Alloy Wheels??

If your car hasn't got alloy wheels can you put alloy wheels on without having to change the brakes?

as long as its the same size or bigger , be sure to check the off set .
Yes but use a torque wrench to tighten the alloys to correct ft/lbs. Wheel nuts unbalanced can fracture the alloy.
yes
Yes. go to tirerack.com to find wheels that will clear everything. They have a toll free # for any queations you may have. American Racing Wheels has an on-line site also.
Yes Plus If You Have Alloys You Get Better Mpg
Yep. You'll get a better ride, too, because you'll reduce the unsprung weight - the main reason for having them.
yes. most cars can take 17" depending on the make of car. you're local alloy wheel dealer will be able to advise you of size etc.
Its like putting on a different set of wheels, simple as that. Alloy wheels dont effect anything else, just makes your car look slick.
if they do rub the brakes when they are on the car you can just get some wheel spacers to bring them out a little
u can put alloys on most cars without any alterations to the brakes. you have to make sure there is enough room for the calipers and they won't snag on balance weights. all wheels have different offsets which need to be correct for your car. this can be found from any reputable wheel stockist. i would recomend you get many quotes and even consider 2nd hand refurbished wheels. because halfords is the biggest certainly doesn't mean you will get the best advice and the cheapest wheels. good luck
yes that is easy if you decided to put a set of alloy wheels after getting out original ones ,just the thing you are better doing,is to find me,I can offer you many kinds of alloy wheels
