Chrome wheel rings

Beitrag von xpbernardo »

As I said before, I'm taking the Cosmic rims off and put some Kadett sport rims 13"

I want to mount chrome wheel rings on them. Do you know where can I find compatible ones? I'm changing the ET from 37 to 28 or 25

Like these https://hubcapmike.com/13-stainless-ste ... auty-ring/ ? Are you going to move the wheel centers inward to decrease the ET ? Are you aware that the SR wheels from a Kadett B or a GT already have the lower ET from the factory ?

Yes I am
The Cosmic that I have now have the 37 offset like the Kadett ones. Still room to bring them out.
I want to make them like eke did. He states that
his ET is 28 so no worries.

ON my Kadett Coupé I used the stainlesssteel trimrings from an old VW Passat, the shape was not rounded, instead it got a wedgeshape on the outside what made the Wheel optically look deeper.

You might find those Rings for cheap money in used condition on your local scrapyard or online.

The 2000 ccm Version of the Kadett was also available with 5.5x13 Sportrim, which is 0,5 Inch wider than the Standard Kadett Sportrim.

ET37 wheels don't fit without spacers up front on a Rekord C.

That´s another reason for the ET modification :)

Tiefe depth 4cm
100% sure they are compatible?.. Sometimes they say "universal" but then it's not the case... 😅
