Do Cupra - R wheels fit straight on a cupra??

Hi,

I've got an 04 Leon Cupra, at the moment i've got the 17" factory fitted ronal alloys but i've always liked the look of the 18" factory fitted alloys from the cupra R. If i ever manage to get hold of the 18" alloys is there any potential problems with putting them on the cupra, will they fit straight on? Or is there a difference in the number of studs or anything like that?

Any advice much appreciated, thanks!

Matt

Straight on, I fitted some to my cupra last weekend.

They were for sale but due to no interest I fitted them instead!

Cheers Matt,

If they were the 18" from the cupra R i'd certainly be interested but as you've now fitted them you may not want to sell.....??

Yep got them on mine too and the beauty of it is that they will fit nicely over brakes if you ever decide to uprate them

I always liked the genuine LCR rims. I changed from the original MK1 16'' multispokes to the 17'' starfish to the Audi RS4 replica's then onto the LCR rims. I plan to get them painted in an anthracite colour next. Rather that than change rims again :happy:

If you dont find a set look on the Borbet uk website for the new LW, they look just like the wheels you are after but maybe better?
