Thanks mate, wanted some bbs rm's but they go for silly money, these came up on my local forum for a good price so jumped at the chance to get them. Thinking maybe 185/45's now, tiny bit of stretch but still good handling.

185/45's would give you plenty of stretch in fairness, most people with 7J wheel's run 205's so to run 185's on 7.5J wheels is plenty enough 8) . Very wise choice of wheels Chris, everybody loves RM's but a genuine set cost crazy money.

Cant wait to see some pics when you get them fitted.

What are you going to do with the RXII's now?

Thanks mate, yeah i cant wait to get them on, next weekend hopefully.

Im not sure really dude, either keep them and when i sell the car sell with the rx2's and sell the ronals separate, or swap the rx'2 for a decent set of g60's to run throught he winter.

Your RX'II are worth more than a set of G60's in fairness mate, might be worth selling them on and buying a brand new set for the winter months.

They have gone up in a price since last year but they are still relatively cheap

Make sure you get locking wheel nuts Chris because if we do ever arrange a UK Polo's meet I will probably end up stealing these wheels :)
