I would go for 185's mate if its your daily ride, 165's are a bit extreme for 8J rims

Thanks for the advice. Yeah i think ill go for 185/45 being a daily and these cotswold roads not being the most forgiving. They will fill the arch more to which is good. They should be here tomorrow and then tyres at the end of the month. Photos to follow.

Ive trailed the wheels tonight and found a few problems. One the bore is to big so will need spigots of 57.1 - 63.4. Two the front callipers hit the wheels. So i guess spacing the front out is the only option. But can you put spigots over spacers. Will i need hub centric ones with the spigots? Thanks

Fitted the Momo 280 today. Few problems with it though. The indicators wont shut off now automatically. Does anyone have a guide or a picture of how they have connected theirs up. That would be great. Thanks

You've taken off the airbag slip ring by the sounds of it mate. This is what cancels the indicators

Ill try to add fix it. Thanks for the advice. How can I make coilovers firmer. There is to much travel in mine at the moment. The back is on the last threads and fronts got about an inch. Any suggestions would be great.
