Thumbs up

Good morning fellas,

Okay so I finally stopped thinking about which wheels I wanted and decided to order up some OEM 166 wheels. I am very excited, because deep down those were the wheels I really liked to begin with, and thanks to some words of wisdom from some of the fellas on here, it pushed me to finally pull the trigger.

Garry (Newport - THX ) said since I ordered the wheels with the M6 offset (ET17) it would take a couple weeks to ship from Germany, so you all will have to wait on the pics. I do have one follow up question, I currently have Style 124 wheels on my car, does anyone know if I can use the same lug bolts, or do a need to order a new set?

Who on here is running my set up, and did you use your original lug bolts?


Thx and I hope you all enjoy the day!!!!

running the same set up i.e. Style 166, M6 offsets - Front Size 8 1/2JX19 ET:12-Wt=13,266, Rear Size 9 1/2JX19 ET:17-Wt=13,266. Come to think of it, believe the existing lugs are re-useable. But will have to reconfirm with the dealer. What sort of suspension set up are you on?

Eibach Pro-Kit and my car has the sport package, so I am hoping the wheels tuck under nicely and are nice and flush. I heard good things about the M6 Wheel set up, so I am excited.

The existing lugs are reuseable. No problem. Unless you're planning spacers which I doubt. For me, just luv seeing from an angle how the deep dish wheel spins when she rolls out either from the garage or workshop, i.e. when I not the one driving . Congrats again man on the wheels
