looks really fresh nice work

I really like the wheels, but i do think there a little lost in the arch.

Inch or two bigger and it would look amazing! Still look smart though dude, I'd be happy with um :)

I swear silver 6n2's always look good lol.

What size are the wheels?

Eliminate the arch gap and it'l look perfect :D

i actually really like them!

they are mims 1900, was going to get the lips polished but i might leave them alone!

Just space them 15-20mm and they will fill the arches nice :)

was gonna say. would probs look better on 195/45. Small tyres for the sake of small tyres doesnt always work. still looks pretty nice tho 8-)

195/45 15s are only a few mm larger (overall diameter) than 155/70 13's (standard tyres on old small cars) so try the 195's more comfort looks ace and will get the speedo more accurate.

loving it mate, looks wicked!

i too think 195s would look better : )

195/45 would be perfecto. Fills the arch near perfect in that other pic, and wouldn't be quite as wide

Am I misunderstanding tyre sizes here? 195 is the width of the tyre isn't it? So surely you'd want a bigger profile like 45 or 50 to fill the arch a bit better?

I'm not trying to be clever, just don't understand, can someone explain...

Btw wheels look good in those last two photos, a little lower and would look spot on

iirc the profile is a percentage of the width e.g. 195
