Rev 5 Turbo Alloy Wheel Help
Hi , i'm new to the site . I have a Rev 5 Turbo with standard wheels and i want to fit either the 5 spoke rev3 alloys ( if they fit ) or 17" 5 spokes . Does anyone know of any staggered 17" alloys on the market that would fit and possible pics . Sorry if this has been discussed before , but im starting to go mad trying to find wheels . Thanks for your help.

Re: Rev 5 Turbo Alloy Wheel Help
Moved to Wheels and Tyres section
First step is to check this information thread: http://www.mr2oc.co.uk/forums/59/41923.html
Secondly yes the rev2-4 wheels with the fatter 5 spokes fit, but please don't make your car look worse by swapping rev5 alloys for them!

Re: Rev 5 Turbo Alloy Wheel Help
I still think standard rev5s look better:spanky wrote:..... look how sexy and natural they look
Or better still, a nice subtle 17" rim (TSW Heat on mine and then Tinker2's old car):
Or even go the whole hog and get some decent lightweight racing alloys (TE37s in this case):
There, I think that's enough of my car history / pic-whoring for now

Re: Rev 5 Turbo Alloy Wheel Help
OK you have made your point and we can be friends again ... even though I didn't see an apology
Still don't agree that the rev5s look better though. I had a set on my first NA many years ago and never liked them. Down to personal taste really.
At least we agree which colour is the fastest

Rev5 wheels for standard, advan Sa3r 17" for the non standard JDM look, Lenso D1 for pure sex appeal
Cosmos Gen 4 3sgte - Finished...for now

Re: Rev 5 Turbo Alloy Wheel Help
They've had that set a while - i posted them up about 9 months ago. And they'd fit Mick
Might be worth an offer - $1600 delivered to UK say?
