Cheers fellas yeah got them today 200 mile round trip so bit Of a drive took 5 hours cause of changing the wheels over aswell. Not great when severely hungover !.
But yeah straight swap for my SE alloys + £150 his way... Great deal both our tyres are fine and these are running nanco 145/55r16 I think.
Il get some better pics...
pics up...









also done a straight swap for my vw ariel for his honda s2000 one...


all coments welcomed
im over the moon they have no major damage at all, theres a bit of rub but its only on the arch lining so no biggy,
i also found out that when my car was in a body shop about a year back they rlled my rear arches so thats a plus lol id never noticed as i dint ask for it to be done and they didnt tell me

Not to keen on the wheels personally I think there's to many spokes....... Maybe different in the flesh : /
Plus on the arch roll tho... If they have done it.....

I do like them, how much clearance you got between the tyre and your arch ?

Yeah I didn't notice it my friend came withe me and he noticed as the lip wasn't there and compared to the other 6n2 the were slightly larger.
Ahh thanks for the opinion, I can see what you mean but I do like them I think they suit alright. And are a massive turnaround from my 14" SE alloys

Il have measure tomorrow but it's not a lot lol. there is rub but as I said it's only on the arch lining plastic so it's not a major eventually il put like 5-7mm spacers on the rear.

They look smaller than 56mm so your best removing them and measuring the diameter matered6n2 wrote:Ha there only 16" bout as bog as you can go on this car though. Wanna replace the centre caps with vw ones. Dunno what size they need though.
