16x9 on a 6n?

Featured Replies

I'll be spending my cash getting it back to a show worthy standard, but she'll never be a trailer queen... I love driving her too much!

Oh and Jack, I really don't fancy damaging the £1500 exhaust system, so it may go slightly lower, but it'll never be slammed to the deck!

ye but youd proberly never get lower enough to catch the exhaust on 16s

look at ashs other polo its got a bang on stance and its on 16s

Didnt that 'Polomodifedbreaking' used to have borbet A's on his :ninja:

yeah but they're weren't 9s and he didnt have his arches done.. and they had big tyres all round.

and he's not as fast as this is... :lol:

no where near. i beat him without even tryin. to say he got a vr6. my 1.8t polo eats him fo breakfast. sayin that my mates 1.3 mk3 polo can nearly keep up wi him looooooool

Looks tidy.

Fancy selling them to me?!

love it!

Not feeling it mate, overkill I think.

They just look waaayyy too big for my liking.

Yeah its different. but different isn't always good.

:) that was the plan... big wheels, big power.

big fail...

wheels will prob look better in real life, trial fitted the same wheels but only 7's on roly's old 6n. They looked ok, but in the pics we took they looked shite.

What bhp is this running?

Sourced an IHI for it and a new fuel pump, then another mapping session, should see over 300 :)

must be good, in a straight line! 8-)

suprisingly good round corners too tbh, KW V1's. Plus you've got pleanty of power to pull you round most bends! :)

how is it a fail?

it's a fail because he'd rather have speakers than power. lol.

the powers not the fail, the wheels are.

can you not get 15s over those brakes?

then it wouldnt be a fail

He probably could, but to pull of 15's in them arches he would have to be quite low and as he's said he doesn't want to be too low and what's the point in having all that power when he has to worry about scraping everywhere

Nah, 15s with tyres, instead of elastic bands, and a nice even amount of small-ish arch gap all round will look sweet and still perform well 8-)

look way to big for the car imo.

From some angles i think they do look a bit big. Maybe its just the wheel 'cause poundie's schmidts are 16s and they dont look massive. But for me wide 15s are the perfect size on a 6n/6n2.

However, refreshing to see big wheels rather than the 14" trend a year ago.

liking the direction.. glad 2 see you still having fun with it. ;) dont think people really understand how big the arches are on the car n what a nightmare a big block engine can be. always the option of the shallow sump?

mayb worth also looking at bigger injectors? heard vxr ones are cheap as. worth looking into all things b4 mapping session.

Alreet David,

long time no speak, how're you keeping?

I'm going to be doing some more engine work before another mapping session, bigger turbo, bigger injectors and a bigger fuel pump :)

I've tweaked the ride height alot since these pics were taken, it's looking alot more respectable now!

Sump will be staying as is, it's not that bad tbh, it's the exhaust i'm more worried about, I've bought some sump sealant for it (fucking £18 a tube!) and hopefully i'll fix that leak.

i'v got some 15" compomotive MO's that need to be on your 20v polo.

16's are too much! way too big...
