Good choice with the wheels.

They 15x7 or 15x8? Also sorry to say but to clear the 1.4 8v brakes you will have to run 8mm spacers on the front. I'm running 3mm on mine but my calipers had to be ground down a shit load.

they are the 15x7's i bottled running 8's as i didnt want to have to do too much arch work. Thanks for the info i better get some then lol, I've got camber upfront so 8mm spacers shouldnt cause me too much aggro. I've got 165/50 nankangs nsII on the way so with the stretch and camber i shouldn't have to much problem. where can i get 8mm spacers from?

I have no idea where to get them. I'm running 3mm with calipers ground down. My bullets are the first design so they might have changed it on the second design which you have. Just bolt one wheel on the front and tighten it up then check if it spins.

Cheers mate, I will hav a bash at bolting them on when I got tyres for them :)
