Default Sierra cosworth wheels






Hi everyone, just wondered if someone could help me, I'm looking to get some compomotive th's for my 3 door cossy. Ive currently got 17inch comps but realy like the look of the th's. Seen a few with them and think they look great. I heard that they are only available in 18's? Not sure if that is true. What I'm askin is what size wheels and offset is everyone using? And also what's the best tyre size to go for with these wheels? I've attached some pics the white car is mine and the black one is one I've seen on eBay, the wheels on the black one are exactly the ones I'm after with the exact same clearance just wondered what springs were used to gain the right height and clearance the same as that. All help appreciated. Many thanks. Russ

Th's are the best looking wheel. Not a 3dr but they are 17 th's on sapph.




Rota d154 are now available in 17's and look very similar to th's

Thanks for your help lads I'm guessing the size to go for is 17, is there any particular offset I should go for on them and any particular tyre size to avoid rubbing or anything?

I have the same question about the same wheels... The rota D154 only come in ET42, but will it fit without scratching?
