Well the 8's at the back with a 15mm Spacer - Dubmiester were meant to have ordered the 20mm's (I think there great for PLates - anything else there usless) And also 7's at the front with again 15mm spacer, but want a 20mm at the front.

The tyres are 165/50/15 Toyo 888's all round (Road Leagal Track Tyres :shock: )

I lowered the car today a bit more, and better quality Pics lol

Crikey, so they're currently 15X8 with 15mm spacers on the rear, and 7X15 with 15mm spacers on the front?!

What offset are the alloys?

do you have any problems with scrubbing?

Wow I can't believe that, just looked up the offset and they're 25 and 50, I thought stick out a lot more. Must be the insane tyres you have on them! :)

Yeh yeh I've got 8X15s with et 25, and if I put 20mm spacers on mine they'd scrub at the standard height!!

165/50s are quite intriguing 8)
