hey buddy, i have 17's and they do rub. but only when mates in the back or carrying luggage or record bags lol. and also when i hit a pot hole other than that normally ok.

You could heat up the back guards and roll them, i am aiming to do this at some stage as my mate bought a device for it. If i could borrow it off him and your keen i could bring it up and we could do it to your rear guards.

otherwise oz racing wheels 16" used to be the wheels from "Seat's" website back in the day when i was inquiring.

Well if that's the case, I might have a think about it... I would probably roll my guards if I choose to go with 17", if you could let me know when and if you get hold of that device that would be great!

Cheers!

On my drive home tonight, the trip computer will show 200km. Which indicates my brakes have been run in and are ready for some fun!

Anyone interested in a drive on Sunday? I'm hoping to go to Buttermans Track!

Paintballing is great fun! People who haven't done it before, just don't understand why the bruises are worth it!

Well I'm going to Bendigo instead to take a peak at daves rims! The roof will be wrapped tomorrow, I forgot to say we bought the wrong size first time around. So I have some spare gloss black wrap if anyone wants some. And I'm getting the exhaust looked tomorrow morning... Then a polish up and photos!

That will rub like crazy.

Im pretty sure the specs should be stamped in the wheels?

yeah checked for the stamped sizes but couldn't see any. this makes me think they may not be genuine TSW but if not they are a bloody good copy right down to the indented badges.

does anyone know if you measure rim to rim or barrel to barrel to get did. they deffo don't look like 17's, i'll put them against the 17's on my car to compare.
