Tim your right it doesnt but bare in mind that those rm's have a stupidly low et... the borbets would tuck about 15mm more than those and if i do go with 8.5/9's id pull the arches around 15mm so it would work out nicely!! Those rm's are 15x9s btw... this is just an idea, lets see if i keep the damn car!!

To be honest, its just the scene-ness in me that wants to run uber wide wheels, in reality 9's will probably look stupid, especially from behind, regardless of the arch work, if i do keep the car, 8.5" RM's wil probably go on... Or maybe some image wheels lol i dunno

Too VIP, would suit a bigger car lol.. im fussy aren't i... i want a bbs rm/rs without bolts and thats all! lol.. i like your wheels a lot, prefer em to Th lines but our cars would then look identical minus the smoothage... i think ive just got a fetish for mesh wheels lol.
On a sidenote, seeing that you're online and im in the middle of trying to change my sidelights to some new, brighter leds.... i was wondering if u could tell me how to get the damn sidelights out. My mate did it for me last time and im stuck!!

Ronal LSs and get some spacers? and 165/50 tyres to get a bit of stretch going.
