Advanti NOVA wheels and there is a shop in FTG that is selling them in 19"x 8.5" with a 40+ offset and I would like to know if they will fit. The have 35+ offset listed in their ebay ad but 40+ on their website.

NEW 2011 Model 19" Advanti NOVA suit FORD NISSAN MORE (eBay item 150560614088 end time 11-Mar-11 0938 AEDST) : Cars, Bikes, Boats

The Wheel Deal

So need someone with a 1st gen TT to drive over and test fit a wheel.

Cheers,

Joe

Well gave the guy in FTG the measurements and it looks like the wheels will hit the inner edge of the caliper so these are no good. So I ordered these today. AUD$945.00 delivered

Well the last thing I needed to do before changing wheels was to remove the old lock nuts which I managed to lose the key for. So using the old bash a socket on the nut and try to remove them got 3 of the 4 off. The last one just will not come off. It just shreds the nut so with every attempt it gets worse and worse and reduces my chances little by little...... so now I'm fucking screwed Might have to take it around to a mates workshop on the weekend and see what can be done.
