My D90s are getting to the point where they need a refurb. Got a lot of other higher priority jobs to do first! I prefer the teledial alloys so would consider changing if it was going to be straight forward.

Would they just swap over?
Would there be any big handling difference?

Think they are only 15" as opposed to 16" D90s. Most people seem to be trying to stick bigger wheels on, so I'm thinking smaller may be bad.

Cheers
Mike

don't think they would look very good, but if you go that route you will need ET52 offset, you may find some 16 inch teledials if you are lucky, but rare as hens teeth

Hi Lindsay, thanks. I think they would give an even more 80s look. Each to their own! I will chekc this ET52 offset out and will definatly keep an eye out for some 16 inch ones.

Hi Mike :)

If it helps, the early 928 Teledials were all 16 inch...but the offset is 65 all round I think....

All the best Brett :)

Early 220 turbo teledials should fit 16" but wider.

15" wheels will not fit over S2 brakes at all. I had a puncture with mine just after having all S2 corners fitted. The Bl00dy spacesave was the original 15" one & wouldn't fit over the calliper. I ended up getting relayed to Bradford & getting a work colleague to run me up the road to get a new tyre fitted to the 16" D90 GRRRRRRR :evil:
