Do you not find you scrape the sump a lot?

My 9n on the 16s had a very low sump. However, it is a 1.9 TDI.

Did you sell the monoblocks?

Fair enough :)

Shame, I'd have been working out shipping costs if not. I love most monoblocks, they really suit the 9N/9N3 for some reason.

Still not convinced but the pic helps :) - I liked your monoblocks tho.

9N/9N3s seem to suit porsche-like rims so this could work out.

Not a fan myself, Monoblocks and LMs were much better.

The stance is nice though.
