speak to Forge, as you originally ordered red they may exchange them for blue when they are back in stock :shrug:

Good choice dude :thumbup:

205/40 or 215/35's ?? You need to know what size fits the Mk4 cupra wheels as they're 17s too.

On a side note fella, what you doing with your other wheels ;) I need some to roll around on during the winter!

205/40's or 215/40's. It's just the higher profile that is causing issues I think. The 215's might scuff as they are 10mm wider (obviously) than the 205's.

I have this problem quite a lot too! Always say to passengers "watch the door on the floor" and they're like "what the hell?" But when they get out they realise. :p

A 7J wheel should fit with 20mm spacers. Anything more than 7J - e.g some Audi wheels are 7.5J and you need 10mm spacers, otherwise it'll get a bit too close to the arch for comfort!

I've had mine tucked at the back with 7J - 205/40/17 and when you hit a decent bump it has scuffed the side wall of the tyre on the lip of the rear wing liner, but it's ok unless you have a lot of weight in the back.

i think there the same i pushed mine in a bit more mate i do like how yours is set up theo i must get some more clips on like yours

i didnt mean mine was better mate i ment its alot better ic

Haha! I know what you meant! :lol:

Mine top pipe is pushed in as far as it'll go! It's up against the FMIC so I cant go any further. The reason I double jubilee all my joints is cos it blew a hose off on RS tuning rollers. So dont want that happening again!

thats sorted then 205/40/17s just need to sort out the colour :think:

Just double check the width of the tyre. I wonder why it's got 225's on it as standard. :think:

Gooner Mike has those exact wheels on his so might be worth double checking with him to see what he's running. But 205/40/17's will fit on both a 7J wheel and 7.5J.

As for colour, I think your Sport wheels looked good colour wise, so maybe similar?

As for the last page, if my mum hit my car I'd go ape!!! Like I had with my car, doesnt matter how much you look after it, doesnt mean anyone else cares! :(
