I read!

Those 15's were the right choice.

How much did the grill set you back? Just an eBay one?

Haha cheers mate. Yeah I decided the 17's were too big and flashy for my liking and the 15's remind me of a cheap one piece rs or something.

The grill was about $60 I think on eBay but it got lost at customs so the seller resent one for me. Fingers crossed that the lost one comes and I will have a spare to sell

Here's a link to the eBay listing of the grill. Definitely recommend this seller. Haven't tried to fit the grill yet though

If it ends up showing up i may be interested.

I agree the 17's on mine looked to out of place.

17's can be done right but you have to be low! 15's can be done right too but imo they need to be wide and 16's well 16's are just perfect i run 16's now but i only have 45mm clearance road to sump.

No worries. If it shows up I'll probably put it up on here, I'll try pm you first though if I remember

Yeah I agree. I dont think 17's are for me. I'd like some nice wide 15's or 16's but the money isn't there for it now so I'll just go with these and maybe space them out. I have three sets of oem 16's if I ever change my mind. I think I'll try get these 15's fitted then wind down the coils a little. That leads me to my next question. What tyres for 15x6.5 ?

[Zalemate]

go for 195/50 i reckon you'll have to go low!

[ffoff]

195/50 is a massive tyre! I'd be going 195/45 at the most.

[anthony--t]

I have 205/45/16 at the moment. I don't think 50 would be huge but 45 would get me lower but I'm starting to re think these wheels and go for something wider. That way I won't have to buy again later on.
I'm also not sure how these would go regarding centre bore and lugs have sent pm's to two guys on here who I know have had a set identical to these. See what they say and go from there.

Today started the car it started the same way as always went to drive and it turned itself off? Tried starting it again nothing. Jumped it got it running then cut out again. Jumped AGAIN took it for a spin up the street and it just wasn't idling right and kept threatening to cut out. I'm pretty sure my battery is due for replacing but that wouldn't cause the car to cut out would it? Just not start it. Maybe alternator or fuel problem? Any ideas guys?

Dear god. It's hit the common 'vr wall' time for a new engine.





Hahaha. Just kidding I have no idea. Loving the work.
