New wheels
kastrato - 12/4/07 at 12:54 PM

I am about to buy some new wheels for my MK INdy and I need to know if the ones I found will fit my car.
I am trying to find out for a long time now but nobody seems to know so far if definatelly will fit my car.
The wheels are PCD 108 ford fitment
13'' x 5,5 and offset 28.
Will these gonna fit my MK INdy with sierra discs in front and drums in the back??
Any info appreciated, thanks in advance!

I think that the general consensus is that 13" wheels don't fit over sierra calipers.

I stand to be corrected but there has been plenty of discussion on this subject.

Cheers

So do you think it is better to avoid buying them??

put it this way: Are they worth buying if they might not fit?

They won't fit

There are a couple of options if you want 13" wheels, but both involve not haviong sierra calipers anymore - change for wilwoods or similar lightweight calipers, or (apparently) golf calipers will fit under 13"s.

Either way, I think it's only the rear calipers that are a problem. But I'll stand to be corrected on that.

thats what i thought too, i was sure that 13s normally fit over sierra front callipers.
