    the wheels are aftermarket OZ Saturns.

    they were on an Audi A3 originally.

    the guy had them for sale for a while and ended up putting a sticker price of $200 for it.

    i was lucky enough to get to him first

    I just rolled my guard lips myself (wouldn't recommend doing it yourself BTW ) all I did with the wheel arch flares was trim them back level with the rolled guard lips and used double sided to attach them back on. You can also put a rivet right down the bottom for piece of mind.

    Rims look da shizzle btw

    They are a realy nice simple wheel that looks tops. Less is more and they do the trick nicely.

    thanks again guys!!!

    is it possible to roll the rear guards without triming the plastic?

    im happy to scrub on plastic as opposed to metal......

    I wouldn't recommend it, If they rub hard enough they'd probably get ripped off the car and will make a god awful mess, better to neatly trim them then have big jagged shards of plastic missing. When you trim the inside lip of the plastic arches you can't see it from outside, only if you're under the car.

    Rims look good mate, fat spokes on VR's are always a good combination
