That's pretty much as I'd guess. My guess for the front would be ET35 rather than 40 on a 8" rim but you're on air and 40 will probably allow a nice tuck.

Can't wait to see it when done.

I'd like to know the specs on the white car above too.

I've just put 17s on my 9n. They're 7.5" et32 and I'm now hankering after something a little wider.

Shi* that is mean! I love the matt black effect around the front grille! That is frickin' amazing! Nice work!

Little suggestion though, do you not think honeycombe grilles in replacement of the stock grilles would look better?

Looking good!

I loved the monoblocks but there's something about a dish on 9n/9n3 that works very well. ZW1s do that the best (for 17s).
