Nan 15" just right , 16"s with T1-S's on a me polo ( droped 40mm) would rub me thinks. but when i go to elites in london to get um i can allways make sure if 16"'z would fit with out rubing , problem is i not a small or light bloke ( 6"4 , 18 stone ) so i think with 16" if i was to brake hard or floor it of the lights it would rub ....... i seen loads of corsa's with this problem and its so sad :D so i defo don't want it on me car :D

Getting BRAND NEW Evo 5z. 15". Tyres, fitting, VAT, Valves all of it for only...

£395.

Pretty good. I could get Evo 6z for £390. But I prefere the split spoke look. Going down there for a look. May even go for titanium finish or something, thats the price for Silver normal alloys.

Better than another place which quoted £440.

Now those wheels are sweet, and despite the £££ very very cool. I would still love to see them on a car, certainly curvy aint they?

Well I got some wheels for £395. Excite R08, cause that Fox version is now discontinued and had been replaced with some that look s**t.

The design is very similar. I ended up going to South West Tyres, Clevdon. Very very good place.

Anyway whilst here...

Red Caliper Paint, anyone know where I can get some cheap? Like £10 and not £20? Im looking for red. Only place I ave found so far was ebay (£12 on auction with 6 days still to go) and another site was £20 with free P&P. Or is it all that expensive?
