I'm tempted with modding my Touran to keep me interested in it for a few more years, therefore please can someone photoshop it with a nice set of wheels and if possible a 50mm drop. Wheels I've seen are; Golf 18" Charleston alloys Golf 18" Vancouver alloys Golf 18" mk5 r32 wheels 19" cades Apollo The std wheels on it now are 16", hopefully this will help with the scale.
Here's something I just did, not sure about scale but I hope you get the idea... Lowered it a bit and added the 18" Charleston alloys (I think) The angle of the photo isn't dead centre so it's hard to place the alloys properly.
Cheers, that looks quite cool. I ended up buying some genuine mk5 18" r32 (omanyt)wheels as there was a guy selling some on my doorstep at a decent price. Going to fit them this weekend. Can you put the r32 wheels on it? Cheers
Thanks for looking for me and sorting out the image. Here is an actual pic of the Touran with the wheels on.
My mate has a Touran now and is interested to know how you're getting on with these new wheels and tyres. They certainly look the part. How is the ride quality and handling now?
The ride quality is only slightly effected but not crashy at all, my wife doesn't even notice. The handling tho has been improved but I'm now looking for coilovers lol. Tell your mate to go for it, he won't regret it, they totally transform the look and handling and don't really alter the ride quality, probably just me being over picky.
Cheers, one other question are the R32 tyres a straight swap for rolling radius? Clearly if there's a precedent for these wheels on this car it would be rude not to follow it
Sorry been having problems with my internet, now sorted tho. I know that these wheels are fitted as std to the r-line, however I can't find any info to say what size the tyre wall is. This is the guide I went off, as you can see the tyres for 18" wheels for a Touran are 225/40/18 and this is the same as an r32 golf....
