Sam C Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 AllDoes anyone know if Dolomite Sprint wheels will fit on a GT6? Bloody hope so because I've just started bidding on some! ??)Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desperate Damson Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 Should fit but you might have to put spacers on the front. I fitted a pair on a Spitty and the top of the front wishbone rubbed on the inside of the rim. I am assuming that the spitfires wishbone is the same as a GT6.Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Lewis Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 one of our guys has them on his spitfire and the fronts only foul the antiroll bar stud which needs cutting off but you need a tight lock to get there. Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparky_spit Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 Don't forget you'll need the wheelnuts for them as well. If you use standard Spit/GT6 nuts they will not fit properly and wear the nut-seats very quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deleted User Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 I know the wheels you mean, was eyeing them up the other day, they look great in my opinion! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deleted User Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 dont under estimate the cost of 3/8"unf tube wheel nuts for these wheels, rimmers price is bloody stupid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
99176 Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 You will need spacers, longer studs and wheel nuts (not the ali ones, use steel). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rossybrown Posted October 24, 2008 Share Posted October 24, 2008 A little late in my reply, but: I've fitted doly wheels to my Mk 3 spit which has GT6 front suspension. I enedde up with 15mm spacers at the front, 10mm spacers at the rear (Jigsaw racing). 43mm wheel studs all round (Jigsaw racing) and the dolly wheel nuts (Quiller).Probably cost £100 for that lot and I'm not happy with the spacers as they are just flat and not hub centric so I am looking into having some hub centric ones made up for better location. Let me know if you want some........... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
