Think they'd look PHAT, on my GTi if I slammed it!!

Found out they're 8x15" WRD mesh 3 piece split rims, where do get these babies, and how much...bet they're an arm and a leg!

for a 9x16 you are looking at 609 euros each i think!! which is about Â£398 each!! so ur looking at about Â£1600 for the rims. then tyres, shipping etc etc.

let me tell you that on 15x7 and stock susp i user to touch on hard corners. now that im a little lower (70 mm front and 60mm rear) it will scrub at every opertunaty i.e there is a 1/2" drop in my drive and if i go down it at more that 5-10 mph you hear a huge scraaape. btw i think they are still settling

that is on kw, which are ment to be a hard ride, mine are set half hard at the back and full hard up front and still feel too soft for me

ps im running 195/50/15 bfgoodridge profiler which are renound for being a little wider than the rest , meaning in reality my tread is closer to a 205/215 but they grip soooo well its worth it

195/45/15 will solve the rubbing issues, even looks a bit better too!

yes but the price of 45 profile is mad
and we all know 13"x 12" is the way to go

Yup, prices are insane on the 45 series, but still worth it methinks. I'll be getting those when the time comes...
