My collection is going down, by order of the management. Well Angie says I have got too many, but she's not counting the set I am buying for her Coupe.

Hard to argue with Dave. Want them, buy them. Still open to offers...

Bumpety bump bump.

These wheels are still available folks. Anyone interested, please PM me. Happy to consider sensible offers.

I had 18 inch alloys on my R52 MCSC, and as far as I can remember, they need spacers to fit comfortably but this needed a tracking reset. Most people, me included, just fitted them with no problem- is this still the case with the R55/6?
I change my wheels over in the winter and resetting the tracking would be a pain..............

OK answered my own question.......they need "a steering angle stop" as per R53/2

We had these fitted to an R53 which had the limiter fitted. We also had them on our R56 Cooper S which did NOT have the limiter fitted and had absolutely no problems at all. No rubbing, scraping or steering issues.

Just thought I'd let you know.

I'm led to believe you need 5mm spacers over brembos
