thanks dude

they are 18x8.5J ET45, with 25mm adapters, (so ET20) but I am getting 5-10mm more on the back (gonna borrow some 5mm's off a mate, see what they sit like)
215/40/18 tyres (closest rolling radius to my standard wheels)

thanks Araz, much appreciated man :D

I went out in cov with old uni mates (student style baby)

I finished work half day, went to get a baguette from a place by uni, parked right outside (there are 2 halls near there) and they have to walk past to get to most buildings

As I was getting a baguette, loads of people were walking past, stopping, looking, checking it out, even some chinese students saying "ohhhhh look at this" while pointing etc

Makes it worth while when people appreciate the car, and not judging it as modded so they assume its just gonna be owned by someone who just races around, even had a chat to one guy who was asking loads about it :love:

made me smile :D

Looking very good Suj! Totally did not expect that kind of wheels, was kind of expecting something way less subtle, way more "look at me, these wheels are sooooo awesome that they're screaming to be seen!" after you hyped them so much :p But they really are awesome, while still subtle!

thanks MB, much appreciated :)

lol, I did say they are nothing special, just subtle wheels ;)

I think simple wheels like these work perfectly with the Bora, been looking at other wheels, and I don't think there is many that I like, seen a couple in the pipeline :)


thanks Araz, yes it was made for me, and I love it :D but it is nice to get some good comments from people :D

not much planned now, it's my daily, maybe a remap later down the line, but not next month, gotta pay for insurance :( lol

Thanks Araz, much appreciated :love:

it's not as clean as it looks, needs a good detail, I mean full "suj detail", and if the weather is good this weekend, it will be spotless/swirl-less :D

6months, and I haven't detailed it.....feel sooooo bad :'( lol

Meh Suj you shouldn't. I didn't wax the Ibiza for like, 7 months last time. And it is as clean as it looks, at least it's not full of parking dents! :D

Still looks ace though! At first I wasn't really sure how much I liked it, but it's really cool, real fat and wide.

lol, but you seen how clean my ibiza was, when polished and gleaming, makes me smile :D seeing it gleaming

thanks man, much appreciated, what most people said, its because they were all expecting some dished wheels, then I got these lol, need the rear spaced still, and get front arches rolled, so then I can lower the front :)
