Hey, here's some pictures of the wheels I've had in the past:

Image

Lowered 60mm front, 40mm back, RH Cups, 15X7J, ET37, spaced out 20mm on the back.

Image

Same lowerage, BBS RXII's from a Golf cabriolet, 16x6.5 spaced out 15mm front, 20mm back.

I much prefer the stance of the car with the RH cups on :mrgreen:

Welcome to the forum :)

hey! welcome to the site man!

anyway, here's a pic of my wheels, Brock B2 supercups with DIY custom painjob and polishing. 195/45/r15 tyres on 15x7j et 25.

on standard height at the mo as its my daily grind and i want to keep it practical, dont know if dropping 60/40 will cause me any scubbing problems.

16x7 Dare V2's on 195/45/16 Was the first set of alloys i ever bought! Used to hate them but genuinely think they look pretty good in this pic, minus the lampost lol

16x7 Huhrer's on 195/40/16 Were eventually sold to Bryony, who in turn sold them on, loved these wheels! :D

Image

Lowered 60mm on springs and shocks

Wheels are BBS Ra's 15x7J et38 with 195/50/15 Goodyear Eagle F1's. These are gettin changed to 195/45/15 due to the inner arches gettin worn away by the tyes :lol:

Anyone hope that helps a bit better ;)
