Hey, was wanting some advice.

I've had a 6N for years but have upgraded to the 6N2 valver (100bhp)

Was wanting some ideas of wheels (15s, possibly 16s), respective lowerage without rubbing and back boxes to check out as i don't really know what wheel styles etc look good on the 6N2.

I know most of it is down to personal opinion but it would be nice to get some styles to check out

Cheers

The 100bhp version is pretty rare - nice find

with 16's and 195,45,16 tyres you can easily go -75mm on coil-overs without any rubbing

yea damn right they are! i've been looking for one for ages and finally found one in nottingham...but i live in the north east of scotland! Flying down on friday to collect it and drive it home (close to 300 miles).

thanks for the advice polopowah, was thinking of just doing springs as i'm pretty skint after buying the car, but was told going around -50 on springs would wreck the shocks...is this true?

quite fancy some ronals...

-50 on springs is your absolute maximum really on standard shocks, long-term anyway.
