They are the 8" flat winter wheels so no dish.

What made you opt for 12mm at the back and not 15mm as what appears to be the default size when putting a spacer on the back of a C7?

15mm is what I'd put on the back with the 9.5" wheels. With the 8" wheels you could porbably do with a 30mm spacer.

Simple answer really, wanted to keep the same spacers all around.
Like I wrote before during the winter not too obsessed with the looks, that's what the summer 21" are for. :)

Very very nice. I have the winter alloys too so this looks super tempting

Yes, you have voiced your opinion already in the same manner... :bigblink:

I'd have gone for the concave 20" with winter tyres.

Them ones look well???........ :thumbsdown:
However I have also posted an explanation as to why I didn't go for that:
brab wrote:I agree that stock 20" look 10x better, no going around that, but like I said, for me was priority to have as narrow winter tire as possible and with these I get 245s and for stock 20" 275 is minimum...
I go skiing a lot, so the car will get to see good amount of snow for sure... :)

Third time lucky....


I'd have gone for OEM 20" with winter tyres.

A3 S-line look alike wheels.



Actually no i wouldn't....I'd have been a man and kept 21" wheels just for the craic.
