Looking at a set of 13" banded steels, with an offset of et 20, would these fit straight on to my 30, or will i need spacers of some sort? They are also 8j and 7j wide

ET20 should be alright.....cyclones are ET18 iirc.

You'll need the tiny 247 brakes for 13" wheels though, so if you've upgraded to 266s they wont fit anyway.

Depending on tyres (and as long as the 8s go on the back) youll be fine.

Wouldn't bother with them, being 13" imo

When you say 247 brakes, is that the diameter of them?

Id agree, they'll look to small imo and if your real low on them youll catch everywhere.

Yes sorry, 247mm discs on the front. Standard on the XUD phase 2's, which Im guessing yours is from the profile pic. Smile

Yeah, ill check just to be sure, owner before me said it had gti6 brakes on but i think they've since been changed.
well my car hasn't been lowered at all so i think they will be fine, but with some chunkier tyres and a bit of stretch, i think they would look alright. Just been recently powder coated as well.

GTi6 brakes are 283mm....no chance of fitting over those if that's the case lol.

13" wheels will look rediculas unless you were scraping the skirts on the floor. 15" min imo.

Hmmm, yeah tbf 13" would be a tad on the small side. I really like the banded steels, and this set that have come up are really decent and close. Good value as well, just a shame to let them go.

You could always try them, bandeds will always hold there money so can just resell if need be

Yeah, well i can easily get hold of some 15" steels and get them banded for 150 and spray them myself. May be the better option tbh
