Hi guys just a quick one, ive bought the schumacher low profile cut staggers and trying to fit them to slim reg lite rims but they dont seem to seat properly. Am I using the wrong wheels? Also do they just take standard inserts? Cheers.

Don't use inserts, cut the wheel narrow

Don't use the insert if your using the slim wheels (u4104) they don't need to be cut down

Even without the insert the tyre doesnt seat fully because the lip on the tyres to big for the wheel do u mean cut the tyre more narrow gav???

Depends on the width of wheel you have and schumacher also have a smaller diameter wheel too so it depends on which wheel you have

I think I need a bigger wheel! Is there a different part number for the bigger wheel? I got the u4104 wheels.

Damo, check the Schumacher section, I've answered your question there.

In a nutshell don't use slim wheels with any current tyres, give it a read.

Whats the difference in handling characteristics between the standard cut staggers and the Low Profile Cut Staggers?

Low profile without inserts give more steering than wide ones with inserts
