got them for £40 on eBay. Think I'll leave the Audi caps on them, just for a bit of difference.

Those tyres are very huge and will put your speedo out - if you plan on using them. They look like 195/65's you need 195/55 or 195/50's

it will be hard to stretch tyres onto a 6.5" rim, will look quite stupid also. i wont be keeping them tyres on that are in the pic. if i put low pros on will it set my speedo out too?

The tyres i said would keep it fine. The 9N has big arches and 15s are a wee bit small and sticking too lower profiles will not look that nice - but thats my opinion

I thought about having steelies.... changed my mind and went for A3 wheels, just gotta get round to having them on.

15's are a bit small...cos mine has got them on standard n i've got coilovers...

depends on your wheel and tyre size now!
