Cool Mk1 Wheels, Help Wanted

how low are you looking to go? I would say 7x15 et25 is probably best suited to you. If you run 7x15 et25 with 195/45 I would say you could get away with a 40mm drop. If you want a 60mm drop, you will need to trim the arches back a little.

Nail on the head mate...it does seem that all the so called 'nice cars' have specially adapted hubs or arches.

This is about as Low as i'm going...maybe a few more notches on the rear

i can't believe your getting impatient now mike after all the time you have had to wait

 

well you need some travel in your suspension - especially on uk roads - and especially with your engine as they say over here "keep her between the hedges"

Personally Id go for the rh classics, they look ace. You gona do a wee up
date in the members motors section soon Vento Mike? havent heard
much from you in a while. Cars looking good.

 

I like your chunky 5 spokes, stick with em

 

The compos will fit over 280mm brakes, no sure about the others suggested, 14s definately will not.

Have a search on ebay, I picked up a set of 5 compo th, for 150 quid, then sprayed them up my self.
