i almost brought those style ^^^ wheel for my tolly, but decided on the mk5 r32 wheels instead.... i was glad i made that decision, they dont look good in real life, although standard rs4 wheels do as i have them on my mk4 bezza, just the matt silver and matt black with not a perfect meet of colours at the edges doesnt look good imo

my opinion of course if anybody has them i dont mean to offend

thats what car mod'ing is all about, choice and personel taste. Anyone that gets offended should never ask for opinions or suggest stuff. It would be totally boring if we all did the same.

As a side note - I've just realised I've been on here since 8PM! The wife is right, SCN is my facebook!

Im going to order a set after christmas.Before i do can someone please confirm for me that they fit with no problems like the following.
1.Do they catch the inner arch on full lock???.
2.The car is lowered with eibach springs,will i still be able to take passengers??
3.What is the handling like?my misses has got 18's and they are fine,is there any differences with 19's??

Any info would be fantastic before i lay out 600 big ones or bad story's about 19's would be much appriciated if there are any.

Many thanks
:)

Hi there just to give you some feedback on 19's on a Leon. I have a Leon Cupra R with 19 inch Khans. It has standard suspension, I have had three of my fattest friends in the back without any issues. Road holding and all seems fine but nothing to compare to as they have been on the car since I bought it, my steering is quite heavy tho.
