Default 95 Aero Running 8"x18"

Hi,

I have just bought a new 2000 95 Aero and just so happen to have a set of 8"x18" BBS-RX wheels from my old 1995 900.
8)

Will they fit ?....not yet tryed as I am waiting delivery.

What are the implications in running these bad boys .

All Thoughts Welcome

Hi and welcome,
The problem will arise if they are not the correct offset and with the gm900/9-3 being a different offset to the 9-5 I would imagine this would be the case!
All I could suggest is to try them and see how it handles and also to check for clearance problems.You may find it's over camber sensitive and torque steers too much,plus you may find the tyres rub the outer side of the rear arches
But it has to be worth a try
