Monza 2's

u01atc8:
they are coming with these tyres

4 x 225/40/18 Economy Brand tyres

on this alloy dimension.

4 x 7.5 x 18

(they have two listed.. The ET48 and ET35.. what does this mean?

The economy brand is Enduro.. im led to believe.

I want to lower her.. as she sits stock. But how far could i lower her.. so she doesnt rub?

gazbutS3:
the ET figure is the offset of the alloy, std genuine monza's are ET51, so the ET48 are the ones you want. You would struggle to fit the ET35's.

Genuine 18" Monza's have a corrosion issue, in my experience the reps are worse, and I wouldn't put cheap tyres on such a fine handling car as the mk5. You may be better waiting for a secondhand set of genuine wheels, but 1's in decent condition fetch big money

gaz b:

I got my  monza 2 reps plus upgraded tyres (khumo), plus lockers, plus delivery  for £530 from wheelworx. :happy2: They don't have the black inserts though. A kind of gunmetal grey.  :surprised: Nice wheels though . :laugh:

Hi.Don't put budget tyres on if you can help it.I bought rep wheels and budget tyres and regretted it so ended going and buying
conti contact 3's.The budget tyres were fulrun. They were awful and dangerous in the wet!

u01atc8:
So you kept the rep alloys though yeah?
