This must be the right thread to post my centercaps question

Hi

Did anybody have problems fitting Polaris centercaps to a 240?
I know I do. Rear ones fit just fine, but front bearing cap protrudes too much to the outside so I can't make the wheel cap fit!
Anybody have an idea how to work this around except hammer the bearing cap flat?

Thanks!
Andrew
 
Here is a couple shots.

I've posted 'em before but can't say no to a Galaxy thread!

The car has since had a properly painted front spoiler on, the petrol cap replaced and the stickers taken off :)

This is what it looked like when I got it too:

Enquired at Stratstone in Birmingham yesterday about the price of Polaris wheels - ?292.00 per wheel without tyres. Not so sure I want them now LOL:omg:
 
Can we ban fake Polaris from this thread please? It's far too full of these common Yankee dogs and their soft copies at present :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

EDIT: They can be had for ~£100 a rim brand new if you know where to look.

cheers

Where's that then James? I could buy one a month! :-P
 
They were on German eBay a few weeks back, and have been several times. I think they were about ?120 a rim.

cheers

We don't deserve to win, given how we're playing at the moment! I've got to get a cheap point in while I can before someone mentions 240 turbos, 242s, 780s, etc, etc...

Des...are you looking to sell your Galaxies when you upgrade to 17s? If so, give me a shout. I'm only just up the road in Newark, and a I have a 240 which is looking lonely on steels. Give me a shout anyway, and we'll meet up some time. There's a VOC meet at a pub in Oxton every month, and I'm sure you'd be allowed to come along as long as you agree to listen to why you should join :)

Are you asking what tyre size you need? My housemate has Polaris (yes, the real kind you Eiker people :rofl:), and he's rolling on 215/40s or something like that. I think 225/45s are more common and better value. I can check those figures tomorrow.

cheers

I like the XC90 rims you have on the 900 Griz, love them, if I had the choice between the Polaris and the rims you have, I'd choose them.

Hey, your not coming any where near my wheels. It took ages to clean them last time.

Tyre size on rear is 225/45 and the fronts are 215/45. I will be going to 225 on the front when the tyres need replacing.

Hope to see you soon anyway ctcnetwork.
