wheels

[Jacko]

a mate of mine told me that all 1999 saxos are 3 stud wheels.

Although i left my car at another mates house last night just waiting on him fitting my new head unit..and he told me that it might not be 3 stud...

I havent as yet checked cus the wheel trims are held on by them zip lock things!

Is it possible i have 4 stud wheels?

cheers! :y:

[tpreece88]

yeah depends on your engine size/spec i think.
ive got a 1998 1.4 and ive got 4 studs but im not entirely sure on 1.1 sorry best just to have a look!!

[MattyJ]

1.1's are 3 Stud I think.

[Luke_vts]

whats your car specifications?

[Jacko]

Just off the phone to my mate and he told me he checked and there four stud!

So unless he is takin the piss here i am well chuffed!:y:

What do you think white multi spoke 15's would look like on a black 1.1?

cheers!

[Karl]

couldnt you of counted the bolts in your own wheel?

white multi spokes would look cool,
are you lowered?

[Jacko]

i could have yea lol but i couldnt be arsed takin the wheels trims of and all that! and then i left my car at a mates so i didnt have the car to check it.

No not lowered yet altho i was thinkin 15's and lowered about 35mm?

[Karl]

Yeah I'd advise you to lower your 1.1 perhaps a little more as they do sit really high. perhaps 45/50mm.

15 inch multispokes are always a winner.

as for not taking hubcaps off? 2 secs job lol.

[Jacko]

will ther be no rubbing with 15's?

thats why i was thing only 35mm, but if 45/50 is possible thenill defo do that!

cheers:y:

[Karl]

i should think if you changed your shocks aswell to stiffer ones, im sure there wouldnt be any rubbing at 45mm

[Jacko]

nice 1.

cheers for that!:y:

hopefully get the wheels and get it lowered over the next few weeks!

[Scattle]

As said, engine size is the factor, mines a 1996 1.6 sx and it's four stud. Yours is more than likely a 3 stud.

[Thompz]

ive got a P reg 1.1 and its a 3 stud, my mates got a S reg 1.1 and its a 4 stud, just depends, lol

Mine rubbed the side of the tyre.
You may need to curb your wheel arches with 15" on them.

[Jacko]

yea i get it back later, so ill just have a look.

if its 4 stud happy days and if its 3 stud its hardly the end of the world!:P

[Jacko]

how do i go about curbing the wheels arches?

[CloSaxo]

Body shop, might be a bit pricey, or if you think your good enough you could bend the lip on the arch back yourself depending how much it rubs.
