Re: Andys 83 Coupe
15" on the Coupe NICE!!!!, whats the offset like and also shock clearence, any chance of a pic looking at the inside wheel arch view, i.e. showing the clearences. I was too looking at getting Compmotive to supply my wheels and I too wanted to go bigger than 13"

Re: Andys 83 Coupe
The stud pattern is the same as the Rover 100, gti, 16v, 1.4 K series I think that its 96 or 94mm pcd I'll have to check on the offset I'll dig it out, and post back later with the offset The rolling radius isn't far out from a normal 13 inch fitment for the Coupe

Re: Andys 83 Coupe
I made up the column gaiter using a universal CV boot which I removed the last section so that I could sandwich it between 2 metal plates, one is welded to the body the other site on the CV boot and column and is fastened into place.

Re: Andys 83 Coupe
Well I finally finished the body prep today, it has seemed like an eternity in reaching this point but I've finally got there, hopefully I will get the car off to the paint shop next week (snow dependent), mean while I will have to clean up all the other components and subframes ready for the re install. Can't wait to have it on the road (leagally)

Re: Andys 83 Coupe
The big day finally came, the Coupe went off to paint!!!!! Should be back next week, now the rebuild can really get underway, not bad only took 3 years to get to this stage
