I got my new rims for my bora today!!!

[Dub_Star_V6]

I've not been convinced with the RS4 split-spoke design on the Bora (prefer the previous 9-spoke model) but they actually look pretty damn good! Props to you, Sir

Info on wheel size and tyres or ban!

[Mrk_Mickey]

Damn dude, they look fantastic

[Mr_Drozz]

for fear of been banned :cP they are 18 x 8.0 running on 225x40's...

They look really good mate, nice move.

Snowy.

Choice mate! Definitely lower the ol' girl though!

18 x 8.0 on 225x40

May have some photos of my own by the weekend

What rubber did you go with?

My Mum's Passat has the OEM +1 option (17x7.5) on 45 series and it is a big improvement over stock. I didn't find the ride compromised at all, not crashy or uncomfortable either.

How're you finding these ones so far?

i have been looking to get the same style wheels, now I think you have made my mind up.

Ahh sweet, what did you get?... Yeah unfortunetly the ride has been effected, It's not too bad but noticably more harsh than it was before

[Dub_Star_V6]

All should be revealed tomorrow

I was pleasantly surprised at the difference going to the 225/45-17 made to Mum's Passat, without compromising ride or noise. She runs Pirelli Dragons.

I've driven on 40 series before (as my GF has 215/40-17 Kumho 711s on her Corolla) and I don't find the ride particularly harsh. Not as plush as 55 series of course, but hardly uncomfortable.
