Evening all, Merry Christmas and almost Happy New Year etc...
As title really. We had a few days in Berlin Christmas week, and saw lots and lots of cars running steelies, with winter tyres. Got me thinking. Would there be any steel wheels, say 17s that clear the discs and calipers suitable for some winters? I'm intending to buy some nice 19 or 20s for summer use (when the tyres on my 17s need replacing) and using my 17s as winters. Cheers. John.

There are no OEM steel rims. These should fit with a centre bore adapter

Cheers Matt. I've been hunting around on eBay and found similar things...
I'd like something OEM. Ideally from the D4. I remember a member a while ago fitted some D4 alloys to his 3 and it really suited the car. My 17s just don't suit the car one bit. IMHO.

Not sure if it was mine but I fitted some 19" D4 alloys that I bought from another member to my D3 Daily, pic attached if it helps. They needed some spigot ring adapters as the centre bore is bigger on a D4 than standard D3 wheels the ET was also pretty favourable to help get them almost level with the arches

They look like standard D3 19" Sport FL wheels to me.
