I have only had my vts for a few days now, and on the way work this morning I got a nasty vibration. Got out and my passanger side front alloy was only held on with 2 loose bolts! The alloy is shot, and the spare won't fit!

My question is what other alloys/wheels fit? And if anyone as got any to sell around the Cheshire area today give me a pm! Cheers

Why is the alloy shot?

Can you not replace it with another VTS wheel from a breakers?

All 4x108 wheels fit with an offset of around 18 iirc

It's got a set of black team dynamics on it. (the pics in the newbie section) and 2 of the bolt holes are egg shaped,

try mas, if you're lucky they'll have a steelie in a similar size, and you can make up the difference with the tyre

what size is the alloy anyway?

Are you from northwich?? I went mas on Saturday for a few bits and thought they were a bit arsey! I will try northwich metals just behind it at marston.
They alloys that are on it are 15" with a 175/55/15 tyre and I think 20mm spacers.

i am yea mate, up in weaverham!

be hard pushed at northwich metals, don't seem to have anything tbh!


if you stick one of the alloys from the back on the front and then try and get a 14" steelie with a fat tyre on it, should make up the difference. i'm not certain though!
